"learn to fly" is the only achievement online

jplima 19 May 2021 01:28
check if you are using the correct ROM.

Mastered! :D
mad0gre 13 Oct 2021 01:15
Mastered :) Turns out Tyris was better than Gilius for a perfect run. I was playing this wrong when I was a kid.

Excellent set!

Nice tight set.
BroccoliRob 9 Jan 2023 16:08
Great set! That perfect on level 9 gave me some grief, but I got it done. Thanks!
anbernic 13 Apr 2023 20:37
Thank you for a great and enjoyable set! I had a blast revisiting the game.

Right Rom: Set 4 - Japan

Arcade sets like this one should have several achievements for beating the game with x number of credits. Beating this game even with 3 credits isn't easy.
Mutawarrior 2 Jun 2023 02:04
I think 3 should be the standard for minimum in regular sets and 1CC's should be reserved for Bonus sets. Most players in arcades would spend 3 credits for a game. 3 is a good number because it gives a fair amount of tries without being credit spamming.
RoboMech 6 Jun 2023 10:38
The whole credits thing should be turned into a sort of difficulty selection for arcade sets.
Easy - beat a game using 5 credits (10)
Normal - beat a game using 3 credits (25)
Hard - beat a game using only 1 credit (50)

Is Double Bone Trouble at the end of Stage 7? Im having a really hard time with that one.
johann88 22 Oct 2023 00:10
the ghost skeletons are "hurry up" enemies that spawn after you wait around for a while
Limelight1210 22 Oct 2023 00:19
Thanks! I had no idea that even existed until now.

How does the 1cc on this version compare to the 1cc on the Genesis/Mega Drive version?
valzi 2 Apr 2025 18:58
1cc is the core achievement for any game that uses credits, especially arcade ones, but yeah, it'd be awesome to have achievements for other credit counts too. Those are also good goals to work toward.
