I really don't understand how you guys get these scores. Mine is too small to mention.

Tons of practices and meditations...

I've had this game for two years, and for the love of the Christ on crutches... I can't even manage to break more than 10 million points at all.

Ninja Edit: Oh, and credit-feeding it like fat kid and his horde of cupcakes.

My highest score is about 5.6 million. I have about 20-25 hours on it. I can't chain for anything past level 2!!!

Shit, at least you can chain well past than I can. I can only probably chain upwards to 70-80 in chapter 1 then I'm done for the rest of the game as I feebly try to chain from here and there while surviving at the same time, let alone trying to 1CC it.

Edit: Oh, and I've got about 30-35 hours on this game, and I've owned it for two years. That probably explains a lot why I suck at it.

We should start some kind of 'support' thread where some shmuppers who are Godly at Ikaruga can contribute their strategy tips and whatnot to help us get better at chaining and scoring. That would be helpful because most of the Ikaruga tutorials out there that I've found are mostly in Japanese.

Ikaruga.co.uk has a strategy section that does just that.
No matter how good a game is, somebody will always hate it. No matter how bad a game is, somebody will always love it.

That's a 401-584-546-602-523+4ex, dying in Ikaruga is so very costly.

Oh, thanks, Ghegs and Plasmo for the Ikaruga.co.uk link. I appreciate it!

Now time for me to get better at it... (Which probably won't happen 'cause I suck so hard at it.)

Even though my score is complete and utter crap (at least when compared to the rest of the submitted scores), I'm still going to post it just so I have even more motivation to improve.

Uh oh, I forgot to add that, as weird as it is, although in the breakdown it says Hard Mode, that score was achieved in Normal Mode. Sorry for the inconvenient.
Anyway I have a Hard Mode score too, though it isn't any 34M - I still need a lot of practice in this mode!
