Topic: Arcade SHMUP High Score Thread

@GFoyle I've only spent a few hours with SENGOKU 3 and WULVERBLADE and whilst obviously quite different, they both are great, great beat-em-ups. Quite hard though ☺️

@Lroy

It's on😃

My best so far..

Absolutely loving Sengoku☺

@hybridseed Yes, I noticed we were both playing at the same time this afternoon. I managed to jump ahead of you but you've now leapfrogged over me by some distance. I cracked 100, 000 but am about 23rd I think on the Global Leaderboard.

I still haven't managed to kill the Boss of China 🇨🇳

Anyone able to link me to a video of how to defeat the China Boss quickly?

Sorry I’ve been MIA, but apparently launching a YouTube channel and taking it seriously leaves no time for Leaderboards. Sadly. I’m still around and will be looking to participate real soon. In the meantime, I’m happy to see the leaderboards alive and going strong.

@Lroy What works for me is to use your special Ninja Art while he's to your right.. Pin him in the corner and mash that [removed] up💪

@Lroy
Just go near and use BBBYYY combo. When you get the timing right it is actually quite easy. If you are having trouble approaching the boss just use dash attack and maybe start a juggling combo. You can also add some ninja arts: down, down Y/B.

@hybridseed Is your 'special Ninja art' down, down and B?

Also what other 'special moves' are people using? Or how do you do them? ☺️

I just seem to be spamming BBB, right/right, BBB to keep enemies in the air for multiple hits or the same routine but with Y.

Also i'm trying to break everything in sight. I keep hold of the ninja stars as you get a bonus for every one over 9 but does picking up the plates or bombs award you any points?

The blue flying skulls that appear in the third area of China give you some gold coins on occasion.

Any other tips? For extra points?

@Lroy ⬇⬆A+B ☺

P.S I have my B button set as jump, that's how I prefer it and it avoids any accidental non score upload😉

@hybridseed Mind your language!

@Qualitybeats Hey Dude, good to hear from you. Look forward to you tearing up the leaderboards again soon 👌

@Octane My bad... I'll edit myself..

Edit, you already edited me.. Mash that [Removed] up😂😂😂

@Zkibu Thanks buddy. Hadn't realised you had replied beforehand. Thank you.

That's a wise move. I'm going to do that in future I think.

This game is a lot of fun. I managed a descent score last night, now ranking #11 on the big scoreboard. It’s all about combos and speed. And don’t forget to trash the background tables, bikes, aquariums,etc...

I’ve increased my score from 30k to now 100k+. I’ll post a score later tonight.

As far as Dragon Blaze, that is a very hard game! I’m doing 1CC but can just get into the 100ks. That game will be a huge challenge if we do it next.

@OorWullie

Here here...Dragon Blaze is rough!!! I’m surprised at how tough it is. Trying to avoid the bullets is near impossible.

@Agent721 Kinda glad I haven't bought it yet then, it's harder than Strikers 1945?

I don't know if I can put myself through that!

@hybridseed

Yes, much harder. It’s still a lot of fun to play though, but I’m having a hard time dodging bullets as compared to Strikers 1945. I’ve only played a handful of sessions though.

@monkeyspasm

I’m down to revisit all the games on 1CC.

What characters is everyone using on Sengoku 3? I’m using Katgetsura. I like his speed and the combo attacks he does between punches and slashes. I can clear levels pretty quickly with him.

I also love his look, reminds me of Hiryu from Strider.
