Grats on your 1cc. What did you think of the game?

Give espgaluda or mushi a try maybe.

I started playing that Saturn game, Radiant Silvergun. The game seemed impossible at first with the three buttons and all the combinations, but after playing for a while, I started to get used to it. It seems pretty fun, but I need to play more to reach any conclusions.

I like it a lot. This was my first shmup 1cc as far as I can remember (I've 1cc'd run 'n' guns but haven't really gotten into shmups until now). I like all the shot-types, you end up feeling super powerful at the end.
Mushi's definitely on my list. I'm thinking next will probably be DoDonPachi or one of the Touhou games.

Congrats, now enjoy your newfound addiction for arcade clears.

.
Also the difficulty dip actually does something here so use level 8 when level 4 becomes too easy for you. The game has an invisible dynamic rank system either way that drops the CPU level when you die anyways

Also, as far as difficulty, the Jupiter boss in stage 4 is by far the hardest part and the part where I got filtered the most

Jupiter > Stage 3 (not the boss) > Madzella > Stage 4 itself >>>> everything else in terms of difficulty

I know Battle Garegga has a system like that but turned up to the max
I'm turned off by Garegga moreso because of the bullets you can barely see
I'm actually pretty interested in playing Armed Police Batrider which came out after, how much do you have to pay attention to the rank system in that?

DDP 1-all definitely isn't too bad of an early 1cc and pretty fun.

Many arcade games have rank in some form, but in some it matters more than others. That's not of them, it's only worth mentioning because the difficulty dip has a large effect on it.
>Garegga/Batrider
Didn't play these

If you play the M2 shot triggers port they have an option to change the bullet color. People often change the color to pink.
>how much do you have to pay attention to the rank system in that
You basically don't if you're just playing for survival. Batrider advanced is about as hard as Garegga to *just* 1cc though, so be aware.

I would if they put it on PC
I have a PS4 but at this point it's just collecting dust. I don't even feel like hooking it up to play Bloodborne anymore.

The garegga port is even on the English storefront. It's super easy, dont even need to make a japanese account for that one. I've found 95% of the value I've gotten from my ps4 has been m2 ports, haha. Also, if you really want to it's super easy to transfer replays to PCs via a flash drive, although quality won't be as good as a capture card.

Beltiana? You didn't beat the game
Congrats. I did my 1cc with her too.

Not that much, V has a miniscule player hithox comparable to bullet hell.

Question for anons, when you're playing shmups do you ever do something passive like listen to a podcast or audiobook, or even watch something on a second monitor? I know the soundtracks are often good but when you've listened to it a bit do you ever put anything else on

Nah that's distracting. Even the game music is actually.

Nice! DDP is a great game but it would be a big difficulty jump from Batsugun Special. I recommend doing first the Touhou games on normal. 6, 7, 8 and 10 are all great starting points. Also 4 but you need a PC-98 emulator for that one. If you're interested in Toaplan's early stuff, I highly recommend Flying Shark. It's a simple game that teaches fundamentals such as streaming, shotgun, bullet sealing, routing and resource management. It's difficult, but not brutally so.

I play stuff on the second monitor for most games and these are no exception. It's chill to practice a stage and chill out.

I don't think DDP 1-all is really harder, C-S rapes the screen and you can bomb spam your way to victory. 2-all is a completely different beast but still reasonable for people who have played enough shmups.
