SoEW lunatic. If I hadn't lost 8 bombs, it'd have been a 1cc; last death was at the very end of Mima's first form, with four bombs in stock. Goddamn SoEW hitboxes.

The worst part? I find SoEW so incredibly annoying that playing it twice in a row has made me not want to touch again it for at least a week, even knowing that the next attempt will be a 1cc no matter how badly I play.

I don't remember unlocking it, but I found Unseasonable Butterfly Storm in my spell practice.

Seventy-one tries later, I'm wondering if I should just leave it and come back after I've leveled up to Hard mode. And yet I was so close to capturing it... >_<

Tried a PoDD run with Ellen.

Unlike the Reimu and Rikako runs, I highly doubt that's reproduceable - I needed multiple miracles per level, and getting past Chiyuri while dying only once (the other previous death was to Reimu) involved something in the order of a miracle every five seconds.

Ellen is still a lot better than Kana, though - you can get lucky with the spinning balls.

I can't get Jaimers' solution for recording PC-98 fullscreen working for me: every single recording software I tried insists on auto-alt-tabbing back to it when I hit the "start recording" hotkey, and then I'm back at the desktop with a (now GLITCHING) windowed emulator. Switching the emulator back to fullscreen gives the same result as always: solid black.

Huh, that's weird. What do you use to record? I highly recommend Hypercam seeing as it is THE recording tool for PC-98.
I have it set up like this.
It does do the weird auto-alt-tabbing after ending the recording, but that's no biggie.

Maybe your windows has something other hotkeyed to the recording hotkey?

EDIT:
If this still does not work, you can place your windowed screen in the topleft corner, hit record, switch to fullscreen and you will still record it.

Why the hell did it take me 69 attempts to time out Lifespring Infinity on Lunatic? The attack isn't that hard.

Also Hourai Jewel sucks. Should be fine if I can get there with a life or 2 in stock, but at my current level, I doubt I could.

170m stage green ufo failed undefined darkness failed rainbow ufo failed
FFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU

EDIT: Half accomplishment, half epic fail.

Seriously.....her survival should be a 100% cap.

If I would cap it, it would be all cards capped and over 370m.

EDIT2: Pretty close again, failed her final this time.

Chaotic Phoenixma · « **Reply #786 on:** December 12, 2009, 06:06:32 PM »

Here's how my UFO Extra attempts always end up like one of these

1. Game Over before Nue
2. Lose resources overall during the stage and game over on Red or Blue UFOs.
3. Lose resources overall during the stage then game over on a nonspell.

And the one that just happened to me twice, sadly:

Lose resources overall during the stage and game over Snake Show.

Also, Kogasa is total BS. Lightly falling Large Hitboxes and clipdeath, Clipdeath Typhoon, Lasers appear too damn fast.

Bananamatic · « **Reply #787 on:** December 12, 2009, 06:08:08 PM »

Red and Blue are pretty easy....if you know how.
I'll probably upload a guide on Blue, as I've had lots of trouble with it myself.

Sen · « **Reply #788 on:** December 12, 2009, 07:36:48 PM »

Personally I don't even know how you people get to Nue with any resources in hand. The last third or so of the stage just utterly destroys me, I can't do anything without bombing like six times or losing a few lives. :C

I don't need any resources for Nue :V

The rest of the stage is pretty easy IMO....but it can cause problems I guess.

Chaotic Phoenixma · « **Reply #790 on:** December 12, 2009, 08:51:22 PM »

How the hell did I just die 4 times to IN Stage 3?

And Marisa's nonspells are a load of bullshit as well. They give you even smaller gaps than Flandre's(or almost any) survival card does.

Bananamatic · « **Reply #791 on:** December 12, 2009, 09:10:13 PM »

Good run until survival, failed survival, failed grudge bow, gg

EDIT: 20m less than expected on stage, failed survival, captured grudge bow

hurr

EDIT2: Failed Karakasa Surprising Slash. When that happens, turn off the game and make some pizza.

Chaotic Phoenixma · « **Reply #792 on:** December 12, 2009, 10:13:35 PM »

Now I just failed a 7 starting lives run to unlock the final stage.

Due to a death with 5 bombs in stock on Reisen I didn't have enough to finish.

Much shorter deathbomb times on nonspells, stage protions piss me off. I got hit by Reisen's second nonspell and pretty much died instantly. Good bye 5 bombs. Then the run game overs on Hourai Jewel, so I don't get the stage for practice.

Just game overed on Rainbow UFO. What am I doing wrong on this stage?

Update.

Rikako vs. Chiyuri history, not recording: 4/5 over four games

Rikako vs. Chiyuri history, recording: ~~1/13~~ 2/17 over ~~three~~ four games (edited because I forgot one game :V)

I'm seriously considering hijacking my sister's brand new computer, because random stutter and occasional lag spikes are something you do NOT want when facing Chiyuri.

Also: why the hell is LLS extra so much harder than LLS lunatic?

...What. I can easily beat LLS Extra, Lunatic is an entirely different story. Are you grazing enough? You get lots of extends with more points, and grazing gives tons and tons of points.

I'm getting tons of extends, but what good is it if I clip everything.

LLS lunatic is stream stream stream stream stream until you get bored of streaming then you stream some more because it isn't over yet. That, and bombing Yuka's first and last phases in stage 6. And bombing Kurumi too because her spinning circles can get really stupid at max rank. Bombspamming Marisa isn't a bad idea either. (You are using ReimuA, right? Because no matter what Baity says, ReimuA makes LLS lunatic a lot easier.)

Anyone but ReimuA = you get shot from the sides/rammed from every direction while streaming, making the stages unnecessarily nerve-wracking.

Tried extra once again.... cleared it 3/0 despite some horrible mistakes. I really don't understand.

Bananamatic · « **Reply #799 on:** December 13, 2009, 01:20:07 AM »

Wow.
I completely failed to see a laser on Nue's first card and got my loli pretty much penetrated.

Chaotic Phoenixma · « **Reply #800 on:** December 13, 2009, 01:42:10 AM »

What the hell is up with PoDD? I can only make it to stage 3 of Lunatic on one credit, and I usually game over on stage 1 or 2.

At least I can actually dodge some crap in PoFV.

Tck, failed a UFO extra no death run because I got blindsided on Green UFOs. I know I can do this, and for some reason trying doesn't make me angry...

If I can do this, you can do this too :V

Green UFO is also on my shitlist....kind of.
It's easy to get bs'd or clip something.

By the way....do you chain greens like crazy or are you doing it no bombs? And which shottype :V

And I need to check your replay.

ebarrett · « **Reply #803 on:** December 13, 2009, 02:32:06 AM »

Trying a ~~Unreasonable~~ Unseasonable Butterfly Storm timeout.

Things were going progressively better until I got it down to 26 seconds twice.... now I can't get past 66. And the really hard waves are at 56 and 46, everything before 56 should be cake.

edit: twice got to 32 seconds only to die to rampant stupidity. I'll leave this one for later, raging too much right now and I'll end up waking the neighbours.

Bananamatic · « **Reply #804 on:** December 13, 2009, 02:49:51 AM »

Alright checking that replay now.
183k stage, failed green UFO, failed rainbow ufo(and stupidly at that), then forgot that there is one more white mass on the second phase and rammed it like an idiot

EDIT: and to top it off, I shit on Grudge Bow like nothing at TWO POWER

hurr

EDIT2:
Checked that replay.
Some stuff:
1) Kogasa's first card shouldn't be done at the bottom - after 80+ attempts like that, I know that being a little higher is much better.
Bomb the second one without mercy.

2) Nue.
Second noncard - Pretty much streaming.

Red UFO - Streaming. It spins right, left, right, etc.
Opposite side=death.

Go right, kill one or two, go to the center, then left, kill 1-2, center, repeat.

Third noncard should be bombed as 4 power is very useful for the Blue UFO card.

From my experience, the Blue UFO card comes in 2 waves, one is in one direction and the other one goes a bit more randomly.
Kill the first wave completely then just shoot Nue while watching out for the incoming UFOs in your direction.

Green UFO - ALWAYS go to the closest to the wall safespot. It's much, much safer there. Change the spots after every wave.

Undefined Darkness - If she spawns some bullets offscreen, they disappear completely.
Lure her to a corner before doing anything, then stream it down - it's almost harmless when it starts off, as the bullets gain speed.
You can finish it off before she reaches the bottom.

Rainbow UFO - The UFO streams come as double/single/repeat.
Kill the UFOs, read the bullets, shoot Nue between the waves and don't panic.
If you don't kill the UFOs, you can still dodge, but it makes it a lot easier to finish it fast when you do.

Replay here, almost all cards captured.
Yeah, I've done Green UFO a bit more dangerously, but I won't do it like that now :V

I personally find the Lunatic version to be annoying as hell, and I often end up just going "Screw it." and bombing.

Another attempt at recording a Rikako 1cc.

No deaths until Yumemi, who then beat me five times, all but the last with her being at half a heart and no bombs at the time of my demise. orz

edit for additional info:
the Chiyuri battle lasted over five minutes, and the Yumemi battle lasted an average of over three minutes per round. very annoying to not get the 1cc on this one.
