Score Attack EX3 (Very Hard)
Battletoad - 26,195,722 - Replay

Yay!
Just one bomb on the midboss, the rest of the stage was fine. Just a lot of deaths and bombs on the boss, but I haven´t really bothered to practice him until now.

Quite crappy play, but still a good score. Made a very lucky dodge in the highspeed part of EX3, but died shortly afterwards. After that I made like a dozen tries to perfect the first stage, but stupid deaths all over the place...

EX 3 - Very Hard

Plasmo - 46,760,853 - Replay

One miss, one bomb at the boss. The miss could've been prevented, but I'm tired of playing this stage again. Maybe if someone beats my score. My maximum would be around 47-48mill, I think.

So.

Fucking.
Resets.
I kept just crashing into bullets for hour. Then I just did this run, which is kinda bad. I died two times with full bombstock.

Good run, lost 2 bombs. I also chain-bombed in stage 2, which reduced my score by a ton.

Reached the TLB and made many mistakes in this run. Clearing EX course should be easier than Normal course.

Woah, 1.2 billions? I will try later.

I could have gotten higher score if I had suicided at stage 3 boss. :/

Did it!

Scoring was consistent throughout the whole run and roughly shows my planned routes. There's not much room for improvement without massive milking.

[Sasupoika]

Haha, congradulations! The clear-bonus was 200 millions, right?
Now go clear the normal course.

[Plasmo]

200mill endbonus.

Clearing Normal course on insane is far beyond my skills. EX is so much easier.

"Epic failure" would not be enough to describe this run. It was so bad... If you want to watch the replay, you have been warned.

I wanted to play some more EX score attack and Insane, but I´m a huge sissy.

Thanks Plasmo for finding out how much the proximity bonus is worth. (One hell of a lot.)

Score Attack (Very Hard)

EX2
Battletoad - 15,407,421 - Replay

No missed no bombed the boss, how did I do that?
Unfortunately the rest of the stage needs some perfection. One death and one bomb on the midboss and some luck in the passage after him.

EX3
Battletoad - 40,088,346 - Replay

Hell YEAH! I finally could get past that midboss and barely broke 40 million. Played the boss even worse than usual, but it barely matters. Definitely done here!

EDIT: Sasu´s EX3 score is missing on the board by the way.

I´ve noticed that the EX2 midboss can be speedkilled... or at least sort of. I´ve had it at least two times while using a bomb and I think also once without a bomb. The boss had about a third or a quarter of his health left and just died. In Azinth´s replay the same thing happens. Does anyone exactly know how this is triggered? Firing on the side(s) maybe?

Alright, seems like that was just a timeout, but a surprisingly fast one...

I think I´m close to the point where I´ll get really sick from this game. For now here´s a bunch of new scores.

Finally cleared due to not losing all my lives with full bomb stock!
Even no missed the first 7 stages, fucked up the last stage, but still the clear was not in danger.

I hate that EX1 midboss. Couldn´t get him down without bombs so far. I used one in my best run and one quite late in the stage. I could get 30/35 million at least if I get it all together.

Finally, another doujin game with a 2-ALL.

[tinotormed]

EDIT: Removed due to illegitimacy.

One question for this mode, Insane Mode submissions also accepted? If it does, we may need another table if I should submit a score.

[Plasmo]

All your scores for the EX stages are done in Cancel mode and thus not legit (your normal mode 77mill ALL seems to be ok though). I can't add these scores to the table since the scoring potetnial is significantly higher in Cancel. Go to options, set "game mode" to "normal" and try again. Looking forward to see some legit scores from you!

If you submit some good insane scores, I'll probably open a new table.

Well if that's your case, why don't I submit one for Insane then (on normal, as obvious)?

EDIT: 1st entry for Score Attack - Insane Mode
tinotormed - EX1 - 133,530,289 - Replay

This score is just twice as that of Very Hard as by using bomb, you cancel enemies' projectiles by bombing but still those bullets can easily hit you if you're not careful. I could not stand a chance at those bullets but managed to survive with one life left.

Note: Higher scoring potential at main boss when you bomb.

[tinotormed]

Woohoo, Plasmo, are u there?

[Sasupoika]

If you submit some good insane scores, I'll probably open a new table.

Insane mode
Sasupoika - 1,063,076,079 - EX3

Could have done much better
Had silly deaths and unneeded bombs.

[Plasmo]

Haha sorry guys, I didn't think too much about Insane mode, but it's not a challenge at all. You basically only need to use all your bombs, which makes the game dull and doesn't let you dodge any bullets at all. The scoring is quite broken and way too easy. I won't open a new table for this. Very Hard is probably the best difficulty and a good challenge. Insane is just broken.



If you want to play the EX stages on Insane, there's always the full EX course, which definitely is a good challenge because you can't bomb spam this mode as much.
