Judgement Silversword (Rebirth Edition)

[SFKhoa]

Hopefully, you are accepting scores from the unlockable Special Mode. If so, I'd like to submit the following score.

SFKhoa - 46,100,520 - Area 9

[ratikal]

Special Mode? How do you unlock that?

Just clear JSS Normal. Ranking on/off, continues, etc. doesn't matter.

Sorry if I'm being dumb, but where should scores for the 360 port/emulators go then? The Eschatos thread only has Eschatos itself and Cardinal Sins, and this thread was meant for playing actually playing on the WonderSwan, which looks to be another kettle of fish altogether!

Use Oswan. When you start the game, click ->Options->Filter->Any filter since the game won't display properly when filter is not adjusted.

[SFKhoa]

Eschatos' Judgement Silversword port is acceptable here, if that's the answer you're looking for.

[nZero]

Next question: will there be a separate ranking for the hidden ship?

Thanks I'm still playing on Oswan (Flickering Sprites Edition) until I can get my 360 back after STGT, but a quick score meanwhile... does anyone know how the area bonus work exactly by the way? Is it just time or do lives/multiplier factor in as well?

Normal Mode
Aliquantic - 10,914,990 - Area 24

Hard Mode
Aliquantic - 19,132,250 - Area 17

Not unless there's significant demand for it, Sorry.

see above.

Just tried hard mode a few times, so much fun! What an awesome game.

chum - 20,175,170 - Area 19

[Elixir]

Normal
Elixir - 17,412,680 - Area 30

[ebarrett]

normal mode
EBR - 13,514,030 - Area 27

edit: nobody saw that

[ratikal]

Normal Mode
Ratikal - 14,600,160 - Area 26

[ebarrett]

normal mode
EBR - 16,795,040 - Area 30

Mitsurugi Revenge sort of glitched on me when switching to the second form and cost me five lives before I could get rid of it. I'd certainly have defeated Divine Flow if I had carried a few more spare lives there instead of "only" three plus a recently, unexpectedly acquired set of goddamn nerves.


edit: bonus: hard mode:
EBR - 24,862,350 - Area 21

Died after the area had actually ended, for a decent end-of-area bonus and some mumbled cursing.

[Chaos Phoenixma]

Why isn't there an Easy scoreboard? Either way, I'll move onto Normal once I 1cc Easy. I expect lots of dying trying to get the multiplier up.

[ebarrett]

normal mode
EBR - 17,107,780 - Area 29

[Sapz]

Normal
SPZ - 25,046,930 - Area 31

No miss/shield until area 24. Divine Flow went well, all things considered. I have no idea what to do with Divine Expression and lost all remaining lives to its first form. :V

[chum]

I don't see why easy mode shouldn't have a scoreboard, so here's what I have:

chum - 6,099,370 - ALL

It seems you get 500k per life upon clearing, so unless I'm missing something, most of your score should come from that in easy mode. Unfortunately, I died a lot towards the end...

[ratikal]

Would anyone happen to have a .sav file that has all the options unlocked? It's a pain in the ass to have to do it all again on this computer. I forgot to transfer my file over, but even then that was only like option level 20.

[Super Laydock]

Massive changes at the top of the table with all these new scores!

I've actually started playing this again myself as well. Been a long time and it shows in my playing, but I am hoping to get a more decent highscore in before the end of the year at least.

Two things I want to note:

- I have changed the rules of the thread so that now Oswan scores are officially acceptable.
I still have my reservations about this because control (and display) advantages over the game on the Wonderswan Color/Crystal are quite significant. But since it's apparent that a lot of the scores that have been listed have been made on Oswan and have already been listed, I may as well make it clear that they can be used after all.

- If there's enough demand (read: at least 3 score entries) for easy mode I'll add a table.
But if I do so it could mean that all tables will get a max on score entries as to have it all compact enough.
But we'll see how goes.

If you didn't know, the game also comes with Eschatos for Xbox 360 (released at the beginning of this year).. a lot of the recent scores are probably from that.

[Estebang]

Should we accept Eschatos scores with the sprite limit disabled? Eliminating flicker gives one a considerable advantage.

[Sapz]

Easy
SPZ - 8,164,510 - ALL

Let's try Hard mode.

EDIT: Alright, got a good score. Not sure if I'll improve it just now or continue with something else.

Hard
SPZ - 36,679,670 - Area 25

Made it a little further and made it to 26 before dying.

EDIT 2:

Normal
SPZ - 28,157,670 - Area 31

Made it a little further into 31. I think I can clear this with some practice.

Even more reason to also have Oswan accepted.
I trust that the eschatos jss port is exactly the same game with same defaults?

Should we accept Eschatos scores with the sprite limit disabled? Eliminating flicker gives one a considerable advantage.

No. Please see the first rule in the thread. Everything has to be default!

I disagree with this assessment - flicker off is considered a valid display option for scores by the game, as evidenced by the game turning the score ranking off if you mess with any of non-default settings such as extra starting lives. If you're still unwilling to accept scores without flicker, you should remove my current scores since they were done with that display setting.

EDIT: Actually, why not just ask for version used in score submissions?

[Sapz]

Normal
SPZ - 36,468,820 - ALL - Sprite Limit OFF

Sweet victory. I got this run recorded, so it should be uploaded soon. I finished on my last life after reaching area 30 with around 10 spare lives.

EDIT: Ignore the previous score, I got something much nicer.

Normal
SPZ - 57,260,600 - ALL - Sprite Limit Off

No miss until Area 26, killed JSS with a massive multiplier for a ton of points and finished with five reserve lives on top of that for an extra 10m. I recorded this too, so it's going up on YouTube soon. That's probably my final run for this mode for the time being. Here it is.

[Chaos Phoenixma]

Go beat Khoa to that Special Mode 1cc. You could definitely do it.

I'd post my Easy score, but I'm not satisfied with it yet. Same with my Normal score.
