one more example from last year
(back then i had vencord so i could see other people's edited/deleted posts)

dude you do this with shmups too, literally pick a struggle

destroy the side lasers of the stage 4 boss, wait for tanks to come out, then bomb, you'll get roughly 1.4 million points for each bomb you use

Collectors need an intervention

bullet hell masterpiece espgaluda 2

tomodachi life players on the switch who want their miis to propose successfully: I recommend playing this game in order to train for it

yes...............

the worst part: the last 1up is in the last stage. i have no way of tracking coins, so, i could pull off the best run ever and still not have enough coins at the very end. that is gonna drive me crazy

in order to pull this off i need to collect 200 coins; when you collect the 50th coin, the next enemy who drops coins will drop a 1up instead; so far i've had consistency on where my three routed 1ups appear, but introducing a 4th one throws things way off

i'm literally 40k points away from beating the highest known Blast Wind score

if i beat it with my current margin, it'll create a 60k gap, but the luck required to pull this off...

i'm saying this because just yesterday i ran into a twitch stream of a guy claiming to be making a shmup, playing mushihimesama and saying those exact words as he was trying out ultra mode

the narrative that arcade games were "designed to eat your quarters" is dumb and needs to end

most people don't know, most export versions of arcade PCBs were tweaked to be much harder than their original counterparts, konami was especially guilty for this, the opposite happened way less often

i understand that, had things gone differently for vsj, it might've been around still, but with a much different roster

but now i'm asking myself, what was the point for kairyu debuting if she doesn't stream at all? was it gonna be the same if vsj kept going?

the perfect run happened

this woman would explode like a victorian child if exposed to any modern bullet hell

why does this blog have 268 shmup reviews and nearly all of them are on euroshmups with zero mention of anything even vaguely related to the bullet hell subgenre

another element of scoring that needs exploring is stage 4 boss where you can milk missiles

the perfect run involves getting 6 bombs in stage 1, getting the first coin 1up in stage 3, then two more in stage 4, and playing flawlessly up to the last boss

sometimes a prolonged boss fight might randomly spawn a power up or a bomb, there is no criteria on how, or which you get

this game has several RNG elements, some enemies might not always spawn, some power up carriers might or might not carry bombs, the "slot machine" buttons could spawn coins and throw off your 1up routing, and sometimes the 1up's spawn so low on the screen you get no time to pick em up

Blast Wind - 1CC (4,748,380) YouTube video by Van Artic

no miss cleared Blast Wind (4,861,120), didn't record it and i accidentally reset the emulator during the ending, the score did save in the rankings, but with no initials

i recorded a lower score for posterity

japan flipping their shit to nier reincarnation's private servers is a telling story of how normalized and accepted EoS is

literally saying fuck preserving games, everything should be ethereal and locked away in memories

companies are not your friends, wake the fuck up

only if they bring the girls back (unlikely to have the same VAs)

so i played the spotter, dig or die, cause i saw laimu playing it
it reminded me about a game about digging a hole, bigger disappointment than that game cause you can savescum the slot machine and literally skip the entire grind

cave has been a multi layered company for years, they pretty much tried everything they could think of, jewelry, youtube influencing, fashion, NTFs, you name it

months ago they had already voiced their will to go back to actual videogames instead of rolling their thumbs with gacha money
