I'd love to see those 1943 scores. 4-5 million, I guess they always get the robot at the end? Anyone know how this works?

Thanks! The anti virus went a bit crazy on this torrent site but I have my IT guy to sort it out for me. He has a dedicated Torrent machine that should solve any risks.

Movi chan (100.000pts) is random. In 4.402.550 score the player obtain 4 Movi only.

if you don't want to do the torrent thing, here's a mirror of GEMANT's old files:

http://bbh.marpirc.net/gamest.zip

extract them all to a directory, open gamest.html

Really? Then I have no clue where all those points are coming from.

You can repeat the last stage for a number of hours (you would have to create a pattern and stick to it since there's so much going on and your life bar doesn't refill). Eventually it kicks you to the title screen if you do it too many times. I'm not sure if that's what someone did for the record, but that was my best guess when I was looking into it myself.

Thanks for the info guys. An idea how to fragment the ship twice would be nice though ;).

While we're at it, anyone care to speculate on the 14.96M 1942 score? I can see 14.5 if you started the game with more lives than default and got a few more 100% stages than novice. After that though it's difficult to figure out. I guess you could get more perfects but it seems like there are a number of levels where it's just impossible beacause of the planes coming out at the very end. Plus there's a luck factor there and I really doubt someone mananged to do it for all levels in one run.

Also, nice list Dan!
