How on earth do you manage that?

Some targets, when bombed, will kill you if you touch their multiplier text.

Excess 1up items cannot be picked up, and can deny you items that can save your life.

You have got to be kidding. That explains a few unexplainable deaths.

I got my hard drive from New Egg on Friday and spent a few hours today working on this game. There are some parts of this game that are simply sadistic - especially when the game taunts you with 1up's you can't get. :(

RyanDG - Drink & Fly - 13,239,310 - 2-4 - (Mame)

This is probably going to be my only score for this week. I'll try to get in an hour or two tomorrow though.

I'm not kidding. 7 games ended this way.

Sometimes they kill you if you shoot instead of bomb, too.

Maybe tomorrow will be better?

Eh, I couldnt find the dang Rom for this one. Not this "special" one anyway.

The sites I use for this (ok, "site", singular) doesnt have it.

*sigh*

My part in this whole thing doesnt seem to be going so well......

*edit*

Never mind, found it right after saying that.

And I've played this before too..... the arcade I go to has this one (in addition to a buncha others)

No, these are full on "annoying-as-fuck" issues.

ED-057 - Oldschoolers - 10,491,920 - 2-4 - (MAME)

can't believe I suicided on the 2-4 boss when I didn't have any 1ups in stock lol

-Bridget- · Post by **-Bridget-** » Sun Oct 07, 2007 6:01 am

Bridget - Team Loser - 1,713,460 - 1-3

Actually I was finding this to be fairly fun, but I think it requires a bit too much memorization for my tolerance (as scoring goes).

So, that's the only score Im gonna do for this one. Dont have the patience for the memorizing, not gonna bother.

I've experienced that too. What the hell was they thinking?

UPL, give me my weekend back!

I wanted to get to 2-1 but I've been out and about a lot, and when I do have the time to play... well, blame the new Zelda game. Sorry.

I feel your pain. Last night I was having a perfect run too, then accidently ran into a wide shot icon on the 2-5 Boss, removing all firepower for 2-6. This narked me so much that I couldn't bring myself to play again.

Getting killed by multiplier icons explains a few things too

.
I even ran into a glitch on stage 1 where the use of a smart bomb suddenly ended the stage and threw me straight into stage 2

.

I still like this game, but I do agree on the glitch complaints.

zinger · Post by **zinger** » Sun Oct 07, 2007 9:38 am

Has anyone else run into the big question mark on stage 3? Froze the game and sent me back to stage 1, score intact. Exploit!

Dunno why I continued to play this shitness a little more.

Maybe its because I really really want to beat Macaws score!!!

I'm definitely not confident it's going too though.....Especially since I still havn't experienced any second loop action yet

Sword - IWST - 7.349.320 - 1-6 - MAME

1-6 is too hard for me.

I ran into this one as well. It seemed to trigger when I red bombed right before a string of fighters was about to run into the bomb.

Same here.

Lucky playthrough with a lot of stupid deaths. :\

Keade · Post by **Keade** » Sun Oct 07, 2007 3:33 pm

(No INP because I had recording problems).

Can't go past 1-6 either (and of course, I hate this stupid suicide system).

Ok, what in the hell starts at the end of stage 7? I should loop this game just to have a pleasure of not dying on this idiocy.

Post by **Shatterhand** » Sun Oct 07, 2007 4:07 pm

one more cool thing to do on the game:

5 - Clear all levels with a score of zero

yeah, it's possible, try it!

Leeram · Post by **Leeram** » Sun Oct 07, 2007 6:30 pm

Leeram - Underdogs - 6,030,700 - Level 6

I might try to beat this later tonight but I don't think I've done too badly considering I had laser eye surgery last week AND I bought HALO 3!
