Re: Batsugun (normal and special edition)!
I played this wonderful game for the first time today. This was my best of five runs:
SPECIAL EDITION
Necronopticous - 8,768,800 - stage 9 - Iceman (Type C)

drboom introduced me to this at the Chicagoland Winter Carnival (in fact, the APH scores on his image the next post up are mine). Usually I don't give a fuck about manic games, but this one clicked. The proper mix of new and old school.

There's a superplay of the Saturn special ver. up on nicovideo:Andi wrote:So, uh, does anyone have a video that shows how to do the tank trick with Beltiana? Her lock on laser is too unpredictable. It just kills the wrong things and messes the whole thing up. Obviously there is something i don't understand.

I just cleared the first loop for the first time! Now I just need to figure out how to get points.

I would have done much better, but I was distracted by my girlfriend.. I had to yell at her for making me die..

That's a little more respectable. My goal is loop 3 for now.

Re: Batsugun (normal and special edition)!
Just got this amazing game today (saturn), this was my best run out of the first few attempts at Special Version. My god, I love the arrange soundtrack so much! I had one really pathetic death due to un-pausing after I had a quick sneeze (damn ragweed allergies!)...

Longtime since I last played this and made it to the third loop for the first time.
Special
LtC - 9,876,050 - 12 - Beltiana
Now... I should probably figure out how to score in this game.

Chempop - 6,182,930, - 9 - Beltiana
Quick question, besides the "shield", bomb, and loops, and graphics (colors) is Special version different than original in any other ways? (I'm mainly wondering about patterns, damage, overall difficulty etc)
Good job getting to the third loop LtC, I just got to level Nine for the first time.
I still have no idea how to score either, just playing for survival right now.

Been having fun with this one. I like the somewhat casual difficulty compared to some other Toaplan shmups. Just rockin' it in MAME with soundtrack in Foobar2K. The last boss fight is especially cool.

The scoreboard hasn't been updated since September… I guess I'll PM Rando and take it over if he doesn't want to maintain it anymore.

Sorry for the late updates...
Somehow I didn't receive any notifications for a while. Is everything ok?

Missed LtC's Normal score, other than that everything seems fine, thanks. :)

Moozooh, would you like to take the board? On a second thought, I am fine to change hands.

Re: Batsugun (normal and special edition)!
Sure, give me a couple hours to format the new board, and I'll take it.
