Pearl's Blog about dodging bullets.
« on: October 01, 2018, 12:38:44 pm »
Hi, I'm Pearl, I've recently started playing DK3 and it has been a very unique challenge for me compared to what I'm used to. I guess I can post progress on that game as well as some others that are on my plate.

Current PB Progress - Goal

DK3 Easy
1,054,200 Round 58 Suicide - 2,000,000+ (RBS Maybe in the future)

DK3 Hard
1,204,700 Round 65 End (Final for Now)

Battle Garegga
B,879,780(7) - C,000,000+

Armed Police Batrider
7,686,830(ALL) - A,000,000+

My most recent game was a Round 49 gameover on DK3 Hard, gameovering with 878,200.

Oct 2 2018
DK3 Hard 1m+ Achieved. 1.204M, Round 65.

Wow, nice improvement.  There is a place to submit scores if you want to.  You need an .inp though

I use ShmupArch (Modified version of RetroArch for less input lag in STG, does not affect DK3) which also does not generate an .inp file; so I dont have anything to submit. However I did record the replay of it which is at the time of this post, currently uploading.

It also should be noted that I dont really play to compete anymore rather to just improve my own PB's :)

Pearl, this is my advice.  Since your hands hurt with marathon settings, it's going to get more painful if you want to increase your scores.   I suggest sticking with five man.  The games are much shorter, and will bring less havoc on your hands.

Been about a week, Havent played DK3 in a bit, 2 other games have caught my heart but I have some updates!

A game I picked up is the Original Twinbee, from 1985.
I scored 2,024,600 on it; reaching the 3rd stage of the 3rd loop (Stage 13)
Only 2 extends can be earned and when you die in anything past Loop 3, be prepared to lose the rest of your lives.
I took my first miss in 3-1, yelled through 3-2 and died at the start of 3-3.

In the future I'd like to maybe score 10,000,000 on this game.


And the 2nd game, is Phantasmagoria of Dim. Dream.

This game is honestly probably my favorite STG of all time, it's fast, it's hectic, it's hard, it's just amazing.

^^ Is my current progress for the game.
74,116,130 - Mima- Stage 9
60,422,450 - Kotohime - Stage 8
55,003,030 - Reimu - ALL
50,671,290 - Yumemi - ALL
49,237,820 - Marisa - Stage 9
41,313,780 - Chiyuri - Stage 6

PoDD will be the game that I'll stream for the foreseeable future, with the 2 goals of 1CC'ing with every character on Lunatic, as well as 100,000,000 Points.

As for DK3, when I return to it (I will!) I will be going for RBS on Easy Mode.

Small update. I have pushed my Chiyuri score (And overall PB) on PoDD to 93,726,580


I think this is the single most aggrevating game someone can play for score; when using Chiyuri; Ive come close to smashing things so many times lmao

Total playtime : 22H 59M 51S

It's been a while! I got a PS4 for christmas so I purchased the Battle Garegga port for it and have been playing for score these past few days.

Premium Mode N,861,480


Super Easy E,738,680



Still getting used to pad, so my movement still struggles a lot. Going to start playing more Arcade mode, see if I can get an overall PB.

Overall Garegga goals are :
Arcade C,500,000
Super Easy G,500,000
Premium Q,000,000

I saw you streaming Garegga earlier.  I thought that might be a console port.  No idea why I just found this blog - looking forward to your DK3 progress when you get back into it.  Looking forward to seeing you compete in the upcoming tournament...

Yolympics has came and went and it was a lot of fun,
Got 101M on DDP (Still no 2-ALL...)
44M on Espgaluda with a No-Miss.

As for non Yoly games, I reached Area 50 in Halley's Comet (autofire) and got close to counterstopping it.
As well as 2-ALL'ing Mission Craft, 1-ALL'ing Muchi Muchi Pork, Reaching 12-1 on Crazy Kong Galaxian, 2-4 in DonPachi USA, and 1CC'ing Giga Wing with 50 Trillion points.

I havent forgot about DK3, I wish to return to it one day, but there is just too much I want to do for now. And when I do return to it I will be aiming for Easy RBS

My current aims are :
100,000,000,000,000+ in Giga Wing
Reaching 2-5 in DonPachi USA
1CC'ing DoDonPachi 2 (Hopefully with atleast 1,000,000,000?)
9,999,990 in Halley's Comet
A,000,000 in Batrider; C,000,000 in Garegga
50,000,000 in EspGaluda


Take care everyone, I am very excited to play in the next Yolympics
