Has anyone here played that rare shmup? I bought a harder to find copy of the original print, not the Summer Carnival '93 version  last Friday. Can't wait to play it! Looks awesome based on that YT vid I seen.  :dance:

Yeah, I have the regular and the special versions.  It's my favorite CD vert.  Great music and good, tough gameplay.

What is the difference between the original and the Summer Carnival '93 one?

Yeah, we'll have to give the Nexzr High Score thread some more action.

Great game.  Certainly one of the top-tier shooters on the PCE, which is saying quite a bit.

I've got both versions.  Great game and quite difficult.

Hard as hell, never got past the 2nd stage.  I love the soundtrack for the first 2 stages so far.

One my favs too but I didn't think it was that tough. The bosses in this game are quite easy & predictable.

The main problem I had with the game was the third level mini boss.  There is a nice youtube clip that shows how to beat it.

That's classic. When I first got the game I had the hardest f*cking time beating that guy. I basically survived on pure luck alone, which meant I only beat him like 1/10 tries.

That was until I found out if you equip the proper weapon and go above him he's cake. It was only by accident I figured it out.

I haven't seen the YouTube clip, but I am guessing that's how they do it?

The third mini boss is like the toughest enemy throughout the whole game. I've never been able to beat him without this wide range weapon you get previously in the level. I usually don't go above him but stay at the very left just below the wall. He can't hit you there while your wide range shot beats the shit out of him. Obviously, this is only possible if you pick up the weapon first

This mid-level boss is not that tough, is it?
