please count me in for Dangun Feveron ( I promised I would help on this game
, and I feel like killing stuff fast while trying to keep my chain -- with bombs, if needed. I hope that the memorization needed for this game will be at the same level as in Thunder Dragon 2, which isn't much :p )
Why is ESP Ra.De. so goddamn hard...seriously, the second extend is way too hard to get, the bombs do almost nothing to the bosses and stages 5 and 6 are another game compared to 1-4.
there's one extend at 4 million points, the second extend at the stage 4 ( the last wagon of the second train -- which comes downwards quickly -- has an extend, which is destroyed if you use a bomb on it, so you may bomb to clear enemies/bullets when you're at the second train before the extend appears ), and then the third extend at 8 million points. You must practice 16x multipliers, and realize that..
- during a multiplier session, collecting point items extend the multiplier timer ( you can see the timer if you hold B and then press Start at the title screen, after having inserted a coin )
- when you have reached the current maximum point item capacity, destroying enemies with the primary shot during a multiplier session will make enemies drop point items as well ( for example, there's some yellow enemy ships on Yusuke's stage -- Houoh High School -- which are made of 3 parts, you can shoot them to keep your chain )
- stage 4 has lots of 16x-able enemies after the armed wagons, also you'll want to practice the 4th boss in order to at least know/recognize the most dangerous patterns.. bombing them will buy you some time to damage the boss and get over them
- the tank at the beginning of stage 5 is better dealt (iirc) if you try to stay aligned with it, doing the proper dodge moves (micrododging is safe there, I think), rather than trying to take out the enemies at the right side first
- if you ever get to 5-2 ( inside the mansion ), holding bomb as 2P slows down the chain timer (carried from the 5-1 boss), while killing enemies with bomb increases it ( and there's lots of Alice clones on it. Please watch warmly:

Also, I need a easy shmup to 1cc.
perhaps Armed Police Batrider on Training Course (I'd recommend you to use some
codes in order to enable secret characters and to allow single-character mode, *and* reading the
SPECIAL BOSS APPEARANCES section in order to *avoid* fighting hidden bosses and Envy -- the Shot/Option Special Level Ups mentioned there, are acquired by missing 3 of these items and then picking one of them)
