*** Blazing Star ***... professional help needed

[Large]

Does someone of you know how to reproduce this vertical lines with blue bonus items that are appearing sometimes in level 2 (single line) and 4 (double line) and maybe in other levels, too? It drives me crazy, because they are only coming to the screen sometimes... please help me! I need the points! <IMG SRC="smilies/wink.gif" border="0">

Thanks

I *THINK* what you have to do is finish the level "fast". Basically wiping out the enemies as fast as possible so the next batches can appear on the screen... at least, that's what it felt like to me. Best way to do it is to use Windina and just fire like mad from the middle of the screen. Sorry I can't help more but this is what works for me. <IMG SRC="smilies/smile.gif" border="0">

Wow! 20 million. That's really great. Congratulations! Level 6 is hard as hell.

Hmmm... I never tried it with the Windina, I prefer the Hell-Hound, but maybe I should try it this way <IMG SRC="smilies/smile.gif" border="0"> Have you discovered only the two lines I talked about?

okay BBH, what's the dipswitch for that. <IMG SRC="smilies/smile.gif" border="0">

Large: yeah, that's what I was talking about, those two columns of bonus items. I'm pretty sure the level has to be cleared "quickly" because when I do that on Stage 4, after all the bonus items there's a few seconds where absolutely nothing happens until the boss message shows up... feels kinda weird. Anyway, getting those bonuses at the maxed-out 81,560 value is necessary when you want to get 20 million. <IMG SRC="smilies/biggrin.gif" border="0">

Iori: What dipswitch? <IMG SRC="smilies/smile.gif" border="0">

@BBH: Fast? Hmm... I try it out. I am not sooo far away from your score <IMG SRC="smilies/smile.gif" border="0"> Which difficulty do you use?

Cheers
