MGL 17 Game 6- Star Force [COMPLETED]


Recommended Posts

1,010,400 Star Force

 

Best shmup ever.

 

Maybe a bit carried away but this game typifies what shmup is all about.

I love this game and would rate it in my top 10 arcade games of all time for me. Tehkan had something going in 1984

Have very found memories of this game BITD :D

 

When Star Force was dialled up in the MGL two weeks ago, I sent a PM that day to @lien Zed to have a go.

You can see why below...

 

Your favourite No.1 game?

Seriously: Star Force

Even after playing it for 30 years i still am far far far from mastering it and its a bloody rippa game

Unfortunately I have not heard from him and I am not sure if he is still active on the forum.

So I had to submit a score for a wonderful Tehkan game that is one of the greatest challenges in the shmup universe.

Thats a great score, I just had another couple of games and made Stage 10 again but couldn't get through it. Do any of the later levels get any easier/stay the same or does it still get harder.

Stage 10 is a great effort!

 

I am glad to say it gets harder later on.

It is raining ships and bullets and it gets very exciting and manic.

When they designed this game, they were sure to make it hard.

 

There is a section where they don't shoot for a certain time.

Then all hell breaks loose, and I am not kidding.

 

Truly a magnificent game, as you and @lien Zed have mentioned.

 

May the Star Force be with you!

 

:)

I can guarantee that Martin (the pro) Bedard was playing on the harder TG settings. How do I know this? 1. I was playing in the same TG decathlon and 2. If this was on default settings Martin would've scored the 1M Cleopatra bonus on stage 10. No ifs. No buts. He is that good. TG settings are 2 settings harder than default. Why? No idea.

Because playing on hard settings means shorter games and less work for the refs :D

1M Cleopatra bonus?

 

There's a hidden bonus on stage 10. Shoot a certain spot repeatedly to make a mask appear then shoot it enough times for a million points and some crap about Cleopatra waking from her slumber. I've never made it that far. There's a score on marp that gets it twice.
