Still working through the series getting my normal 1ccs. Over the last three weeks I've nailed UFO, TD and just now DDC.
I practised Shinmy's spells a few times.
>Inchling's Path - Can make my way through about 70% and then usually bomb the rest
>Grow Bigger! - 50/50 on losing a life
>Shining Needle Sword - Kill this spell card with hammers. It took me 50 tries on practise mode to capture it.
>You Grow Bigger! - Can be iffy but 50/50 on losing a life
>Attack on Dwarf - It's sort of like Hoichi the Earless, so it's mainly no problem
>Hop-o'-My-Thumb Seven - This was fun to learn. I eventually learned to start really close to Shinmy and take her down a quarter, then do some green orb dodging before pulling back to do yellow orb dodging. Once the blue ones came in I just bombed it to hell. In practice I realized the arrival of yellow and blue orbs depends on damage done so I thought I could just time it out...until 25 seconds before the end when she got pissed and unleashed the whole thing on me.
I also finally captured Reverse Hierachy in this run.
And also fuck Benben and her stupid note swarm. I know where the hitboxes are but it still fucks me up.
