Very interesting to see how you tackle some of the bosses. I also get the missiles for the last fly boss (stole that from another youtube video).

What was your score at the end?

Think it was around 514,000 odd, died on the first boss though as only had 2 health.

The Alien Queen just takes the piss, i lose too much health to her. I cant see an easy way to do it in the power loader so that why i left using that till the end

I just try to circle around her. Swipe a few times (with A, never B!) and sidestep up or down when she charges. Turn around and repeat.

No last-minute action. Looks as if I somehow got 3rd (and 6th!) place.

I've got about 4 games in mind. Permit me to choose the best, & I'll post the new thread today or tomorrow. After all, who knows if I'll get 3rd place again this year--got to make this a good selection...

Thanks,
-Jason
