Well done :::Redsun:::.
Now for the 12,000,000 Western Record set by my friend UBN in 1988 (Turnpike Lane Arcade). One of the sickest 10 hour+ 24 loop credits I've ever witnessed :D

in 1993 was expelled from an arcade in sao paulo Brazil by playing Flying Shark for more than 11 hours with the score of 14,617,980 in that time had worked hard this game ^ ^
I will now try to break my record this season.
I spent two messes without playing the arcade because the owner has banned me from playing the game ^ ^ :oops:

That's heavy stuff luy 8)
I too had mega length credits on Truxton and Fire Shark. The arcade manager switched Truxton off on me when I was 5 hours into a 10,000,000+ credit. I actually crashed out Fire Shark @25,000,000 after 5 hours because I was getting bored. Plus the manager of a Central London arcade whacked the skill level up to 'hardest' on Hellfire to try to reduce the length of my credits. It didn't work :lol:

^Info like this convinces me that you are indeed an excellent player. It would be good in the future if you could get to play Cyvern on the original Kaneko Super Nova System Arcade Cartridge at full running speed :wink: . I'm sure you would notch up a BIG score, but it will be hard to replicate 29.8mil at full arcade board speed.

Ruldra - 464,260 - 80 - RULDRA - MAME - ON/5 - Flying Shark

How many stages per loop this game has?

The first loop has five stages. For some reason, every subsequent loop skips the opening level.

I read in an interview with I think it was Tatsuya Uemara that they removed the opening section from the loops because it was too boring. ^_^

I believe there are other early Toaplan games that do that as well. One of them is Tiger-Heli.

Really? I was expecting a lot more levels since they are so short. Seems like I'm about to beat the loop then.

Done.

Ruldra - 682,070 - 123 - RULDRA - MAME - ON/5 - Flying Shark

Mediocre run, but at least I beat the loop. I really wasn't expecting the game to be so short, but I guess the challenge here is to get a counterstop.

I've been playing this game A LOT lately. Tonight, I finally managed to beat my goal of getting 10.000.000+α by quite a lot. :D

Tvspelsfreak. - 16,641,170 - 999 - ANTON - PCB - OFF - Hishou Zame

The credit lasted a bit over 7 hours. I didn't count exactly, but I think it ended at stage 29-4.

Here's a video showing the result in case the picture isn't enough:

I didn't record this run, but I've got a video of my previous record (8 million) here. My strats haven't changed, so it's basically the same thing, only shorter.

I'm very happy with the score and I'm not gonna try improving it. 7+ hours of non-stop gaming with no autofire can be pretty exhausting...

Hi!

I'd love to pass this thread on if anyone feel up for it. TBH I don't enjoy Sky shark as much as I want to and I'd rather focus on updating my other high score threads. Sorry for not responding to your pm Samurai fox.
