Like to fall back on this one when I'm frustrated by Hard mode
Only a slight increase, don't think I could get much higher than that. Was playing through, practising getting the milestone logos for Hard mode, and just realised I had topped my old hi-score.
Got to TLB again, 4 lives intact. Still couldn't get his energy down more than 50% though. Think I need some advice on this one.

Hard is only slightly more difficult than Normal. The hardest part is trying not to get killed when collecting the Milestone logos. The only guide you really need is to watch Kiken's superplay. After one viewing that was all I needed.BulletMagnet wrote: Not even going to bother with Hard mode until I can finish Normal...and that stage 4 boss still has my number.
I bought a 32" LCD a few weeks back and I'm scared to tate the thing in case it breaks it. But because I have so spoiled with tate in the past I can't bring myself to play any shmups until I either find out if it's safe to rotate it, or find a cheapo standard tv instead. Then I will go for the ALL, as I know I can.
Lack of interest in this title is a bit saddening as I believe it's on a par with Homura as one of the more recent over-looked shmups.

I did watch Kiken's replays once, back before I bought the game to get an impression of it, but I haven't watched them since, and have thus forgotten most anything tip-wise they contained (including the whereabouts of the logos). Then again, I prefer not to watch superplays or otherwise get too much help from others if I can help it...I at least want to try to 1CC the thing by figuring stuff out on my own, and then maybe get some help when it comes to uber-scoring and whatnot.g19 wrote:The only guide you really need is to watch Kiken's superplay.

If the upcoming Wii port ever makes it here maybe that'll boost interest...I prefer Radirgy to this, but I still enjoy it, and have been finding myself going back to it quite a bit...Lack of interest in this title is a bit saddening as I believe it's on a par with Homura as one of the more recent over-looked shmups.

clp, please make sure that you're using the correct all when signifying a clear on Hard.
All (uppercase a, lowercase ll) indicates that you beat the game without triggering the last boss (not collecting all five MileStone logos)
ALL (written completely in CAPS) indicates that you beat the game by finishing off the TLB (collected all 5 MileStone logos).

Thanks. I played the 4th boss and the whole 5th stage with my last life, I didn't think I could make it to the end
I'll try to improve my score and collect the Milestone logos which I find very difficult.
Maybe you can also answer my Karous questions in the Strategy forum?

multiple 1CC for hard mode too but no saves... (milestone programers = alcool addict ?) But I've never seen the TLB.
This is in french but I wrote a karous' test on schmup.com.
