It was like the Twilight Zone in 2-1.

IlMrm - 3,102,380 - 2-2 - Normal
Would've had 2-3 if the rocket didn't misfired on the battleship bridge.
And lost a bunch of points because I used a bomb to killed the last boss.

I No Missed the first loop to the tune of 3.2 million. I only made a very small handful of mistakes (some scoring errors (not having my rocket ready at the appropriate spot or over-drilling a target to have a rocket cause splash damage) mostly in 1-2).IlMrm wrote:Very nice Kiken!
What were some of the details in this run?
Once into loop 2, I just made it a point not to be greedy with my bombs. If things weren't looking good, just let loose a bomb. As a result, I managed to No Miss up until the stage 2-5 mid-boss (both a red and green mine exploded simultaneously as I was drilling the third engine and they caught me). I then managed to perform pretty well up until the 2-5 boss's final form, where I got hit trying to dodge the first lateral volley. This wasn't too bad though, as it set me up nicely to drill the cannon. I then bombed past both volleys after the cannon fired, setting myself up nicely for the final rocket kill. Aside from the errors in 2-5; I made a mess of the 2-4 boss (took way too long to kill), botched my percentage on stage 2-3 (only 80% kill ratio), and missed one of the armoured tanks in stage 2-2 (resulting in 94% kill ratio).
So there's plenty of room to clean up parts of the run. I know that the double suicide in stagee 1-1 grants an additional 400,000 points (having two lives left per stage is a top bonus of 20,000 versus 60,000 for having no lives left... so a 40,000 pt difference per level). But I'm not quite ready to mess with that yet.

Been hooked on UD for the last couple weeks. Trying to crack the first loop, but for now here's a score. ^_^
