Ikaruga - Dot Eater Challenge (Hard) [101,000]

Hey romscout, I present to you this challenge! See if you can best me.

Game: Ikaruga (Gamecube)
Difficulty: Hard
Lives: 5

Goal: Beat Level 1 with a ranking of [Dot Eater] and a score bigger then mine. Try to see if you can do it without dying too, though that's hard.

For those unaware, to get a [Dot Eater] ranking, you have to beat the level without shooting even once. You can flip your polarity to eat the enemy attacks.

(And to the Ikaruga pros, yes I do realize that I suck at this game. I'm not challenging you. I'm challenging romscout.)

Heh, I haven't touched Ikaruga in quite a long while. My attempts will probably be pathetic, but I can at least see obvious spots where you could have improved.

Next time I'm home I'll be doing the Link's Awakening and Kirby Super Star stuff, so I probably won't pull out my Gamecube at all. :P I'll try the challenge but not for a while. Also, does this game run on a DC emulator? If so, hope you don't mind me just recording on that some time.

I haven't used DC emulators, so I couldn't tell you. Since it's the same game, it'll be OK to use that (or even the arcade version, if you can find it and make it work).

Yeah, there's plenty to improve (like getting rid of the 2 deaths).

I just threw this out there. Do it at your own leisure and offer something back if you want.

At least the difficulty in this game isn't fake!
