STGT'10 Week 2: Xexex

[Shuurin]

Got an insane 3 extends this run, but man did I ever screw up in every which way. Really boosted my score with those extends. Stage 3 is no longer a threat, kinda worried about stage 4 atm.

Argh. Could easily pop in another credit and make 800k, but I have family visiting and can't hog the PC all morning. I don't see 1mil being a problem at all... this game's first loop is a damn sight easier than those of Gradius III or R-Type II.

Also,

23. lgb INFINITE FLAMINGOES 715,350 1-1

This score is impossible. The most you can squeeze out of 1-1 with one life is 120,000; even considering extends it couldn't be pushed that high. Is the stage number wrong?

I didnt have much time to practice. 3rd stage is a bitch! plus this game doesnt save scores like Cyvern did

I hate being shot from off-screen. I hate it!

He ran into a bug in the game where the top of that last "brain wall" became invulnerable and he could just keep shooting at it for a lot of points (although he didn't even know he was getting a lot of points from it, he just kept trying to destroy it and then looked at score after and realized).

We're not sure how it happens, it's only happened once to him. I couldn't reproduce it.

No extends at all in the last 50 or so tries, those would really come in handy...

I am going to stream some play of this crapshit tonight and explain a bit about it, if anyone present is interested in it. I'll start after dinner, which is 22:00 around my time, timezone is GMT+1 (Germany).
Expect to not hear the game music but a lot of swearing.

man, talk about fun. we had a mini nanio shooting team meet all day and most of the night yesterday. it was fun sharing strategy tips and watching teammates post awesome scores. there's something to be said about bashing your head against the wall alone vs. bashing your head against the wall with your friends and getting some tasty food. i love wearing rabbit ears while late at night walking for a little ice cream run. i love it. you guys should all listen to michael mcdonald and kenny loggins, very awesome shmup music.



I leave you all with lyrics from the two princes of yacht rock, Kenny Loggins and Michael McDonald.

"This Is It"
Stand up and fight
This is it
Make no mistake where you are
This is it
Your backs to the corner
This is it
Dont be a fool anymore
This is it
The waiting is over
No room to run
No way to hide

This game... I swear... It's the bastard child of Gradius and R-type... only born slightly retarded. Only way I can describe this game.

This game is hard as heck later on O.o

[rcantor77]

A lucky run through level 3 and level 4 for some reason was very easy. The boss on the other hand - a real pig.
Not sure I am going to get any more than this. Or ever beat the tentacles...

Didn't have time to play earlier. This is one of my first credits, just so Sweet Tacos gets a (crappy) score.

I guess I have to give up for this week. I tried to reach level 5, but it's not possible for me today. Good luck everyone!

[Teku]

Not that it really matters but I got mixed up posting my score, got to 1-6, not 1-5.

[dex]

A few more credits.
