Some enemy erasers can do that, if you grab them when they're at the bottom of the screen they'll warp you. They're called Warp Holes and are released from the more face-like Icons (those weird buildings on the ground)Kaiser wrote:Zach, i didn't play 20 games in zanac (ZXZ) to unlock FC Custom I did finish rom version that was enough needed to unlock it : P

I played this game today once again... as I don't have a PS1 memory card anymore, I have to play with the custom ships.
Haven't played it in ages, got to the last stage with ZERO lives and still managed to survive up until the last boss (And I am pretty sure I got a lot of energy from the bitch )
and I just noticed there's not any hi-score with the Hammer Duke.
So, there it goes... I am sure I've done a lot better on the ppast,but oh well
Zanac Neo
Shatterhand - 8970640 - 489 - 32 - Hammer Duke
EDIT:
Just played one more game, and got the 1CC. My "max"s were lower, but I played better overall score-wise.
Shatterhand - 10,088,540 - Max Hit 431 - Max Chain 27 - Hammer Duke .

I don't remember exactly why I booted ZXZ recently, but upon inspection of my scores in original Zanac it seemed I had no good scores saved. I recall getting 14 million in Zanac (Rom Version) several years ago but I guess that was in emulation, not ZXZ.
I have an ALL in Zanac Neo but I have no idea on the Max Hit and Chain for that given run. Perhaps I'll give it another go although it is quite long.
Edit: Here it is.

With a bit more luck/practice, I should have an ALL.

Re: Zanac X Zanac
Omg i just 1cced Zanac neo, first time i ever 1cc a Shmup. Probably one of the easiest to do since it gives you lives all the time.
So here it is
Zanac neo
evilmaxwar - 9,962,960 - 493 - 33 - knife- edge
So short of 10,000,000 ...
*Update* : I tried again today and did better score wise. Less max hits but i completed the game with 29 lives left instead of 6 the first time.

Played this game again. This time, it's improved and recorded for YouTube. I owe Icarus for uploading his score attack replay in that site 3 years ago. I know, there we're lots of mistakes in the replay, but my scoring is not that bad. Replay coming tomorrow.

Very hectic and fun game. Probably the first shmup I ever played in my life.
I triggered some sort of warp on stage 3. I picked up one of those floating bombs and then the stage suddenly ended and I was sent to the next one.

Re: Zanac X Zanac
Discovered this awesome NES shmup a week ago. For some reason, I must confess that I always thought Zanac looked like a low-budget shmup. I surely don't feel that way anymore. Much deeper an fun than I expected. So much hidden stuff in this awesome game!

I lost probably 10-12 lives in that run, and on top of that I found two warps I didn't know of that took me to 5>6 and 6>8, which meant I skipped 3 bosses basically. If this had been all bosses + no miss, it quite possibly could've toppled 15 mil.

Are the boards on this thread still getting updated? I started up a new thread since I saw this one hadn't updated in awhile.
