Gundemonium Collection on Steam

[Chaos Phoenixma]

I knew about the Standard leaderboards being screwed up on GundeadliGne, but it's happening to me on Demonic now too.

Best score is a 2.2 billion now(still game overing in stage 4), yet my score on the leaderboard is the one where I only barely got above 2 billion.

Yeah, I really wish I knew what was happening there. The code for leaderboards in GundeadliGne isn't any different from the code in the others (in fact it's literally the same file and the only difference is how many scores are set to download at once), so I've been kinda baffled about that issue for a while.

"Best score is a 2.2 billion now(still game overing in stage 4), yet my score on the leaderboard is the one where I only barely got above 2 billion."

Could it be a 32-bit signed integer overflow?
With 32-bit signed, the range of values is -2,147,483,648 to 2,147,483,647.

On the online boards:
The high score on Standard right now is 2,136,656,670.
the high score on Demonic right now is 2,075,031,350.

Both are less than 2,147,483,647. If you go over that, then the final bit (the sign bit) goes high. This may cause it to be interpreted as a negative integer on the server side. If that's the case, then that is why the score is not being accepted - because it's a negative number that is less than all of the scores on the board.

The reason it doesn't happen in the other games is because their scores don't approach such high values, so there's no possibility of overflow.

You can solve it by sending the score as a 64-bit integer.
You could also change it to an unsigned 32-bit integer, but that may not be the best solution because Chaos just got 4 billion points in his Demonic run, and if he gets more improvements then he may overflow an unsigned 32-bit integer as well, which would then start counting the score of from 0 again.

stuff

Thanks and all, but unfortunately you're on the wrong track. This issue happens with GundeadliGne scores fairly often regardless of the actual scores involved. It's also only GundeadliGne; The rest handle all of that stuff the same way, but can reach scores above that level without problems.

How exactly does the scoring in Hitogata Happa work anyway? Though I know there might be some differences between maingame and solo voyage. And obviously Destiny 13 since you would almost never want to suicide on that mode.


I tried 1ccing maingame Euridice and I did not know that you could only make 112 dolls for the entire game. I thought it was that you could have up to 112 at a time. So now I'm clueless about which dolls to go for.

Also tried continuing on Destiny 13, but I guess you can't cause it took me to the maingame on Euridice instead. but I had gotten enough gems that I could spawn the TLB despite continuing. I got destroyed by it as I had no idea how to actually go about fighting it.

I've only gotten up to Mission 3 on Destiny 13 Nobilmente. The bosses and stages are just extemely brutal. And I have no idea about proper strategy for that mode.And it's kind of annoying that we can't download replays from the leaderboards cause I would have liked to watch that Destiny 13 Doomsday All that is on it.

Just a quick note (hopefully in a non-obnoxious way!) - I'm a shmup fan and am involved in organizing the Indie Royale game bundle that Gundemonium Collection was featured in, and our latest Indie Royale has three Rockin Android titles, including two shmups: Flying Red Barrel and Qlione: http://www.indieroyale.com/ - it's on for the next two days or so!
