Thanks all! That means a lot to me.
Please give the game a try if you happen to see it in operation! Truly a fantastic experience. Hard as hell, but extremely rewarding!

After 3.5 years of practice and 132 clears, I was finally able to beat the TLB on his 14th appearance!

Nice work, that's really impressive. I was having trouble just keeping track of the ship.

Thanks! That means a lot to me. Wish a lot more people were playing this game.

a lot more people would be playing the game if the barrier to entry wasn't thousands of $$$ ...

IIRC
- 1.0 had 5 frames of input lag
- 1.1 brought that down to 3
- 1.2.0 brought that down to 2 <- this is where I started getting a lot more consistent with the game
- 1.2.1 brought that even further down to 1 with JVS' (you need a JVS'-compatible IO to reap the benefits, so either the official exA IO or a IONA board) and (supposedly) fixes an infamous bug that caused scores to reset on power down
- 1.2.2 only changes the startup screen to reflect the change of management ownership (from Tanoshimasu to exA)

Is there anyone still playing AKA&BLUE TYPE-R?
The other day I did a 5-hour live YouTube broadcast from an arcade.
I encountered the true boss four times, and he was tough.
I'll keep playing to get a consistent no-mistake clear.
