[Zayon]

Can anyone explain clearly what this item actually does? Thanks!

 

[Gemant]

what is event item?

 

[Zayon]

It's the thing with wings that flies around on the screen.

 

[Gemant]

AHHHH!! the rate up angel!

rate up angel appear for increase your score, when angel appear, if you take it, your score increase X 2 (yellow rate up angel) for some seconds....

when rate up finish and fly out the screen, your score returns normal

if you not take it, succesfully a new rate up appear with different color.

rate up angels are 10 (for each, the colour is different):

x 2
x 4
x 8
x 16
x 24
x 32
x 48
x 64
x 80
x 128

rate up appear after you take 2 bonus jewel item, after this, if you destroy 1 enemy, rate up angel appear

 

[Zayon]

Ok, thanks for letting me know it's been driving me crazy I haven't been able to figure it out myself nor did I find anything on the internet about it.

 

[Electroman]

Thanks Gemant also... for I didn't know what this was either.

 

[Kiken]

The 128x multiplier is the Yume-chan (the large winged bonus with the kanji "Yume" [dream] in the center). It also has the effect of turning all destroyed enemies into power-ups (a 300 pt bonus per power-up).

 

[Gemant]

mmmh not. Yume chan is not x 128, but is a special rate for power up bonus only.


with Yume chan you can obtain power up only if you defeat all enemies

 

[SNKJorge]

Ah good all Gemant, always with a great answer.
You're pretty much a walking neogeo gameplay library.

I didn't understand at first what the starter of the thread said...

On a side note, Gemant, what is the world record for
Blazing Star? was it in Gamest at all? or NeoGeo Freak Mag?

mmmh not. Yume chan is not x 128, but is a special rate for power up bonus only.


with Yume chan you can obtain power up only if you defeat all enemies

Hmmmm... I was under the impression that was it... but I guess not. Which colour is the 128x?

Colours I can remember off the top of my head are:
yellow, orange, red, purple, brown

I love it how NOBODY ever wants to use the Peplos for high-scores.

 

[BBH]

I love it how NOBODY ever wants to use the Peplos for high-scores.

from what I heard there's some bug regarding the Peplos that makes it banned for high scoring purposes. Or something. Somebody was telling me about that, but I forget the specifics... maybe Gemant knows

 

[Gemant]

for rate up angel, the colours are:

yellow (x 2)
orange (x 4)
orange dark (x 8)
red (x 12)
Pink (x 24)
Fuchsia (x 32)
Light blue (x 48)
blue (x 64)
Green (x 80)
all colours (exclude green) (x 128)

Yume chan appear ONLY after when you take a normal rate up bonus, for this, the value is x 2.

Peoples is banned from gamest score for Bug, possible discontinuation score.

 

[Kiken]

Peoples is banned from gamest score for Bug, possible discontinuation score.

Ah, a bug, that would explain it.

But what exactly does the Peplos score bug do?

 

[Gemant]

sorry, I don't know exactly the peoples bug...
