OK, post your button mash score AND a score for CombatZeal or Shmups Skill test and I'll make a button mashing table :)

I did have a go at that mashing challenge thing you made a thread about a few weeks back, I don't remember what I got but I know it was less than 100 with manual fire.

haha, its cool that at least one person tried the mashing challenge, I thought that thread would at least bring a couple of competitive souls, guess not many people have the game. Alright, here are my scores. Also, which three games did you play to get that high score in combatzeal, i can bearly make it to 666,000. I'm submitting a shmup skills test, but the score is lower than I know I can do so expect a better one sometime later.

One more thing, I'd like to know which color to choose in that color grabbing game, the only one I've figured out is red, but I still can't consistently identify when it says to get blue or green.

The stages I play are Power Up, SF and 8-Bit. Power Up is by far the highest scoring stage in the game, best I've done there is about 650k but I know that higher scores than that are possible. SF I can do just a shade over 300k if I make a good job of it, and 8-Bit isn't a particularly high scoring stage but I'm crap at the Boss stage and Asteroid is the worst stage for scoring so I never play that. I usually get about 220k from 8-Bit if I make it the end.

To get more points out of Power Up you need to use the power ups to rotate the screen to put a multiplier on everything you kill (x2 for horizontal, x3 for upside down, I did my score only with horizontal). You can increase the multiplier further by using the "enemy power up" power up (and probably speed up as well, but it's too dangerous for me) several times to get a big multiplier on everything. You just need to have a bomb ready at certain points or you're going to die.

I really don't have a clue about this, I just go for the red one and hope it doesn't kill me :lol:

While the Skill Tests in Ge-Sen love and Shooting Love are similar in a lot of ways there's still differences (not least of which the change from vertical to vertizontal) so I'll have to open new table for Shooting Love scores.

Oh, okay. I really didn't understand the difference between TS's different minigame based shmups. Thanks for opening the table :D
EDIT:
Here's my current Exzeal score, as well. I'll probably post more soon as I've just been playing it casually and will doubtless do better than this by accident at some point :P Also, I'd recommend tracking which ship players are using as they play and score quite a bit differently. Maybe also stage?

Lord Hypnos - Unit 4 - 4,140,600

Stage 3 boss if you're keeping track

ExZeal

Enigma- Unit 3e - 6,673,840 - Stage 3


Still messing around with the different choices. Don't really care too much for Unit 4 as that wiggling stuff just gets me killed. Unit 3e(selected by choosing Unit 3 as the timer is on 13 at least for P1 side, not sure if it's different for P2) is pretty cool, low # of shots, and has to point blank stuff for the multiplier making it very risky.

Unit 4 might be better for scoring(x12 multiplier vs. 3e's x11). Unit 1 gets up to x16 but seems to lose out due to that having to hit lots of enemies with charge shot.

This run died before stage 1 boss, died during stage 2, then died to Stage 3 boss.

I've credit fed the game up to Stage 6 to get an idea of what's coming on some other runs but still don't have Stage 4 or 6 unlocked for Score Attack(stage 4 instantly ends if you die even once on it)

ExZeal

Zaarock - Unit 1 - 9,892,380 - Stage 6

(stream highlight)

Haven't done many runs but here's a score I guess. Not a fan of stage 3 but otherwise the game seems pretty fun. First time reaching stage 6. Getting multipliers on stage 3 and 5 bosses would probably be worth like 6 million by itself heh

Unit 1 gets up to 16x multiplier, but 4 might be better for scoring. Looking at a type 4 replay from the leaderboard it seems you can milk the respawning turrets of the stage 3 boss for a long time, and similar milking on other bosses. The online leaderboards are sort of barren, I wonder if there's so few players because the scoring for the game is broken somehow

I use auto wiggle, but yeah, you kind of have to get used to only being able to move vertically, effectively when actively sideshotting. Then again there are parts where you can actually just camp in one spot and autowiggle pretty safely. In particular, I found stage 3 a lot easier than with Unit 1
Unit 4 might be better for scoring(x12 multiplier vs. 3e's x11). Unit 1 gets up to x16 but seems to lose out due to that having to hit lots of enemies with charge shot.
I think this is probably true. IIRC, the top scorer on the online leaderboards is using Unit 4. That being said, I'm barely bothering with score, as I'm really just playing it casually, and also not a big fan of milking which is probably where a lot of score comes from in this game.

Added the scores and changed the format to what I usually go with.

I'll probably grab a physical copy of this since I don't already have it and there's no internet to download it at my place.

I've had this for about two months, been enjoying the Skill Test immensely.

Shmups Skill Test (Shooting Love 200X, Japanese ver.)
Icarus - 460,620


Image Image

I wasn't recording this, sadly, as I was just having a laugh on the game with a friend of mine who was visiting.
179k from the Tank Rush, but a substandard Orb Evasion, about lv45 if I remember correctly, so this could be further improved to well over 500k if I cut out all mistakes. Everything else was bang-on.
I have had a 9.76 rating before (near perfect), but on a lower scoring run.

Very impressive. I haven't lasted until the end on either of the tank rushes on Ge-Sen Love but I've lasted into the 90's on both of them, best I've done on Tank Rush A is about 109k, Tank Rush B (the one with the Dreamcasts) seems pretty crap for scoring, so maybe the Shooting Love tTank Rushes have higher scoring potential (or I'm just not very good :lol: ). I've got a copy on the way so I will check it out soon.

Once Tank Rush A(Ge-Sen Love) gets to about level 70-80 it's in the lap of the gods whether I get hit or not.

What's the order you would optimally want in Skills test anyway? The Meteors definitely seem better than Boards and Tank A is obviously the high scoring first stage. Once I get to the high levels, it pretty much feels like luck though, but maybe there's a strategy that would be useful. I'm a lot better with Tank B and I should be able to hit my score goal even with that, so I only reset if I get 8 Bit first.


I'm not sure which of the bullet dodge and building/orb dodge is actually better for score(though bullet dodge B is a lot easier to clear than A is and I tend to get screwed on both orb/building dodge most of the time).


I wonder if the "quiz" minigame is any good for score. I would hope not considering how stupidly rare the thing is, but the one time I saw it, I pretty much quickly failed it cause I didn't really know what was happening. Medal collection seems to be one of the better ones for the ones that don't have a level counter though is quite random, and as well as the one for shooting the thing down quickly. The rocket one seems pretty bad since even if you damage the rocket a lot then shoot the things off it doesn't seem worthwhile. The holdout one seems okay too since there's at least 8 +1,000 score things hidden that I'm aware of and maybe there's some others.


Nice Bombs should be worth at least 100,000 in a good run. For the first one I've gotten 2 bullets and the enemy in nice bomb range occasionally for +30,000. In the second one, my best was either +70,000 or maybe a bit more from just the ones that were close, but usually I just end up with only 4 or 5 nearby.


I'd be fine with a 400,000 score. That'd pretty much require just doing well and not getting bad luck on some of them.

Shmups Skill Test (200X)

Mero - 478,680

Image

As I suspected the 200X Skill Test is way higher scoring than the one on Ge-Sen Love. Tank Rushes A+B and 8-bit are all worth more, the meteor stage is worth about double and you can get a lot more points out of Keep Tidy.

I prefer to go with 8-bit as the first stage, that way I can guarantee at least 140-150k (best I've done is 170k), with the Tank Rushes something's much more likely to go wrong.

I'd say Orb Evasion in 200X is probably harder than Ge-Sen Love, Skyscraper Evasion is easier because in 200X there's nearly always somewhere to escape to, in Ge-Sen Love you need to use ESP to work out where the screen will go or you'll die.

The meteor shower in 200X is worth about 50k-ish, whereas the one in Ge-Sen Love is worth a measly 25k. One reason for this is that in the 200X one you get tick points and bizarrely in the Ge-Sen Love meteor stage you don't. In 200X it's possible to last until the end without the Earth taking any damage, no way can you do this in Ge-Sen Love.

It's possible to get the fire rate a bit higher in 200X, in Ge-Sen Love if you have autofire on all 3 buttons then a shot limiter kicks in if you hold them all down.

And yeah, Boards is a total score killer, it's only worth something like 15k.

199k from Tank Rush A. Hibachi and Orb Evasion both weren't that great (about level 60 each) but everything else was good.

Scores in excess of 600k are definitely possible but you'd have to pull off near perfection to do it.

How do you even score that high in Tank A? or even Tank B? For both of them, I tend to be around 120,000 even if I do make it near level 99.

There's a definite technique to to it, you have to constantly strafe from one side of the screen to the other, hugging the bottom of the screen as you go across then pushing slightly up a bit as you get to the side and shooting all the tanks that are coming onto the screen, then going back in the opposite direction and doing the same thing.

Avoid Tank Rush B, it's the lowest scoring of the 3.
