How many levels are there in Cho Ren Sha?

Is level 6 the final level? Am I really this close to beating the game? I keep dying at the level 6 boss. I remember hearing somewhere that there are 8 levels, but it just feels like level 6 is the end. Of the first loop, of course. Someone correct me.

7 stages
2nd loop has true last boss and aimed revenge bullets, but otherwise same as first (or, basically you can do 2nd loop if you can do first loop)

Havnt played the game in like 2 years but I think theres 7 levels.

Damn, beaten to the punch by show sama. At least my post was more informative

EDIT: OH so now you edit your post to be even more informative!!! Cheating.

also, it might help if you know the tripower up thing

go into the center of powerups, stay there and you get all 3 (I do 3 down taps to stay there)

Also you can make the 1st boss shoot itself.

also the 2nd and 7th boss have milkable things if you let them live long enough

The background never actualy changes.

shoe-sama · Post by **shoe-sama** » Fri Nov 30, 2007 8:47 am

it changes colors for 1 whole stage

Macaw · Post by **Macaw** » Fri Nov 30, 2007 8:47 am

Changing colors doesn't count.

Slap Fight, Tatsujin, and Batsugun are three games by Toaplan in the high score table.

There are 8 loops in cho-rensha, with a true boss in every second one. Each loop should be harder (while the 8th one feels alot easier than some previous loops) and gives you more points. Highscores up to 46 million are possible in the last two loops.
By the way the explosion in the beginning of stage 1 is obviously caused by the stage 0 boss, but you didn't kill him when you start playing, zomg time paradox o_O

you can cheat and play the game with ultralag by loading the game when it's readjusting other open windows (i.e. keep an internet window open, open then close CRS, then open again while it's adjusting your window shit)

Shoe you should write an ST on the game with all your knowledge.

The game should be called Shoe Ren Sha.

Does anyone know of a way to change the keyboard setup? The number one thing I hate about PC shooters is that they often force me use my right hand to move without any way to change the key setup.

shoe-sama · Post by **shoe-sama** » Sat Dec 01, 2007 12:29 am

use joy2key or some other key mapping prog

Like what? I don't own a joystick.

If anyone is really that interested in the game: http://shmups.system11.org/viewtopic.php?t=3189

By the way in case you never noticed through the whole game there reappear bigger versions of weak enemies: The stage one midboss, the big guys in stage two, the big rocket guys in stage 6 and awesome enough you self as stage 0 boss, even with a similiar pattern to your shot (the list might be longer don't know at the moment).
I always wanted to make a big image of all the parts (with nothing destroyed and no stray bullets) of the stage zero boss but I totally lack the editing skills for that (and I'm way too lazy to wait for all the perfect shots

). Anyone up to the job?

[EDIT]: For more replay viewing pleasure: press "g" to fasten the play up, press "f" to slow it down again, if you minimize your window while it's sped up, the replay runs very fast (though you can't see anything ).

i made a hard mode run right now that failed
5-0 16.9M =(

not bad for being out of practice though
