Deadly Disc color scheme

I believe this is inaccurate. I have wiped out wave after wave of enemy with no recognizer coming out. Once I have 6 or more doors open, then is when the recognizer comes out after wiping out the wave of warriors. Try it.

As mr_me says, you have to actually go through the doors. He comes out every time after that.

We do play similar style.  Very impressive score.

 

I still could never get that score.  I play to about 4 million and I am pretty done.  30-40 mins.

 

How did you record this?  I want to record a few things.

 

When the recognizer comes from the right, if you moved slightly more to the left, inch or so based on the scale of the video.  Shoot just as the recognizer stops.  You should get a first shot hit every time.

Of course, I am giving advice to the record holder  

 

 

 

Thanks man! Recorded on my iPhone, compressed the video using a video compressor app (that’s a must), then transferred it to my laptop and uploaded it to both TG and YouTube. I’ve done it for a few record scores.

 

As for the recognizer coming from the right, I’ve tried every spot before coming to a a conclusion on the spot I chose. But I will take another look. Appreciate the advice!  ?

We must have different ROMs. The code I am looking at says otherwise.

I play on the original cart. Watch my video. You’ll see the recognizer come out right after I pass through any door…all the time.  Mr_me knows this as well as he has competed with us in the HSC on this game.

Yes, if you use the doors, the recognizer comes out after every wave of enemies.  Can't get any more frequent than that.  I always found him to be a nice break in the action and easy points, for the most part.  There is a risk of missing and losing your doors.

I confirmed the code. There are two triggers to making the recognizer come out. When you go through two doors (as you said) and when you have 7 or more doors open; no need to go through them.

Still have to use the doors if you want to see the recognizer after every wave.  Otherwise you'll wait a few waves, not sure how many waves as it seems somewhat random.

Fixed!

Deadlier Disc is almost done. I could use help on the following please.

 

The purpose of the recognizer to come out is to close the doors. The trigger to get him to think of coming out is if 2 or more doors are open. Once this is met, should he wait a good time before coming out? Come out quickly?

 

What situation needs to occur for the enemies to get the brown or white disc?

 

This version is much faster than the original. Should it be easier to kill the enemies?

 

Thanks!

Side buttons now shoot forward, backward, and block. Almost there.

Are you going to put this to cart form?

I want one if you do!

I am done with CIB releases. *IF*, which is highly unlikely, I help anyone with game boards, I might stock up a few to sell just the game boards. I prefer sell games digitally. The market for digital releases is around 30 buyers. I am hoping that of all those that have an LTO Flash, some people might put them to use to play the games.
