Yeah, some shmuppers do have really nice handwriting like yours, Makoto Sei. I've been complemented on my handwriting as well. Since I'm an artist, it is a nice gift/talent to have, indeed. ^_~

I was at a local Best Buy store one time and wrote out a personal check. The Best Buy sales associate who rung up my purchase said that my handwriting was the most beautiful that he had ever seen. I thanked him for that nice compliment. He also said that he wished that he could write like my writing style. For some folks, nice handwriting is effortless and comes naturally. So be it. ^_~

Maybe the harder difficulties could be unlocked from the start?

waw !... this is beyond expectation ! but thank you very much for the complement :D i really never imagine that some shmuppers have nice handwriting, and i myself never consider as one of them too :D

Ahahahah, i believe so. That why i`m considering to giving subtitle to this concept as : " Killing both the developer and the player in one title "

Maybe the harder difficulties could be unlocked from the start?
Hmm... i think you`re right. Hiding the last 2 difficulty level would worth for nothing :D

Think about a variation of the name similar to those like "Broken Thunder", "Thunder Future", etc... avoid "Thunder Force" exactly.

How about "Thunder Drive"? I don't have many name ideas, to be honest.

edit: Any mods think this should be moved to Development?

To be Honest, i just wish some one from STG project of SEGA or Tecnosoft team would see this concept and consider to realize it.... but i believe it would be very selfish of me. Another name ? i would use : " Last Thunder" :D
Just wait the rewrite version of this concept and i believe you would understand why i choose that name :)

move it to development ? hmm.... okay, i`ll post the concept that i have rewrite there later. At least, i`ll use this tread as bait so people`s attention could dragged here :twisted:

Thank you for the advice

I don't like the fact that you need to beat the game over and over again to unlock stuff. In TF6 you need to beat the game 15 times to unlock all the reports, that's just stupid. In this one you need to beat it six times just to unlock the harder difficulties and face the TLB, and god knows how many to unlock the Digital Viewer contents. I want to replay a game because I like it and want to score higher, not because of unlockables.

All ships should be unlocked from the start (except the very last one, maybe), and if the player manages to beat the last boss on the default difficulty or higher on a single credit, then he'd have access to the TLB fight and once he beats it, then everything else would be unlocked. That's much better IMO.

And remove the option to 'sit back and enjoy' the backwards stages. Come on, an option to skip 3 stages?

No matter how good a game is, somebody will always hate it. No matter how bad a game is, somebody will always love it.

The good thing about this is that there's not one single line about the gameplay. How the game will play, level design... stuff that really makes a game, ya know? :D

Ahahahaha :D i know i would receive this kind of comment. My reason is : to increase the replay value. i know it`s sound ridiculous, but do remember one thing, there is also a group of people who like to play the game that think :" what to be unlocked next ".... and i`m one of them :o, and most of Asian people play a game not only for score, but more about: " what the story, what the secret, and so on and so on". Ah`, i`m also want to say: no one forced to unlocked all the secrets. If you feel satisfied with those already unlocked things, than its okay. But i believe you could not stand the locked things to stay on your gallery aren`t you :twisted:

Heheheheh :twisted: is there another one who have the same thought as him ? :D don`t worry, i`m also on your side
Nice job Ghegs, now nobody will read it. :S
Don`t worry, there is always a way for those who believe :D

Easy man, easy. We proceed slowly :D

Why not unlock everything if the game is cleared in a single credit (provided the game isn't ridiculously easy)?, like how Treasure did it with Ikaruga?

That way you'd satisfy both people out for "replay value" and those who go for the clear.

I don't write joined up as instructed at school. I think my handwriting is clearer and more defined just as the deviantart illustration shows :D
