JacobZu7zu7 Posted January 6, 2012 Share Posted January 6, 2012 3rd try... 44,010 really stinks how I lost my last life... I was doing my dodge and shoot, while the detection was very unforgiving, I could have sworn I cleared the LAST enemy plane. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ikrananka Posted January 10, 2012 Author Share Posted January 10, 2012 Just curious what you guys use for a controller when playing this game. I have been using the stock CV controller and find with the combination of rapid firing and continuous dodging movements required that I just cannot get a decent score. So, please let me know what you use/recommend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jblenkle Posted January 11, 2012 Share Posted January 11, 2012 If I'm playing via emulator I use my logitech joypad...if on the ColecoVision I use my Amiga PowerStick...the standard CV controller isn't very good for this game.

So, please let me know what you use/recommend. Thanks for the info Joe. I decided to try something other than my stock controller. I tried a converted NES pad but found the D-Pad on it too difficult for the rapid changes of direction that this game needs. I then tried my Suncom Joy Sensor pad which I have never used and found it to be really quite good on this game. I managed to achieve a personal best of 37,430. It was certainly cool seeing some of the later stages that I have never seen before Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ikrananka Posted January 14, 2012 Author Share Posted January 14, 2012 I must say that the Twin Galaxies high score is quite incredible for this very tough game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
