Minor improvement, but progress has been slow.

Steer clear of this game. Its stupidity (e.g., ramming) is not up to the standards of our scholarly association.
If it comes to my attention that you pursue this game any further, your current membership has to be withdrawn.
In my view, it is not appropriate to associate yourself with such excuse for a game.
I sincerely suggest you to play a Yagawa game instead.
Best regards /D.


I know this is tongue in cheek, but if you truly consider yourself part of the Batriderian Philosophy, upholding the laws of Yagawa, then you'd know counter intuitive scoring, like sucidice and ramming the shit out of things, are to be appreciated. :P

BTW: nice score!

We, the SBP, are a conservative society that frown upon changes, but with the indeed cogent arguments from Dave_K, we'll at least reconsider the legitimacy of this game. As of now, you may keep on playin', Saucykobold. :wink:

This was hard work for me. No miss up to the last stage. Then lost all my lives in stupid ways during the stage. Arrived at the last boss with only two bombs and managed to pull it off. One word: Adrenaline.

This game's scoring makes less sense than Panty & Stocking with Garterbelt.

It does actually get a fair bit easier after you get used to the bullet speed and learn where things are coming from. Maybe I can reach that stage 6 boss by the end of the week :shock:

I haven't even made any progress in my tries since I posted that score, either in survival or in score. I've been trying a lot though.

no clue how to defeat the ship, so I decided to bounce off of it a lot instead

edit:
ED-057 - 724,300 - 4 - Spitfire - MAME

hmph. Made it to the ship stage with no deaths and still failed miserably.

I feel like I'm finally making very minute progress. I really can't do more than short bursts with this game, it seems that after 5 credits or so in one sitting there's no way for me to improve. Hoping to at least do a little better before the end of the week.

Are there a whole lot of easy points in stage 5 or something? Scores seem to jump considerably.

First death was at the last phase of the stage 5 boss, didn't even make it to 6 boss. A shame this is yet another game that's significantly challenging to recover from even one death in.
Dimahoo is a fun game.

Just wanted to beat stage 4. Off for a weekend alchoholiday, so this is my one and only p-47 score. Shame, because it's an amazing game. Not sure I'll be playing it again for a while, but, still, amazing.
