I'll go for it again later. | ||

If any of you have arcade sticks, just use Joy2Key and map the keys to the keyboard controls. Feels good man.

Of course I never tried for the achievement after I played it for awhile, BECAUSE I'M TOO COOL FOR SCHOOL. Glad I'm not the only one who did it, makes the game 10x more fun. | ||

That didn't stop the Lost Vikings achievement from being annoying due to jerky movements and, well, the need to invest an entire hour of my time to something painfully repetitive. Spamming the space bar is also not fun, and if I'm allowed to nitpick further, having bomb be control and shot be space bar seems to make no sense to me. And if were really going to talk about other shmups now, Touhou still pales in comparison to games like... well, pretty much anything by Cave. | ||

u should get 2 drones as soon as u can because drones r 2 more weapons and 2 more lives! after that u should get missiles. plasma do more dmg on sngle target but its much easier to beat boss with missiles than to survive until boss with plasmabeam. if other r full, get bombs/shields! and most important use bombs/shields every time u see no possibility to avoid dmg! there r much more upgades than u need anyway. so use them! u will need them mostly for zerglevel and second and perhaps last boss and terran level against science vessels or if u find urself captured behind this lightningbeams. | ||

 I didn't feel like trying again after that. It shouldn't be too hard to get 500.000 though so I guess ill do it later at some point. | ||

The time I got it, I wanted to make SURE that didn't happen, so I farmed interceptors from the carriers each of the three runs for a bit to make sure I had 500K before I had to face terra-tron a third time. Ended up getting like 560K anyways before getting bored and suiciding. | ||

I would call myself clutch right now  Was the last achievement I needed also.Was much easier with those Plasma Weapons. Laser''s DPS is meh, even if you shoot everywhere at once. | ||

Getting plasma beam was a big mistake on level 6 wraiths. Get side missiles and try to get plasma before terratron. That's probably the hardest transition you have to do. I just used side missiles for carrier and leviathan. You don't really need the transition if you got plenty of bombs stocked up. Side missiles and 2 drones rip through the Wraiths and the Science Vessels (the 2 BCs are pretty easy, too), so you should be able to pick up plenty of bombs without having to use any/many. Then you can just keep side missiles and each time the Terra-trons platforms/arms fire their goop, just shoot off the bomb and watch it all poof. Only things you'll have to dodge is the sweeping beam and the bouncing disk, both of which are ridiculously easy to avoid without all other projectiles on screen | ||

I also would've gotten the 500k at level 8 already; probably because I farmed Interceptors in levels 1, 4 and 7 and generally used side missiles to get the most out of the enemies. edit: Oh, and thanks, Opossum, neat piece of code! Saved me the hassle of getting that together myself | ||

 You can instantly kill everything if you're moving sideways a bit, making rockets and siderockets hit everything. Drones are also very nice to have as soon as possible and bombs after. I used bombs mainly only at Zerg and Terran bosses, because I got a bit lazy dodging all their lasers and tentacles. Well it took me about 1½ hours to get this and my left arm was... hurt due space smashing :D tried to switch to wasd and right hand space, but it felt bad as controlling viking with left hand was a bit meh for me Well atleast for me, side rockets and drones were they key and I didn't really need bombs | ||

I'll go for it again later. Dunno, I suck at Touhou(stuck at stage 4 boss on Lunatic in MoF) but cleared Lost Viking on my first try with no deaths. Just get side missiles and then spam drones and only concentrate on evading and stuff will die to the drones eventually. | ||
