Made it to Level 3...! fast enough!? I cannot get beyond that point...

The shield could be a bit stronger then it is.

 

With the directional pad that I'm using, it's sometimes luck getting thorugh the trap walls

scrolling up/down 3 in a row. Hard to get the right ship speed/angle.

I just broke the TG record for this game: 85,006!

I may have to hook up the ol' VCR and record a game or two to send in. :)

 

I'm starting to think there may actually be a 4th detonator. Maybe a possible way to reach it would be to enter the 4th level with full shields and as you get close to the end, run into a bunch of crap. Sacrificing your shields (and points) might bring up the 4th detonator. Just a hunch...I may have to try that.

You could try that tatic and possibly others before the 4th detonator!

Tip: you can pass two close flashing gates at once after the 3rd detonator.

Tip: as said in the past weekend, one can shoot the lower part of the walls and open a wide path at once.

Last resource: when Dtime is ending, don't lose time taking the energy tank, shoot it before...

Not very good tips, but if I come up with something, I'll tell you. ;)

 

Try every tatic you can imagine (even shooting energy tanks) before the 1st detonator and verify (take a chronometer) what is the fastest way. I'm not sure, e.g. if letting the homming misseles pass is faster.

 

If there's a 4th detonator, I hope you blast it. Good luck!
