Nice one. It was pretty tight but I've just managed to squeeze you on to the bottom of the leader board.

Wanting to see a 100M+ score soon. :awe:

I've got the fourth level down now and find it easier than most of the other fourth levels in Cave games. Playing just to survive I can get 1/3 way through the 5th level most times... After that it all goes ****.

Playing for score though I seldom finish the third level. :(

You're doing well though, shouldn't be too long before you get in to the groove and the scores will sky rocket. I think I can get around 12 Mil from the first level alone.

Atm I'm trying to break 100 Million, then I'll go for the 1-CC. I really don't like the fifth level though, Not only is it rock hard, it's mundane and the music is crap. :(

you need to kill all his turrets. it's easy to miss the bit at the back of him that's only on screen for a short period. make sure to blow that **** up too :D

word! as soon as i get that life i will be on my way to the 2nd extend :awe:
i did get to level 4 with 2 lives showing(so 3 left overall) but i killed off the first life straight away flying into the first enemy ship on screen and the 2nd one not long after without using any of it's bombs :x
personally i think 1-5 is about as far as i will get in this game! HARD

yuo were right jpj. i was missing the turrets at the back. using your shot seems to bust em up quick tho and i managed to trigger the 1up 3 times.. now to do it in a better run! trying to work out a no bomb/miss for the 3rd level boss is really killing my lives !

you're really rinsin' this one :awe: there's a trick to the 3rd boss when he does the pattern with blue and pink large circular bullets. it looks well tough because they're moving left/right in their trajectory. but if you imagine you're playing psyvariar and grazing the blue bullets, the pink will never hit you. make sure they're as close to you as possible, but without killing you, then move left/right with them :awe:

i find this game real tough :?
