This game is all about getting in the zone, and staying there. Your performance and scoring potential start going downhill at your first death, and after that it's all about endurance because the game stops giving extends after one million points (the last one is at 960k) and there are only like 5 or 6 black POW extend pickups in the game. On default settings this means you can max out at around 20 lives, but there are 32 stages so you have to average less than one death per stage overall!Plasmo wrote:Excellent replay as usual!
1942 looks like one of the hardest shmups ever.
If you accept the continue offer it starts back on the first stage with 0 points, so it's basically starting a new game.emphatic wrote:Congrats! Very nicely done. LOL at the continue screen after the final stage. What would happen if you'd chosen yes?Also, what happens if you clear a stage without killing anything? Do you get 0 pts bonus or a secret one?
If shoot nothing on the stage (harder than it sounds!) then you get no bonus.
