Ikaruga - Normal - Ideal (Level 1 One) S Rank 3044900

A decent run through the first level of the excellently crafted game Ikaruga.

This game is a unique shooter. Instead of getting killed by any bullet that flies your way, you can switch polarities to black or white and absorb the color that your ship currently is. This allows for an insane amount of bullets on the screen at one time.

Another cool feature about this game is it's scoring system. For every three enemies of the same color you kill, your chain goes up one. You don't have to keep killing the same color, just three of a certain color at a time. This isn't necessary at all for beating the game, but it IS necessary for getting high scores, because for each chain you get, your score for getting the chain doubles.

It maxes out at 8 chains, and with each chain thereafter, you get the max amount of points for each chain.

Now that you understand what's going on, watch and see how well set up this game is.

(This isn't my best, but I just wanna put a vid up)

finally someone skilled without S++ Jedi power, how many hours of practice in this level did you take to get this rank?

[CyrusShadowBlade]

I was really addicted to the Gamecube version. I'm not quite sure how many hours I've put into it though...

I'll post a new video of this level soon. I'm able to get an S+ now.
