『レイクライシス』 (RayCrisis) - Special Mode Playthrough Part 3 (PC Version)

"Select your Wave Rider..."

RefRain is using "Divers", heh.

Third and last part, also what has to be my longest video so far. Facing three bosses here: a powerful verison of Pro-Tor, Dis-Human and Infinity, the typical Taito surreal TLB. Taito tends to be synonym of surrealism and weirdness.

This is where I start making a bunch of mistakes and lost valuable enemy formations. Heck, I couldn't even open the four missile racks or summon the big mid-boss. But it's also where I managed to get the pesky green 2X item, which turned a horrible run into a 76+ million one. Still not too good, I can't seem to beat my 87 million mark although I know it's more than possible.

Also, I'm mentioning how awesome the new Dis-Human theme is. I know it might feel quite anticlimatic with all the tender piano and orchestral overtones but it's a nice change from the mind-numbing techno punchi-punchi pum pum numbers you have to hear nowadays.

About Infinity, I know you can squeeze like 750k points by bombing those rings at first and then another 750k by bombing them towards the end but... damn, couldn't pull it off at all. I'm already glad I could record this whole thing without my computer lagging, getting the 2x and a partially decent score!

RayCrisis is definitely an underrated game. There is much more behind what seemed to be a super short and super simple shooter. Definitely worth spending some hours on it... I spent like 24 since I put my claws on this version.

I first played this when I was 9....

Now, as a fanatic of the Touhou series, I find this much easier then when I played it first....

@valnavat2nd Right, forgot about that.

My problem with Infinity when using a Wave Rider is that he throws your Round Divider back at you. Sure you score for destroying everything else, but doing it against him is usually a death wish.

@Rondart

You have no continues in SP Mode. You run out of lives, game over.

Thank god for acquirable lives and anti-encroachment pills.

I completely forgot that Dis-Human in the Sp Mode has a different theme than "Formless Living Bodies" like in the Original Mode. Good job getting thru without continues. You, sir, are shmup expert.

Also, ZUN used to work for Taito? That fills a lot of blanks indeed.
