Cleared Psychic 5 with all the secret/magical bonuses. Probably the best nmk game pre thunder dragon 2; its crazy how much depth there is to getting the bonuses/ food sets in the correct order while managing hammer swing counts.

Stunning result, Maximo. May I use the video as a reference in my squib for the game? The current video is a placeholder, frankly.

[maximo310]

That's fine with me

[Randorama]

Thank you!

Being an inveterate TIME GAL lover, I got the recent "HD*" re-release that just came out on Steam (after being on consoles for a while). I don't have as much desire for Ninja Hayate (who wants to control some goofy quasi Zenigata-looking ninja when you can watch the lovely Reika?) so I skipped on that one, for now.

Surprisingly I managed to snag the 1cc after only a few hours of play, which is funny because I really struggled with the Saturn port I had back in the day. I think because this new port has a practice feature that lets you play any individual "stage" which meant I could quickly memorize the inputs.

After a few 1cc's I decided to take it up a notch and get the steam achievement "Time Master" which was to 1cc the game on the hardest difficulty - this removes all the arrows and button prompts! A true test of reflexes... and pure memorization!

Anyway, I did a run that was only one-miss, but decided that something was missing. Half the fun is watching all the silly and (titillating?) scenes of Time Gal's chibi for being manhandled, so I recorded a new 1cc on the hardest difficulty with a bunch of deaths to show some of my favorite fail scenes! Yes, I am crazy! And yes, that clip of the asshole dude laughing at you ultimately is the funniest thing in the game.

Time Gal, Hardest Difficulty 1CC Anime Theater!

*It's not really HD, much to my chagrin. Just a kind of hacky-uprez to 720p... Nonetheless it's the best the game has looked since the laserdisc original, despite a few scenes looking pretty lousy quality-wise.

Absolute Kino. Not just a game, a COIN-OPERATED MOVING PICTURE (■｀w´■)

Haha, this is quality entertainment.

I remember spending a weekend with a Sega/Mega CD rental disc. I think I had a 1cc on VHS from those sessions.

Messing around with Elevator Action Returns S-Tribute tonight and got another very hard no death clear with Edie and a personal best score of 400,300. I was just playing for survival, but I guess playing for score in EAR is milking kills until you’re forced to move on.

[Daytime Waitress]

Never played it myself, but I'm glad you weren't too harsh on yourself for taking a few hits - you were stylish when you needed to be, and some of those multi-kills were utterly clinical.
Very enjoyable watch!

Thanks, and glad you enjoyed. Yeah I can’t be bothered with no-damage runs. I don’t have the reflexes or skill for that. No-death runs already take a lot of planning and execution. It’s not a particularly difficult game, but there are a few points that are almost determined by luck with RNG spawns and eaten inputs.

I’m working on a deathless Kart run. He’s probably the more difficult character to use. His sprite sticks up a bit when he fires from crouching (he can be hit by a low shot when he should be safe) and his bombs require timing to be effective. Lots of ammo conservation by melee and alternating bomb and rocket launcher use. He’s cool as fuck though. Just striding around with one hand in a pocket, taunting enemies.

Are Afterburner and Starfox SHMUPs? Is Rogue Flight? I don’t know. I’ll just post this here.

Here’s my new game no death extreme difficulty Alpha route clear of Rogue Flight.

I used upgrades as I unlocked them, but this is a fresh save, starting out with nothing.

This is the on-disc version 1.0, which is slightly different than the patched game. Some enemies are more aggressive and some bosses are changed. I think the way the player regains health through combos was also changed.

The game can be rather challenging up to stage 4, with the 4th boss being a monumental pain in the ass in its last phase. Things are more manageable in the later half of the game with some upgrades unlocked. The last boss is a bit of a pushover.

Edit: Here’s a deathless NG playthrough of the latest patch 1.2.0.

I feel like the patched version is easier overall. Some boss attacks are completely removed or are changed. Some of the enemies are less aggressive. Health seems to regenerate slower though. So maybe that’s a way to balance things out. There are also a couple of new enemies, but they don’t aspect much in the way of challenge.

Just finished a Blazing Chrome 1CC on normal. I’ve been sitting on the disc for awhile and I finally decided to pick it up and learn it. Amazing game, 11/10. I’ll explore a hardcore clear later.

[ExitPlanetDust]

And here’s my Blazing Chrome 1CC on hardcore. A bit crazier, but the game is just as generous with extends as it is on normal. It’s closer to Contra or Metal Slug at this level. It’s kind of like Contra Hard Corps if the stages had more meat on the bones.

I finally picked up the disc version of Assault Suit Leynos 2 Saturn Tribute. Here's my no death clear (with an arena win in Stage 3). I accidentally killed the final boss too quick and it hurt my overall score. Ah well, it's good to have this one again. It's a shame that the stages don't have more meat on them, because the gameplay is the best in the series, IMO. Movement is quick, but heavy, and the unlock and loadout system from the first game returns. I love how the player can even get in and customize their suits' specs like a simpler version of Armored Core.

I might come back and try to unlock all of the suits. I think I managed to do it in the Saturn version years ago, but I don't think I had worked out a 1CC as I have here.
