Still struggling with the game despite unlocking six credits already... How long does it take to unlock more credits in the game, again?

Or just buy the original. Still got an extra sealed LE of this.
Open for offers.

But it's expensive. I'm better off with emulators.

Only the real thing... :wink:

But if you can't afford... I'd use any option available too to play this gem of a game.
It's cream of the crop and in general one of the best shmups ever made!

I'm already playing it on NullDC, and I'm struggling with it.

Can't help but think I opened Pandora's Box playing this game... It's hard as hell and I can't reach Stage 6C no matter what I do. It's no wonder why games like this aren't released across America.

I put about 10-20 credits into BD while it was at the late Southtown Arcade in San Francisco. Excellent soundtrack and some fun bosses, but scoring routes rely on being on specific borders it seems; a single death can throw a run entirely out of order. Not for the faint of heart.

All I want to do is reach 6C and beat it and be done with it.
