Bombed at the same time bullets point blanked me, ruined my whole game from there. it's amazing how quickly i forget these games. Then again, i don't play them everyday, but it does come back quick. I have respect for those who can continue to play these games each week or month.

I have first 6 stages perfectly planned in my mind, it's just a small matter of executing my plan :) But I always refuse to bomb at some point, fail to dodge the bullets and lose my composure for the rest of the run.

Not a bad shooter. Did a play-through to see what's what: without firepower, levels 5, 6 and Final Boss are nigh-on impossible. TiF might stand a chance given his shooting skills.... And Rank plays it's part, though cannot work out if it is success that increased Rank or number of shots (a la Battle Garegga).

Japan is a tough starting level. And I have managed over 100k after level 1, but have no idea how or why when majority of scores are in the 40k bracket.

Rank increase is when you grab power ups and they are worth 2000. The bullets do not fire any faster, though. Just more enemies.

I may be mistaken but I think that rank in this game is just related to firepower and grabbing additional powerups when fully powered does not increase it any further. And the bullets seem to be faster when on power 4 compared to power 3?

Stage 5 is easiest for me with power 3 (2 power ups collected), I usually only collect final powerup for the boss fight.

Starting levels aren't worth the same amount of points. You're using Kohful, so you never get Sweden (worth ~75k). Japan is worth ~105k, Britain ~70k, USA ~48k.

I meant when you start hitting 2000 for the powerups, thats max rank.
