Well holy crap, Smash TV next? (I dare you)

Hmm, I forget, is the Pleasure Dome thing at the end BS? 220 keys seems like a lot. Maybe they just add 100 to what you got right?

Heeellllll no. I went through enough torture just trying to do this, and I'm really not consistent enough to get past Scarface on a regular basis. Too random.

It's totally possible, but you have to go through pretty much optional extra "warp" zone along the way so you can amass as many keys as possible. Stage 1 for instance, you can get a LOT more keys if you take the long way instead of using the shortcuts, but if you don't use the shortcuts then you'll have lost the bomb invincibility by the time you reach Orcus, and that makes it a LOT harder. Another big source of keys that I mostly ignore are during the jet missile strike stages, there are 2 or 3 keys hidden around each jet... but of course, it's incredibly dangerous to be walking all around them with all those mines, but I guess it's not much of a concern if you're credit-feeding to the end. For one-credit purposes, it's way too risky and I don't foresee anyone being capable of getting enough keys.

If you want to see the Pleasure Dome, start a game, go the little password thing at the bottom-right corner, and enter in "AZAZ" as the password.

I honestly hadn't played it at all in a long time, I sort of took it back up on a whim on March 12th. Once I figured out how important the shortcut warps were on Stage 1 it sort of renewed my will to play again.

Total gameplay time? I don't know, I use the commandline version. I guess around 2 or 3 hours each day?

hahaha, I've got to stop saying things like this.




....Smash TV is still impossible, though.

Cyvern not official GAMEST score is 41.104.500, official 29.837.260. Hm... 41mln, how it is possible? Only one place where I can leech some points is semi-boss on stage 1-4 and 2-4.

PS. Hehe, interesting method for comments in your new Total Carnage inp, BBH. I never early saw it.

Hi, I just signed up for MARP, but I have been on Twin Galaxies for a while(coolwhs there too). I noticed these bounties a couple weeks ago, and I have managed to conquer the ddonpach bounty with a final score of 30808230, proof of which is attached. Thanks!

hate to burst your bubble, but "finishing" Dodonpachi means clearing both loops, not just the first one.

oops.. didn't realize that there was a second level... it never showed up when I played... I guess there is a point threshold..

from Bernard Doria's Bee Preying page:
* Lose up to two fighters.
* Depending on the fighter used, have a maximum hit count of at least the following:
o Type A: 270 hits
o Type B: 300 hits
o Type C: 330 hits
* Score at least 50 million points.
* Collect all thirteen bees in four of the six areas.
any of the above will qualify you for the 2nd loop.
