I can't be a complete tool and play video games too Also, I'm probably not beating a score until we play World Games.

If it hadn't been the very first week, maybe I would've put a few more hours in on the final day, but a win's a win.

In all fairness, I've only played it on the Game Boy. Not sure how the Famicom version compares, but regardless, I'm not very good at it And really, it's more shooter than anything, so I'm sure you'll do better than I will Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This looks pretty good. Also, 10 pages? Apparently, I have fourish to sift through while also working diligently tomorrow? Is it all crazy tapeworm shit? Im game either way.

If you can beat the Area 6 boss (pyramid), the second go through (Areas 7-12) is actually easier because you have a mostly full complement of weapons at all times so it's more about item management and keeping your E-meter up. And in case anyone here didn't know, all items are shields, not just the "sheeld." If you have any sub-weapon equipped, your E-meter takes damage instead of your ship exploding when you get hit. The secret to this game is two-fold: one, after Area 1, make sure you're always equipped, and two, manage your sub-weapons and E-meter effectively...

nesmaster14 | 433 Posted May 2, 2021 Share Posted May 2, 2021 (edited) **EDIT** - Doh. Just noticed I think I misread the rules about the final boss. So if I'm correct, the final boss is stage 6? I think I mistook it for Stage 12. I got to this boss but wasn't sure how to defeat it and think I got like 10k while shooting at it but didn't beat it anyway. I'll see if I can try again and make sure to use only missiles. ***Disregard/misread ***Finally got a chance to play a bit. Not sure if I have time for another, but always forget how fun/strategic this little shmup is. 134,320 Edited May 2, 2021 by nesmaster14 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Morbis | 2,088 Posted May 2, 2021 Share Posted May 2, 2021 Okay, this score doesn't count for this week's competition of course, but I finally beat the game and just kept on playing till the end of my last ship. Finally succumbed on the second loop in Area 11 with a score of 449,280 and paused just as my ship had finished exploding. Of course, the first digit was jumping around like crazy again, so I've included two pics, both of them are for you, @Gloves 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaia Gensouki | 1,067 Posted May 2, 2021 Share Posted May 2, 2021 Here's my current attempt: 44,910 Also, if you've beaten this game, you could crosspost this to the NES competition thread, where Alpha Mission is still unbeaten. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
