High score thread

Using a new credit resets your score! Please only submit your score if the credit started on stage 1. Be sure to play on medium difficulty.

Just uh, note that Metal Black is notorious for how much its bonus stages influence score.

Pretty sure it automatically called me CNT.

So close to 1CCing through round 3 at this point. I spent quite a bit of time practicing it tonight. I still find it easy to die on parts of round 2, though.

244,340 - round 4

Finally made it through round 3 on one credit! The bosses are definitely easier than the rounds. It was tense making it to the boss of round 3 with only one life, but you can consistently take out his ball with a level 5 shot (I never whip out the giant beam on him).

I just realized. Who is making it to round 6 with 50,000 points?!

Getting consistent at rounds 2 and 3!

342,970 - round 5

Alright, I cleared round 4 on one credit! After that, I dumped two credits in the middle of round 5, two credits in the middle of round 6, and two credits on the round 6 boss.

My deaths were:

-During the fish part on round 2, when the last rocket is going upward. That always catches me off-guard. It moves faster upward than I expect.
-During the crushing hallway on round 3. I tried rushing it to get through before the worm could do anything.
-On a diagonal shooter in round 4.

No deaths to Amazo, luckily enough! I hear he gets easier if you have at least one death going into the fight.

392,890 - round 6

The 1CC is within reach! I got the creepy military coup ending. I'm getting better at beating the round 4 boss in one cycle (killing him before the screws start popping out). It's tight, but possible.

Game over on the cat phase. So close to that 1CC!!
