Hey the boss part was helpful, the safe spot really relieves some tension in my endeavor to do a 1CC of the first loop...anything that makes things much easier like that are really helpful after stage 4.

Great job on the chaining. I usually have to break my chains with bombs, and the only time I've gone over 330 is one time when I ran out of bombs and got lucky with the dodging.

The Stage 5 boss... sometimes I blow all my bombs on it, sometimes I get lucky during the bombing pattern and make it through unscathed. I *think* it's all about anticipating what's ahead, but I haven't been able to clear it consistently enough to be sure.

I allways die at this stage,I come to this stage at 0 lives and 0 bombs and then bam i'm dead

You said : "The combo criteria for the C type ship is 330..."

What are the combo criterias for the other ships?

[Smraedis]

For some reason, A is 270 and B is 300

[QlexTENDER]

Oh well, ok.

But is it possible to do a full chain combo? I think I did so when I was young, but... you know, I was young.

[Smraedis]

It's possible to get from the start to around the 2:30 with just one combo, but I'm not sure if it is possible to do any better than that.

Oh, by the way, i dont know if theres a way to change difficulty mode in the game...because i see something like "rank:normal" on the main screen but i dont know if there's a way to switch the game easier or harder. If you know how, or if theres only one mode, please tell me :)

[Smraedis]

Hold F2 for a while, then Configuration.. the game is most balanced on Normal though.

[ResumeDPosition]

What changes on the different difficulties? I always play on normal, but I'm guessing that the only difference is that there are more bullets?

[Lishy1]

Pretty much, from my experience

[mmm07]

When i tried this on Normal, i definately struggled. THen i went to Very Hard, it felt the same. Also, Easy kinda felt nearly same too. But so i just stick to Very Hard since i didnt feel much of a difference. I dont know its just me.

Hi! I suppose you played it on the MAMe, i want to know which program do you used to record the screen, because the one that i use (camtasia) makes the screen goes like "jumping" from time to time, and it is quite hard to dodge the hundreds of bullets when suddenly it jumps like a milisecond but it is time enough to miss a bullet and get killed.

And by the way...dodonpach rulez! :)

[Smraedis]

I use a similar program to Camtasia actually, but I record the game input when playing the game.

Then I playback the input and use the program to record when its playing back, so there won't be any frame drops when actually playing.

Thanks for uploading these DDP videos, they are fun to watch someone dodging literally hundreds of bullets at once.
