TAS scoreboard
<< < (14/17) > >>
Karisa:
That wasn't what I expected.

Is that even TAS-only? Seems like it could be done in a real-time run-- might need to disallow the glitch from scoreboards, if it turns out to be doable.

I think the score's been unsigned at least since TD (can't test right now). I recall being able to force the score to over 42 billion there when finding addresses, though score normally caps at 9,999,999,990 in PCB+ games (displayed as 1,410,065,398 in UFO and GFW).

Maybe the actual score was made unsigned when attempting to fix the UFO/GFW overflow? Though those games actually overflow the displayed score, probably in the routine that inserts commas (considering the commas were first added in UFO, and the actual score is displayed correctly when commas aren't included, such as on the replay stage-by-stage scores).
Avakyon:
There is a spell practice replay of it here. It only requires getting damage in quickly so you can spend as much time as possible slowing it down.
Karisa:
Looking at it more closely now that you mention that, I noticed the TAS also managed to reach 3 power without gaining many points (only around 114500 when the bonus was -117260), which might've been needed to deal the damage quickly enough?
Mino ☆:


I actually managed to pull this off in spell practice without any tool assistance. Basically SakuyaA's knives slow down the spell timer, so if you hold your knives on her until just before the spell ends, you can kill the spell as the bonus decreases into the negative integers.

Idk if this can be done in a full run though. You'd have to be able to get the bonus low enough to put your own score into the negatives, which means your score has to be very low going into the spell. You'd also need power to do it, which could be risky to gather while there's point items everywhere.
Uruwi:
It might be possible in the main game if you shoot carefully, get mostly power items, and get multiple negative spell bonuses. What TAS is doing, though, is near impossible for a human player.

The Extra stage, in contrast, gives you full power from the start so you can just pacify the game until you get a negative SCB (presumably on the Tsukumo sisters' card).
