Green Wind [PC]

Get the game here. If you somehow have a version besides v1.11, please mention this!
____________________
Nothing fancy here, unless you want to note hitbox display. What the game is programmed in works strangely though:

-If your monitor supports it, go to the Program folder, open fscr.ini in an editor, and change the width and height to 400 and 300.
-Keyboard controls are Shift for normal shot, Ctrl for auto shot, Z for special, and X for bomb. Space and A are still quick reset and pause, like the later games.
-This and Blue Wish are probably broken in some way. Blue Wish is confirmed for nails-hard and luck-based Desperate mode, at least.

Just gave this a test run on keyboard. Not a good or serious score at all lol. Tournament has got me more in the mood to tryout different games though.

Legend Hoamaru - 1, 193, 220 - Stage 2

Seems like special attack is tied to scoring in some way?

Scoring is a little like Dragon Blaze. Enemies drop silver coins (100 points) when you kill them with your regular shot. Killing them with the special attack instead makes them drop gold coins (300 points) and causes canceling (coins per bullet). Silver and gold coins are both worth +1 for your actual coin count, though.

Lots of scoring mishaps but it's a NMNB at least.

Nicely done! That TLB seems like a right jerk.

Got the run with 2 hidden extends finally. Overall scoring's the best I've done so far as well. Not perfect by any stretch but eh, PB is PB.

Finally managed to repeat a 1cc with 2 spare lives, and with a slight score improvement too. Not feeling like uploading the video though because stage 4 was quite a wreck, including 2 misses with multiple bombs in stock.

3-miss. Also managed to get 5 score extends.

Not gonna come back to Easy, possible improvements are too miniscule to be worth it. Might try working on Hell next time.

Never say never, I guess. Did a few random runs and managed to PB twice in a row. Can be further improved, but I doubt it can go far above 33mil.

Possibly important tip: you can have 8 spare lives maximum. For a no-miss play, any score extends that you get above 10mil (one at every 2.5, final stage bonus included) are wasted. So suiciding for bombs is a strategy worth considering. Not sure how useful it is for Easy since there are barely any bomb-worthy patterns (and a stage no-miss bonus can be worth more than that), but you can probably use more lives that way on higher modes if you manage to score really well.
