Finally got this game a couple days ago. Silly first 1cc where I didn't even learn anything in stage 5, oh well. Time to learn stuff.

If I had known that after your ship transforms. S/L doesn't drain as much, I probably wouldve been able to beat Hibachi. Oh well.

Went to Gamecenter in San Mateo today. I guess it's a high score.

All updated. I'm hoping once I get done moving and settled in that I'll be able to start playing again. Shit's been hectic for me.

Keep up the good work, all.

Can provide a screenshot in a weeks time when i go to my friends place who has the capture device if necessary :V Crappy score sure, didn't use any score tricks whatsoever, no restarts, crappy chaining, nothing. But hey, a clear is a clear. I am happy.

Holy shit that was a good run of stage 5.

Shame it came hot on the heels of a FUCKING DISASTROUS STAGE 4 or I would have cleared the game.

First arcade clear, albeit with babby ship :3 No-missed to stage 4 boss and everything went downhill pretty fast from there. Stage 5 was an unmitigated disaster. Barely got the clear by rage-bombing on my last life.

Replay on the leaderboards.

wow.

I have been playing expert (sorry, expart) a lot lately, but I can't even make it past the second stage.

Just how much of difference does using Saya makes?

[Erppo]

Just how much of difference does using Saya makes?

A lot. The ridiculous power and slowdown makes D-EX barely harder than the normal modes. There's no point in comparing her to the other EX ships.

I see. I've had her unlocked for a while but I've never tried her.

You think you'll try clearing with one of the standard ships too?

Maybe some day, but I don't have any immediate plans of it.

I think it's a very good mode I think. The patterns are very fun to dodge.

I've managed to get to stage 3 just now. It's not as hard as I thought with the correct strategy. I've also made an higher score but I died at the end of stage 2.

Many difficult patterns can be avoid by hoarding hypers during the easy section. Of course even the easy sections can be very dangerous.

Finally got a decent breakthrough after being stuck in the 3-4B range for a while:

japtor - 5,992,335,728 - Stage 4 - Type C - Autobomb ON

I was already at 5.99B going into the boss fight and just hoping to break 6B, but no. Lost my bombs in an autobomb early cause I wasn't paying close enough attention then just blew it on one of the next patterns. On the plus side I think I have the stage 3 boss semi down now finally.

I'm not sure if this counts as an "earth-shattering" improvement but I'm double posting anyway! Also apparently you can't do this in score attack:

[CptRansom]

Goddammit now I have to figure out if I'm going to separate "bugged" scores or not! THANKS ERPPO (and congrats)!

Also, updated.

The manual calls Type D type Z. I think Type Z is a much better term for the ship as demonstrated.

hahaa wow that's impressive.

how the hell can you make to stage 5 already, I've been practicing all week but still can't make it to stage 3 consistently.
I did manage to kill the mid boss a couple of times though, at least.
