Probably my favourite freeware pc shmup ever. It has a fantastic soundtrack and it gets very manic in later stages. Please check out this masterpiece of art!

750,350 - BA2 - 1-7

Not at all impossible, all shmups are meant to be beaten and even I have played harder games. Take Ultimate Stage for PC as an example.

Plasmo · Post by **Plasmo** » Sun Apr 17, 2005 10:29 pm

imo this game is very difficult and the shots of the bigger enemies are too fast for me and i always have to bomb

its a great challenge!!
What do you mean with "BA2"?

Anarchos · Post by **Anarchos** » Mon Apr 18, 2005 4:07 pm

I don't mean anything, it's my arcade nick. I think we all should use it in the scoreboards so that we can get a arcadelike feeling to it.

Plasmo · Post by **Plasmo** » Tue Apr 19, 2005 12:37 pm

New score!!
877,910 - 2549 - 1-7
I got up to the boss in 1-7 with no bombs and no ships left.This thing is impossible without bombs.......at least for me........

Plasmo · Post by **Plasmo** » Tue Apr 19, 2005 4:10 pm

I LOVE THIS GAME!!!!!!
1,065,330 - 2393 - 1-8
It wasnt 100% fair...I got to the 8th boss and was very nervous so i used all my bombs and i was VERY close of killing him (btw her)

Plasmo · Post by **Plasmo** » Wed Apr 20, 2005 7:35 pm

Slightly improved:
1,110,920 - 2897 - 1-8
Again i died on the boss....
Come on and post some scores plz.This game isnt THAT bad and i need other players to get some new motivation.Dont be shy to submit some stage 2 or 3 scores - everyone is welcome

Anarchos · Post by **Anarchos** » Thu Apr 21, 2005 4:15 pm

BA2 (Anarchos) -1,014,580 - ???? - 1-8

Dude, you're better than me! Have you tried Minami Shoots? I have the trialversion, as they say, but to me it seems it is the full game.

Plasmo · Post by **Plasmo** » Thu Apr 21, 2005 7:44 pm

Minami shoots? never heard of it.where can i dl this trial version?link plz.

Plasmo · Post by **Plasmo** » Sat May 21, 2005 6:16 pm

YES!
reached stage 9 for the first time and finally figured out how to get the extra life in stage 1 (thanks aventus!!!).Now its pointless to go on because this boss is just impossible.

Cowboy-NOA - 1,389,350 - 4,127 - 2-2

I did no bomb no miss the 1-5 AND 1-7 (OMFG) boss.The very frustrating part in this run was that i missed 2 (&§/%&§) extra life icons.LOL!I would have easily reached 2-3 with 2 more lives

AVE - 1,153,180 - 2,889 1-8

Very nice game indeed. The music is one of the most wonderful I've ever heard in a shooting game.

ave · Post by **ave** » Wed Oct 11, 2006 8:55 pm

Just reached Stage 9 (died at the 3rd attack of the boss, the bullet pattern where you just have to stand still in the middle of the pattern).
This game is absolutely maniac. I can recommend it to everyone playing danmaku shooters and I REALLY don't understand, why nobody's playing it

Plasmo · Post by **Plasmo** » Sun Nov 19, 2006 8:28 pm

Cowboy-NOA - 2,003,740 - 5,105 - 2-5

beat this score and win a prize!

Post by **Ghegs** » Tue Dec 05, 2006 7:23 pm

Hard, but fun indeed.

Ghegs - 476,810 - 302 - 1-5

Where's the extra life on the first stage? I only know of the one in Stage 3...

Plasmo · Post by **Plasmo** » Tue Dec 05, 2006 8:06 pm

after the first group of blue enemies is destroyed be quick and fly to the very top of the screen.5 blocks should appear and the life is in the middle one.
btw ive reached the true last boss once but im still not sure what the conditions are to reach him.its either dependant on your score, your scratching or your remaining lives.

AVE - 1,195,920 - 3,462 - 1-9

Its about 6 months old but why not ^^

Cowboy-NOA - 2,110,280 - 4,601 - 2-6

Played this again after years and it's still awesome.
This was my first time in 2-6 and the first enemy instantly killed me eventhough I usually know from the replay that he comes from behind.
Scratch was lower because I didn't want to trigger the egg TLB. He costs me a lot of bombs/lives and doesn't give me enough points to justify a fight.

Somebody please play this game.

I think I'll translate this scoring system so I can figure out how to optimally score in this game. I mean, one moment, I beat the second boss and managed to end the game with about 400,000pts. but another playthrough, I beat the second boss but with 200,000pts. in the end.

There must be something going on.

EDIT: Wrong game.

Plasmo · Post by **Plasmo** » Sat Aug 02, 2008 7:23 pm

Scoring is pretty simple. Just shoot everything and scratch bullets. Furthermore don't die or use bombs for a bigger end of stage bonus.
Nevertheless it would be quite cool if you can translate some stuff. I'm especially interested how you unlock the second true last boss that comes AFTER the egg TLB.
I think I'm going to write a strategy guide for this game right now.

Aru-san · Post by **Aru-san** » Sat Aug 02, 2008 7:50 pm

Plasmo, forget everything I submitted. Take the score off the list. I played the wrong game.

Aru-san · Post by **Aru-san** » Sat Aug 02, 2008 9:55 pm

Playing the wrong game. Man, I'm stupid.

Plasmo · Post by **Plasmo** » Sat Aug 02, 2008 9:58 pm

Well, yes it does!
What happened? That must've been some extreme milking somewhere?
Maybe at the fifth boss after destroying all its parts milking the extra enemies? So there's probably a sweet spot or something?
Do you have a replay?

elfhentaifan · Post by **elfhentaifan** » Sat Aug 02, 2008 9:58 pm

someone's cracked the score-system here

Thats a great score for not even having reached stage 5
