I'll say two weeks initally, maybe I'll extend it if people are still putting in a lot of new scores. EDIT: First score:
The good thing is that I really enjoy these types of games. The bad thing is that I'm not very good, mainly fighting for survival not knowing how to get the best score. So I'll probably place last.
I'm hoping that a fair few of us are going to suck. If I wanted to compare myself to people who were actually good I'd go to some dedicated shmups forums.
Got to the last boss and got asskicked You didn't choose the easiest shmup to start with, i had to play for hours to get this.
hooray! my first score, even tho it's abysmal ps: i'm "pro" for some reason, even tho i tried to enter as "md"
So I can submit something: I did about as well on the J romset before I realized we were playing U, hahaha.
Re: Shmups Challenge - First Round: Progear Sorry for double post, but awesome score! After practicing stage 4, I pulled this off. Need to practice stage 5 and final boss, so I can 1CC this someday. Also, I always try to hard in contests, so don't think my score improvement is fake or save-stated, because I played too much
Re: Shmups Challenge - First Round: Progear i have another suggestion for a game we could challenge tumiki fighters by kenta cho
Re: Shmups Challenge - First Round: Progear New game is Strikers 1945 III I'll probably pick a fan-made one for the next round.
Re: Shmups Challenge - Second Round: Strikers 1945 III Yay, Strikers. I'll definitely play this round.
Re: Shmups Challenge - Second Round: Strikers 1945 III first abysmal attempt with strikers 1945 III: edit: new score 177700
Re: Shmups Challenge - Second Round: Strikers 1945 III First try, with a stick. UPDATE: New score. 181300 -> 224500.
Re: Shmups Challenge - Second Round: Strikers 1945 III lgb - X-36 - 1-4 - 382,300 Asdfasfkkadfkk. Afjasjf. Ah.
Re: Shmups Challenge - Second Round: Strikers 1945 III I suck at this game so much. I can't medal chain or get technical bonuses at all. :s
Re: Shmups Challenge - Second Round: Strikers 1945 III NB: X36 is a secret ship, to enable it, first go to the option menu (F2) /maintenance code then enter 01999. Start a game, select the "?" then press up+enter simultaneously. As the X36 is significantly stronger than others is it reasonable to allow it?
Re: Shmups Challenge - Second Round: Strikers 1945 III I'm very tempted to say no. This thread is largely made with noob players in mind, so I'm inclined against completely random tricks like that. On the other hand, 60% of the scores so far were made with that ship, so I guess I'll allow it.
