I would like to highlight a few things for anyone looking to play this game for score:


  • The lock-on radar which appears on top of most large enemies isn't simply visual flair, as I first assumed. Instead, this acts as a timer and you are encouraged to speed kill.

  • Each stage has its own no-miss bonus worth 100,000 points. Or perhaps more accurately this should be named the no-damage bonus, considering taking a hit while shield is active will invalidate the bonus.

  • In a nod to the Darius series, hovering your ship over certain locations will give you point bonuses. One example is when you kill the enemy in stage 1 which resembles the tentacle monster from Thunder Force III's underwater stage, fly over where its "corpse" for 8180 points.

  • There are hidden 1UPs in stages 2 and 6. I'll take screenshots of their locations sometime and add them here.

Got a clear of this back in March. I think the latest version then was 1.2, not 1.2a.

I'll learn how not to suck at video games, eventually. Maybe.

Oh, hey. I got a clear this time, despite the final boss kicking my ass. Wish this game had stage select.

Took a couple shield hits on final boss, but did not die. Had a death on stage 4, of all things. I think maaaybe I'll hit 17 million with a no-miss, if I'm lucky.

At least I died to the final boss this time. While I adore this game, I think I'm gonna quit for now. Lack of stage select is beginning to frustrate me.

Managed a no-miss run. I don't have the patience for a no-damage run, considering stage select isn't an option. Great game, though.

Cool. Maybe I should try a serious run.
