I think you need at least 50 to be an honorary Canadian. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

G-type 2,063 Member · Posted August 22 Share Posted August 22 finally made it past that first array of ground turret things. I made it to the boss of area 1 but didn't get a picture in time. I think my score was in 60k something... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gloves 10,941 Administrator · Posted August 22 Share Posted August 22 @BeaIank Can you confirm for me please... Are the scores currently posted valid? When you say "play until you lose your first life" do you mean "play until your heart count goes down by one"? Or do you mean "play until your ship explodes"? If it's the latter then I've put in a lot more effort than I needed to in the "don't take any damage at all" department. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I will consider the scores posted so far valid. I didn't make a participation requirement to get to a certain stage this time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I definitely can’t crack that 68k you’re always talking aboot. So far the best I've gotten is 67.9k so you do have a chance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gloves 10,941 Administrator · Posted August 22 Share Posted August 22 Broke 300k, end of area 3. That boss is a run killer pretty often. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually my 250 is at the beginning of stage 3 lol. strategy wise it’s pretty straightforward as far as I know. I do better when i finesse his ass. Wait for the good pitches. that boss is a pain though I was all confused about what stage and boss you were talking about.

BROTHER! Its thumb fatigue. My old ass digits are good for one run. Edit: The game makes you go from the left most portion to the right most portion over and over again with those skinny headed fish fellas. Its not a challenging aspect really, just wears you out. My only complaint with this one. Great shooter otherwise. Edited August 23 by NESfiend Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you're at the same vertical point as a fish it'll turn in your direction, so just sit on one near the top; the fish in front of you dies instantly, and the other graciously comes over to be killed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was just using that energy ball sub weapon that you can use to shoot sideways so I didn't even have to move. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I made a run last night and got to area 3 boss and said “watch me finesse this punk!” Ya there was no finessing to it. dude power destroyed me in like 10 seconds with a couple strings of electric seaweed. What an asshole. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
