DoDonPachi Dai-Ou-Jou Black Label - 441m

Finally getting to grips with chaining, here's an early result, hopefully to be improved on!

1-1 chain was nice, but nothing special.
1-2 chain break was annoying, but recovered pretty well. 1-2 boss was... embarassing. :V I have no idea how that happened.
1-3 went well enough, I guess.
1-4 didn't go very well because I have no idea whatsoever how to chain this stage. Both deaths were unexpected.
1-5 was without a doubt the highlight of the run, that chain was absolutely beautiful despite not getting carried through the last quarter or so. Actually pulling off the beehive section chain was completely unexpected and awesome.

The second loop on the whole went surprisingly well in terms of both survival and chaining. 2-3 boss death was pretty damn irritating, but I was too pleased with the run at that point to care much.

So... pretty happy with this run. Next target is 500m!

Which version of MAME are you using? The 1-1 boss sound is wrong. :P (Fixed in 141)

[Sapzdude]

@hatchedarea I used Shmupmame 2.2 for this run.

Thanks for all the positive feedback, people! :D

Remember when you played this game? Good times.

:(

clearly on 1-2 you died to taunt the boss. you were like, "I didn't even like those lives, you can have them."

sick shooting dude.

[moozooh]

Just so you know, whatever dodging you were pulling off on 2-2 was completely and utterly shameless.

[OmegaWeaponX25]

Impressive that you were able to get that far despite dying twice on Stage 2. I would personally need all the lives i can get for Stage 4 and 5. Very nicely done.

Oh right, boss chains don't cancel when you die. Stupid me.

[OyVeey]

Stage 4 boss death was painful to watch. You had such a huge chain going there...

[Outshinedsg]

Awesome run. At first I thought it would end really early. You blew up at the stage 2 boss and I was like "Don't tilt! Don't tilt!" But you recovered your focus very nicely. I was amazed at how much you got done with your last two lives. Stage 5 chain was awesome, of course =D. Chaining looks really unforgiving in this game... just a fraction of a second and it's gone =/

thanks for the vid, it's great when 1-5 comes together and you had some great dodging on 2-2. few things to work on so i'm sure you'll do even better in the future. it appears there's slightly more slowdown on the emulated version during the busier spots of 1-5, although loop 2 speed looks accurate. well done on your score
