Player side is important because there is a unique ship for each side. For the scores taken from the old high score board I just guessed they used the P1 side.

P2 side is awesome. Not as strong, but faster. And homing missiles!

This is one of my favorite shooters!!! Too bad it seriously suffers in 2player games because of slow down (atleast in Mame).

I'm about to play then I'll let you know my score :)

Wow, suddenly people are interested...Macaw has the magic touch (or beak, as it seems). Good call on the P1/P2 difference. I'll have to give this another go soon.

I'd ask for my old score in, but I don't know the stage, 90%+ chance it's just 2, though!

Yes, the EAH one.

I'm starting to work on this a bit again, though, because that score is not that great.

There are at least 2 on stage one (although the second one, right before the boss, isn't always triggering for me - it seems that you have to shoot down a special enemy to get it to appear)

Shoot down ALL the planes that drop missiles. It's hard with the 1P ship. Much better with 2P. Also 2P is faster, though the homing missiles aren't super powerful.

Never mind, there is only 2. I confused it with the 1000 point things. And I forgot to read my previous posts <<

Shoot all the bombs dropped by stage 1 boss? Now that's something I didn't know.

I'll have to look into that.
