Score bug?

Randorama · Post by **Randorama** » Thu Feb 03, 2005 9:01 am

Yes, it seems that on some bosses, if you meet some requirements, the scores for destroying single parts go crazy, like getting 95M on Folding Fan.I think that it's based on leaving some tentacles intact while revealing the inner parts of the boss, or something like that.I noticed a similar event on Prickly Angler-I once, wonder if it works on other bosses though.

Andi · Post by **Andi** » Thu Feb 03, 2005 10:01 pm

I had to 1CC it again for the new thread because the game doesn't save your scores. I think my score is lower too. Blah.

Just got this tonight, here's my best run:

alpha5099 - 1,966,670 - ABDHL

I'm playing on Saturn defaults, there's rapid fire, but I don't know if that means I go in the other table. Also, Guardian Knight's and Landshark's scores are in the wrong places.

There's auto-fire, but it's not particularly rapid unless you put in the controller code (which I can't recall off the top of my head).

Also, Guardian Knight's and Landshark's scores are in the wrong places.

Whoops. Fixed.

Yeah. On that first wave of bullets (right when the encounter starts) I've never been capable of doing anything but bugging out and bombing.

I don't know how you guys handle this game. It just destroys me. If I die, it's all over.

If you lose the ability to shoot through walls after stage 4, I just don't see any way of recovering.

And the bosses, they are just beasts (I love the boss fights, but damn are they hard). I play through mame, and use the rapid fire that one of the roms has. It's a slow rapid fire. On some bosses I use 2 fingers on the shot button to shoot faster. Even then, some of the bosses have attacks I haven't figured out how to dodge consistently.

Yeah, that's why I love this game. The trick is to get powered up quickly so that you can waste the enemies pretty easily (before they can unload a wave of bullets) and as for the bosses...just memorize their attacks and get over your initial fear of their seemingly undodgable waves of crap (that was my problem for the longest time). Plus, you get a really sweet bomb that kills everything on screen and destroys all bullets for a good period of time. That helps a lot. Extra bombs can be found every couple of levels too.

Be careful on powering up the main shot- if you max it out, you'll be getting a major rank increase. You can get the level 5 Red Wave and stop the rank at 12/15 by not maxing it out. Higher rank means that bosses take fairly longer to kill, according to Randorama's GD.

Just started playing this seriously. I've read your ST Randorama, but I still have no idea how you got that score.
Capture and shoot everything + find all bonus items and pick them up correctly, is that it?

EDIT: Ah, could end bonus be the key?

Bingo! There is a fat bonus for each left over life and bomb.

This score is a few weeks old. I made it half-way through the final boss, but it's real tricky. I'll try to play some this weekend, and hopefully 1cc it. I'm suprised to have gotten so far considering how little I've played this game.
