This game is great. Now I'm sorry I didn't find a place for it in my top 25!

Reduced the timeout to two days (48 hours) since some people seem to overestimate the sight-reading skills of fellow forum members

Holy shit this game's boss explosions... I'm afraid to even play it. Red and blue full screen flashing on alternate frames, while you have to focus to dodge a few more bullets.

Good thread. I can't compete but I've been amusing myself by trying out some of the lesser known games that have been in here.

Omega Fighter! Kill stuff at close range for mad score, see what happens when you power up the thin beam too much, gaze in wonderment at the game over screen, just play it already it's great.

Completed the challenge somehow. This game has an amazing amount of cheapshots.
New game: OutZone! (I used the "set 2" ROM)
Optional challenge: Destroy all of them.

holy expletive those expletive snakes
Touhou 12: Undefined Fantastic Object. This is Boss Rush mode, which can be found here:
http://www.shrinemaiden.org/forum/index ... 341.0.html
Rather than score, survive on Lunatic. I really have no sense of what is considered "good" in Touhou on shmups farm so just get past Kogasa (2nd boss) or something.
Definitely not any self-promotion going on over here.
