Batrider Advanced Course – Strawman – 5,082,690

Week #2 of the Shumps 2k6 tournament! I’ve always liked the atmosphere of Batrider. I never played it much despite owning the PCB and when I did it felt..messy to me. Lots of stuff flying around that kept me from concentrating on what I needed to. I dunno if I’m just warming up to Raizing games more or if the week of concentration helped, but that sense of being overwhelmed completely disappeared. I’d eventually like to go for an ALL in Advanced Course; not sure when I’ll get around to that.

I still would like to see a near world-record replay of this game.

Batrider Normal Course – Strawman – 4,555,880

I played a game of Batrider normal course towards the end of the shmups competition for a bit of distraction. Ended up getting an ALL the first time (a week straight of Advanced Course makes Normal course a bit easy..) Figured I’d put the video up. Maybe I’ll try to improve on this later; it’s a nice distraction from other things.
