The tlb is only available in hard mode and only requires the 5 logos to get to him, for those who dont know the first 2 logos are reveiled with shot 3rd with sword and the last 2 with shield .spectral wrote:Normal mode :

Re: Karous/Karasu
i never thought this game was good, but then i tried it and BOOM! it's great, i can't stop playing it
i can't get past stage 4 mid-boss, his lasers kill me :/
well, for now i'm milking Easy Mode, i'll prolly be back with a better score later

Damn TLB... almost there though ! Does anybody know how much points you get to kill it ? And how do I get to reach 2 billion points in Normal mode ?

Re: Karous/Karasu
2 billion in normal = push hard collect a good few speed up items early on so you can really get around faster to kill etc and milk the bosses as much as poss especially the 2nd . If i remember correct you get 1 mill for tlb .

Re: Karous/Karasu
Love it! Played it casually years ago on DC and have wanted it for Naomi for the last few years. Only recently did I find a deal on it. I've also had Milestone fever lately and needed MOAR after getting Radirgy Noah and Illvelo as well.clp wrote:awesome another player how are you liking the game pixel?

I'm playing primarily with shield and shot. I'm told that's not the best way, that shield/sword is probably the best bet? I still need to try for the TLB...if for no other reason than to just SEE it.
Re: Karous/Karasu
I will go further into strategy later on but bare in mind all 3 weapons are important to power up when i finish the game on either hard or normal all 3 are around 88.

Re: Karous/Karasu
I don't have any scores that can compare to these. Just asking.
Re: Karous/Karasu
That explains it. Been playing the shit out of this (Wii version) recently and loving it. Very addictive. Wondered what I might have missed on the 5th boss (thought I might have to destroy the two red "arms") when I saw no TLB. Score around 1.4B, give or take I guess.

I've been playing for weeks and i can find a way ti improve my scores, i can only presume that i'm missing something. I have a few questions:
The game doesn't give you any extra point for all the remaining live when you clear the game.
There's a way to destroy every part from the mid bosses, the bosses, the last and the TLB.
I know, those are not questions hehe.

Re: Karous/Karasu
Good work kai your getting there few tips the 2nd boss = milk and make sure you check which weapons need to be brought up some levels and use him for this . 3 midboss can be milked for a good bunch of levels to so yeah really now just get a feel for how long the bosses last and milk as much as you can .

I wonder how it is possible to reach 3 bil. on Hard Mode. Boss milking and speed-killing the ennemy waves are important but is the yellow triangle that changes bullets into points needed?

Re: Karous/Karasu
I never got the triangle on my hard score (clp) It was solely down to after establishing something resembling a strategy for leveling up playing as aggressively as possible... are you milking all the good spots? Level 2 boss , level 3 midboss + boss, level 4 boss (be careful with the timeout.) and the obv parts of level 5?M.Knight wrote:Hard Mode :

Re: Karous/Karasu
Great to see this random triangle bonus isn't required for the 3 bil. points!
I usually milk the stage 2 boss, the stage 3 mid boss and boss (2nd form), but not the other bosses. I am not quick enough on the stage 4 boss' first form so I kinda have to rush it before it leaves, and on stage 5, I tend to quick kill everything to cash in the multiplier.
What specific parts of stage 5 should be milked?

Re: Karous/Karasu
The kinda midboss thing that flys down near the beginning of stage can get a few level ups there for sure.
