My pimp-hand is strong.
Hoping to hit this for a couple hours tonight as the weekend is mostly accounted for w/kiddo activities.

After 2 hours just finished trying all sorts of character/stage combinations, and finally nailing down the gold idol locations, I find that Rob is still the dragon man of choice!

Yeah -- and another break from this game !
Back to Ys before I run out of time on that!

I'm hitting 350K-400K every run now. Just put in another 30 minutes after some corned beefy goodness:
484,900 - mjmjr25 - Quaid - 1-5 - Arcade

I can maybe crack 400K, but I don't think I'll ever get out of 1-4. You all own this month.
Bullet hell has always been my weakness, I'll admit.

I got rid of SFxT. Back to DB!
Do you guys have certain standards when doing a real score run. For example, if I die before 1-3 or don't score AT LEAST 150,000 in 1-1, I'll reset the game.

I play each run through - if I by chance die twice in the first 2 stages i'll suicide to get a new run going. I actually tend to have better runs when I'm playing more loose (no bombs, no lives) and can be more aggressive.hashiriya1 wrote:I got rid of SFxT. Back to DB!

Re: Shmup of the Month Club (Dragon Blaze)
If you die before 1-3?!?!?! I wish I did not die before 1-3! On my 398,000 run, I had 2 lives going into 1-3! And my preferred order too! Forest > Desert > Sky > Water!hashiriya1 wrote:I got rid of SFxT. Back to DB!

I also cannot do 150K on 1-1. Best score I managed on 1-1 so far is 142K.
Maybe it is my *standards* that prevent me to get good scores. I don't like losing lives on 1-1. RESET
There's a lot to this bullet hell stuff. You kids!
