Wow, someone has certainly got their money's worth! GG on that nice clear score zoydo, and it seems like you're on a roll today with how many scores you've posted in the forums :mrgreen:

I don't know the specifics, but I wonder if Needle is the 'best scoring' char because his shot is weaker, making milks longer. I at least feel like his shots are weaker, vs Appli who has a very powerful shot.

I have updated and fixed some mistakes in the boards as well.
This is out digitally now, so don't delay in adding your scores!

@EmperorIng: Thank you! :)

Yeah i really enjoy Cotton Reboot and played it quite a bit over the last weeks.

I didn't really try milking the bosses yet, but regarding the leaderboards, Needle seems to be the best character for scoring, so i guess you're right about that. What i also like about Needle is the shots firing from the back. That makes it more comfortable to deal with the enemies coming from behind and to control the screen overall.

The scores for GG Aleste 1+2 and G.Darius are from earlier this year, i just realised i didn't post them to the threats yet.

Arrange Hard :
Palgork - 1.125.613.810 - 7 - Needle - PS4 - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5jwhiGh1YE8

My 3rd attempt on this difficulty : Next target, a 1B run with a clear (I cleared on my 2nd run but with a low score).

The boss milking is way harder in this difficulty, due to the massive health of adds.

Sorry I've been lax on updating this thread; I promise I will do so tomorrow! I've been keeping tabs on the handful of scores and it is nice to add some more to Hard!

Has the steam port been fixed up yet I wonder?

BIG Update! Thank you for everyone being patient. My apologies for taking months to update all the scores, but every one that has posted should be on the score board now. If I missed one, let me know!

I have also finally, to the best of my knowledge, moved all the arcade, x68000, and pc engine scores to the new thread. Hopefully that should be that and people can get back to juggling crystals now and forever!!!

(not really sure if it's worth posting marus' previous, and higher score on x68000, vs the one he specifically posted for this thread. I thought I would at least mention it again)

Nice job! Iconoclast just posted a replay for Arrange normal that would top the leaderboard, I hope he graces this topic with his presence :P

When I was watching it I was taking note of how I too could get a 1 billion score.

Perhaps against my better judgment, I double-dipped on Cotton Reboot during the steam sale. Silk's closed eyes demonstrate her resigned disappointment. This port's lack of a full-screen button (having to ALT+Enter to get it to fullscreen) and 720p resolution is shamefully lazy, BEEP really did not care about this one. But hey, it plays fine otherwise.

Image

First time booting the game, I got a 1cc, and a slight new best as well, which is pretty nice all things considered. Extremely rusty having not played this game in many months. I was down to the wire on the Wool fight at the end, but just kept cool and focused on getting barriers over and over. Too bad I couldn't activate any juicy fevers on that gal. 8)

And hey, why not one more for good measure! Still plenty of mistakes and I can swear I used to get 150m in stage 1, but still a win is a win. I also recorded the run testing out how to get OBS to recognize this damn game (it's a little bit of pain).

Keep 'em coming! Most of the time I can usually keep up with them... if not I just don't update for a while 8)

Replaying the game the other day made me remember how hard it is to see what exactly is going on when the score multipliers get out of control. I still hope I can pull off a 1billion+ score in Normal.

A bump to say that I think I've updated everything properly. Once again my apologies for a super long delay... The result of putting too many scoreboards in a single topic (and the good problem of having motivated players).

For future posters, please consider making sure you post in the format I have in the OP. The post above was added but having to put in the information manually makes it even harder for me to feel like updating the thread! :oops:

Always. 8)

On a side note, wonder if we should separate X68000 scores from the Reboot port's "X68000 Mode"? From the brief time I was able to play Reboot, I noticed a fair amount of things got reprogrammed (some of which were an improvement, others not so much...)

- Barrier doesn't extend your hitbox like it does in the original, which is a plus if you still have barrier active during Tea Time (also allowed for a rather dumb scoring tactic on the stage 2 midboss, where you can park next to him and "buzz" him with your barrier for 10 pts. per frame)
- All crystals cycle to blue first (a huge boon for playing on You Do difficulty, since barrier magic is your lifeline in that mode)
- All crystals only give you 1 extra magic spell, even the big ones that gave you 4 in the original X68K version
- Boss health is much larger (I time over'd on the Snake boss every single time, this never happens to me on the original)
- Point blanking no longer seals revenge bullets in You Do mode (and assumedly Hardest, as well)
- I think ramming into big enemies with barrier didn't generate as much score? (I have no way of double checking, so don't quote me on this one)

P.S. was messing around with the PCE port for the first time in forever, made some modest gains. With better Tea Time luck in loop two, I should be able to reach 650K... this'll do for the time being, though.
