ESP RA.DE. - Last Boss Last Part - Almost No-Miss

This is myself fighting against the last part of the last boss. I almost beat it with no deaths and no bombs, but my nerves got the best of me in the end.

I've been trying to get back into shmup-shape and hopefully make some more progress on those Gradius III videos.

I think one of the hardest aspects of bosses like this is staying calm and focused as you approach your goal. I never intended to no-miss this boss but once I realized what I was about to do, I didn't survive much longer :P.


Played on MAME32 v0.95

Recorded after a state saved before the last boss.

No other emulator assistance was used.

i always try to dodge that pattern like that but i can never get through the pink hands

i just do it the long way and go behind when the pink comes then shoot her when she shoots blue and go in circles lol

Ick, I know what you mean about this boss! I died so many times... Uhm, and that would be why I haven't uploaded by game up to Youtube. ^^;

Whatever. I tried playing through as Yusuke, and I got through the game... after two knows how many deaths and continues. *sigh*

I think I'll have to keep playing until I finally figure out where those hitboxes are... And where my character is, or else I won't be able to dodge those bullets the way I've seen others do; you know? I wish I had your skill...
