This game is great! My score is a little above 4 mil in stage 2. I die a lot in first level as I try to optimize it. I think it ist possible to max medals just before first middle boss! I once maxed out 1 medal after him.

When or what enemies do spawn medals? Is it random? Does anyone know?

Will post my score later.

The Allett 58,623,740 ALL MVS

This run was a no miss until the TLB
I noticed that if you don't get hit by the stage 6 boss you get a big score increase.
I am yet to do a full no-miss run
Main way to get big scores is don't drop a medal...

Wow! Amazing. Do you have a photo or video at all? As it's such a great score, and to set an example and lend this thread a bit of integrity, a phot of your score would be great! (I'll still pop it in now, of course).

And a new one from me...

spadgy - 5,763,570 - S-3 - DC

Time to update (and glad to see new scores here! It was looking like a cringeworthy exercise in my ego for a moment!).

EDIT: And, it's updated. How's your quest going hnns? And the rest of you? Get submitting!

I am the type of guy playing Cave games non stop while making not much of a progress. Amazingly this bothers me not at all. I still love to play them. With Neo Xyx this is somehow different. The game really has a good learning curve (for me) giving me the feeling I can 1CC it, which I am pretty excited about.

So right now I stopped focussing on level 1 details and started to just get as far as possible without dying and then still use continuous to practice the later levels. I am at level 4 right now with a score around 9 mil.

Good work. I've been a little distracted by Twin Tiger Shark, but will get back on Neo XYX this weekend. I need to focus on survival and not scoring for a bit. But I find it so hard to turn a blind eye to scoring, even when I'm no good!

My current weakness is the stage 2 midboss. I rarely down him before time-out and he often downs me!

What is wrong with midboss in second level!? It takes like 7-8 bombs to kill him! Am I missing something here? Thats way too much health points!

Btw, I am at level 4 now with around 15 mil.

Give us a score then! :wink:

Watching a friend play the other day, I think that initially it's the sides of the stage 2 midboss that are the part that needs shooting? And then the centre? Something like that. I've been distracted by playing Chronoblast, but will be back on playing this one soon!

Still accepting really bad scores?

furthest I've made it is the second stage boss, and that's even when I wasn't bothering with chaining :oops:

Dropped the chain which cost me dearly, but I got much further!

Just managed a Full No miss run of the game and my score was still in the 58,000,000 zone so no extra points for lives remaining :(

The allett, you are playing on MVS, correct? Just wondering if you are using the extra gunpods, they seem to be absent from the DC release.

I hadn't played since last weekend and I was rusty, I did manage a slightly better score on my 4th real sitting with the game. Not getting very far in stage 6 yet.

Yes playing on MVS mate, not using extra gunpods! I have a feeling the max score available in this game is 60,000,000.

Sorry all. Update coming this weekend! I've become hellishly busy the past week-and-a-half out the blue and rather neglected my duties. This weekend I will put in all your hard earned scores. Sorry for the delay! And good work on the scores!

Tiny upgrade. Will make a photo when i am over 10 mio.;)

eckart - 9.305.430 - S-3 - DC

The worst thing about this game is this short dying sequence imo.
When they fix this freeze bug, they should work on this, too.
Maybe a warning sound if you died and one sec. more unbreakable.

:lol: That's actually one of my favorite things about the game, because when I botch a run (9/10th of the time), I can suicide to game over faster.

Got the 1CC but it was far from my high score. Unlikely I'll be playing this again any time soon. There is just so much wrong with it. Still fun, just very frustrating.

I kind of agree with this. Since they didn't give us an exit to title option in the pause menu or ABXY support, the short dying sequence is the least they could do :roll:

It is from a video of a run I did last year https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3SG3cBfZ9DE

Btw, I was playing with side pods (are these even available in the DC version?) maybe we should have another section for that?
