RQ: Deathsmiles 1ups

Post by sven666 »

what triggers the 1 Ups in Deathsmiles?

I never get the life-refill from jitterbug either, is there somekind of criteria to be fulfilled there aswell?

You get the Refill-Poweup if you don't use any bombs on jitterbug. So just don't bomb, it doesn't matter if you get hit 3 or 4 times.

It should answer all of your questions.

so to get 2 extends from the stages i need to take A-1 as the 5th stage and at rank 3 and C2 as the 6th stage also rank 3 ?

Yeah, that should work (but you need to be in death mode for the Halloween Town 1ups, so you'd have to do full rank 3 from the start).

I always beat Jitterburg by using the lock shot,this method kills him faster,you don't even see his last pattern but obviously if you have 1000 at the counter it's not recommended to do it.

I miss this game.

he's not hard at all untill he starts zipping around the screen and bursting into shots, i imagine the lockshot helps quite a bit there tho.. gotta try it out next time..
