Post on an average game that people hate(I actually am having a decent time with it atm but thats probably cause I'm tipsy lol.)
Anyways, I'm sure someone will laugh, my score shot up from about 440,000 at the end of the stage 3 boss to this after a glitch I just discovered:
That's right, 10,841,360 just like that.
I did it on accident so I had to replay the game and save state on the stage 3 boss out of complete disbelief, thankfully I recognized why it happened when it did. It requires a specific weapon, specific spot on the screen to leave on after the boss, at a specific point right before the power up ship flies on screen.
As of so far, to do it you have to have the orange power up at full power then kill the boss in a way so that you can immediately charge your orange shot as the boss begins to blow up completely. You have to kill the boss, charge your shot to FULL(this is important or it won't work), and automatically fly offscreen right up into the spot the power up ship comes in from just a tiny bit before it can fly in. Timing is super strict and I have been able to reproduce this repeatedly, but it is very hard to pull off. More experimentation on this game will follow later this week...even if y'all don't care one bit I'm gonna post other random stuff(if anything) I find here, there's already a couple of ways I found to screw the score though.
...I'm going to kill myself if that's exactly why third_strike has that 11 Million score from before.
EDIT: Posting my high score
ResumeDPosition - 11,607,000 - All - 2P Side
I put 2P side because it is mentionable that there is a slight difference in the two sides, it being the fact that 1P is slower but is slightly stronger while 2P is faster at the cost of some power. The differences are minuscule but one can tell when taking down the very first enemy in the game that the red ship is indeed weaker(and it's easy to tell the speed differences when both ships are playing). I pick the 2P side so that I can use the weaker power to leech the 1st boss missiles for a little longer.
