Mushihime-sama & 1.5 (PCB / PS2 / X360)

[Kiwi]

Hey guys, I'm new here on the forums and I look forward to talking about shmups . I had a great run in my favorite bullet hell and I figured I'd add it to the leaderboard.


Arrange (Steam Version)

Kiwi - 23,478,685,584 - ALL (Lx2) - Steam - A+ 1/2, C+ 1/4 from stages 1-3, then after I beat the stage 3 boss I switch C+ to 1/5 for the rest of the run

Just my second 1cc but it's still quite a step up from before. Could've saved 2-3 lives if I didn't choke and get nervous on stage 5.

[EmperorIng]

So where does the gigantic score from in Original mode? No Miss'ing the game? Or that enigmatic "rapid fire glitch" I've heard about?

1.0 - Original - no rapid
EmperorIng - 9,449,194 - ALL (Lx0) - PC

[Mero]

^^ I think it's 10million X lives remaining at the end.

[EmperorIng]

An ESPGaluda situation, eh? Damn, looks like I got some improvements to make.

[Aquas]

Nice scores! I'll update the leaderboard soon

[Aquas]

We are all updated.

Also, to update my Arrange score...

Posting a small score but a personal big win for me.
Finally got to 1cc 1.0 Original with S-Shot.

Editing this to include my 1CC Maniac 1.0 (finally!) I just got (June 27th).

I was going for the no-miss but this will do for now

Strangely enough, this is my fav mode when it comes to scoring (followed by Original 1.5 MAX), held back a bit by stages 1 and 3 and the score glitches from bombing a midboss. I've compiled the whole scoring system in this mode AFAIK:

Spoiler

The bulk of the score (up to 51.5M) comes from not dying. The world record is 68M.

The rest of the points come from:

- Gems from bushes in stage 2.
- Remaining legs in the 2nd boss (6 x 180k)
- Destroyed wings in the 3rd boss (6 x 100k)
- Bomb tricks/glitches* in mid-bosses (~1M)

- Gems from cancelled bullets
- Destruction (for both points and gems)

- Tick points
- A couple of speed kills
- Boss 1 milking (first phase)
- Stage 3 milking


*killing a mid-boss with a well timed bomb grants extra points (especially in stages 2 and 5).

SMC found out how this midboss-multiplier trick works:

Mid-bosses are composed of several hitboxes and damage is applied to them in a specific order. The number depends on the mid-boss, so that makes the max "multiplier" different for each. It looks like they have 9, 2 and 5, making the scorpion the most lucrative.

In order to get the full multiplier, you have to kill it with a bomb covering all the hitboxes. But to get maximum points you also want the very first hitbox tested for damage to receive the killing blow (the later in the sequence the hitbox that receives the killing blow from the bomb is, the fewer points you get). It then still has to go through the collision detection for all the other hitboxes. You get the points again for every hitbox that is hit after the midboss is already dead.

The position of the midboss matters a lot too, especially in stage 2. If you bomb when the midboss is too high, some of the hitboxes will be missed.

In the end, it doesn't seem like something that'd be easy to manipulate. If the bomb does X damage (per hitbox) on the kill frame, you have to have no more than X HP left on the midboss at the start of that frame. The thing is you also have to point blank with supershot for most of the bomb to drain enough HP, but shooting at the kill frame is to be avoided (if a single bullet from your shot hitting a specific hitbox is what kills it you'll be guaranteed the minimum points), making any fine tuning pretty much impossible.

Hello people, there's been some scores to be posted here for a while. I apologize. I'll attempt to have the board updated soon. That being said, clearly the dedication isn't there on my part. If anyone would like to volunteer to run the thread, let me know.

[Aquas]

All updated. I did not include Kiwi's custom external auto scores as those do not fit the criteria of "standard autofire".

Fair enough about the autofire thing.

I believe you missed my no autofire Ultra score in the actual table for the category though, but I've done a better run since then so I'll post a new one here

Ultra - Kiwi - 872,905,170 - Stage 5 - PCB - No Autofire



What do you think about using autofire built into fightsticks/brook UFB boards/converter dongles? In my personal opinion I think that would make sense to be allowed. Disallowing all the external program stuff is fine by me, though. It was always a bit of a meme for me to use all that stuff anyways.

Also, I'm down to take over the board if you want.

[davyK]

Just so I can prop up the board.. PC version.
