Twinbee

Don't get any power ups. Just get the yellow bells so you can rack up a huge amount of points.

In the original Twin Bee, I can manage to score more than 650,000 points before reaching level 4 ...

Honestly, just grab a speed-up or two (And they are easy to get), a double shot, and forget everything else, go for score. The extends are worthy

I just can't play TwinBee, if I shoot, I can't get power up, if I don't, I just got killed...

Any tips in playing this game?

Try mixing it

Seriously, he's only trolling, guys. Don't waste your time.

I remember buying Twinbee Deluxe Pack on E-Bay and thought to myself, "Why couldn't Konami have done this game as a serious vertical shooter instead of an ultra-kawaii shooter?" Why couldn't Konami do Twinbee as a serious shooter instead of a cute one where the character designs are more like Rayearth?

Who said Konami is not serious?

Konami had done a seriously cute shmup in TwinBee.

I just can't play TwinBee, if I shoot, I can't get power up, if I don't, I just got killed...

Yeah, it takes a while to get accustomed to bell-catching. My advice is - train yourself with Yahho-! that has plenty of ground powerups ready to pick up.

It`s like taking The Life Of Brian and transforming it into a historically correct documentation of the life and death of HIS son.

Hahahahaha, great comparison mate.
I never liked Twinbee much (although to be fair I have'nt given it much of a chance), but I love the Parodius games. If parodius was to be without the cutesy characters and wacky weapons (SHAVING IS BORING), it would lose all of it's charm.
