[Damocles]

Damocles - Genesis - Easy - 2,264,700 - 2-5

15 lives left...I just quit...so boring...

Only afterwards did I realize the default was "Easy".

[Kollision]

How come do you get more than 4 million in the 1st stage of the 2nd loop - NORMAL?????

4th boss has some tricky patterns.

After maxing out my speed and power, I picked another speedup item and I got 10 extra lives I tried doing this again on my next run but it didn't happen (got the usual 5000 point bonus). Next time I'll try to take a pic of it.

That's the famous 10UP item.

How it appears is a bit of a mystery really. Supposedly it's completely random.

There's a warp zone in stage 5. You are sent to the last stage and get 70k points. I made a thread on the strategy board showing how to find it: http://shmups.system11.org/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=30586

Also, I got the 10UP again in this run (sorry no pics). I noticed that I had exactly 150,000 points when I picked up the item, so it's probably score-related. I'll do some more testing.

Sorry but 1up or 10up are random items. No score-related. You can get 1up or 10up one time in a game. If you get 1up, 10up not appear.

[Ruldra]

Okay, does anyone knows how to make this powerup appear? Please don't tell me it's also random.

[Kollision]

Yes, it's random.

There are 2 ways to obtain special power up (50.000 bonus).

method 1: is random, it appear 1 time for play in any stage.

method 2: (100% chances). I speak about it here, in this my document with all secret about this game (http://www.geemania.net/articles/ita/ki ... mes_01.pdf) but is in italian.

[Kollision]

Holy shit!

[Ruldra]

Nice, thanks for that file. Lots of stuff in there I didn't know about, especially when the bomb appears.

[Ruldra]

Yay!



Ruldra - 2-2 - 1,094,740 - Arcade

Triple KO on the 2-2 boss.

I used the warp to beat the loop so it feels kinda cheap...I'll try beating all stages normally now. I'm also using autofire, but with delay 7 so the game is still challenging.

iatneH gave me permission to take over the thread. Lock this one please.
