I'm the anon from the previous thread asking for tips on beating Memory. I downloaded the game again yesterday and got the 1cc this morning. Just had to keep trying until I got the lucky run, she imploded fast.Anyway, a new TSS thread.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i9Dan0cH5WII recorded it too, mostly just to test out recording with OBS. Don't expect anything fancy. The ending got messed up when I tabbed out to check if it was recording, so the part where Ran is caught by Memory got cut out.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=71FEIiI9pX4I also found this video, it should be useful.
>>12634620https://youtu.be/-DAkn-5WB-IThis one too.

https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/neo/565709-twinkle-star-sprites/faqs/56584This old guide seems really good too.
>last thread was 404'dSilly me, how could I for a moment think that you can discuss an arcade game in a retro game board?Anyways, good job anon. It's indeed quite possible to end up speedkilling Memory, but you need some good RNG there. Now try level 8, it makes the CPU more tough starting from stage 5. Or go straight into playing with people if you are bored of CPUs igHave a Dark Ran.
>>12635663Wtf that's the Gunsmith Cats artist.
>>12634558Good job anon!For extra resources, you also have the wiki https://mizuumi.wiki/w/Twinkle_Star_SpritesHope to fight you eventually!
>>12634589Congrats!! Man... It looked so easy in the beginning but it got pretty intense after stage 6. Thanks for sharing, I had never heard of this game
Since recent beetle-saturn improvements, I've been playing a lot of TSS sat. version with 2 frames of runahead. Took a while to get used to less slowdown, but I think I like it more than the MVS ver now
>>12635695Wish saturn version didn't fuck up the audio, but otherwise it's fine ig.Check out the additional disk too, you should find those artworks and some recorded voice lines.
>>12635698sfx is lower quality compared to neogeo but bgm is cd quality, which is what mattersdoesn't loop thoughI checked the omake disk long ago, I liked the drawing contest they held
>>12635703>sfx is lower quality compared to neogeo but bgm is cd quality, which is what mattersif you want both, there's the neogeo cd version!
>>12635718yes, but think of all the cool bells and whistles there are in saturn version
>absolutely wreck your friends>get mauled to death by autists on FightcadeZero fun in both cases :(
>>12635890You can only go up, so time to learn how the game works.Or play with random anons who are willing to use fightcade here, idk.
>>12635897I know how the game work, I can beat solo mode with a couple of credits.But I'm too skilled for my friends and internet strangers are too skilled for me.And I'm not autistic so I won't spend hours getting better at a game with cute little girls.It's quite frustrating.
>>12635910>And I'm not autistic so I won't spend hours getting better at a game with cute little girls.That's the only proper way to spend your time.What else are you going to do, getting better at games with burly men?
>>12635910>But I'm too skilled for my friends and internet strangers are too skilled for me.I don't understand this argument for TSS, the survival time isn't so much lower when you play against stronger players unless you give them lots of green fireballs; if you enjoy dodging and shooting the game is still lots of fun even when losing
>>12635916I'm going to do something else than playing video games, silly.
>>12635910games with cute little girls are the most skill demanding
>>12635676>>12635692>>12635663Thanks! That wiki looks nice, it will come in handy when I play next. I guess a good next step is practicing all the formations until I can get perfects consistently and trying out playing on fightcade.>>12635663>Have a Dark Ran.Very nice art. Do you know where it's from? The 35 page number makes me think it's from some manual/guide, or maybe an art book.https://shmuplations.com/twinklestarsprites/Good interview with the developers.

>>12636489Awesome, thanks anon. Lots of good art in there.
Play Twinkle Star Sprites
Is she Load Ran or Load Run
>>12634558She is hhoott in this one
>>12638012 The original name is ロードラン, spelled literally Roodoran. It's a werid name because it's actually more of a compound word split in two loan words."roodo" can refer to multiple english words, such as "load", "road" or "lord"."ran" on its own seems to only mean "run"My best guess is that it's supposed to be a contracted form of "Roadrunner".
>>12638025I think they were making a wordplay on common programming terms like sprites, load, run and whatever
>>12638026Yeah could also be "Load Run" if it's a wordplay with that.
>>12638012Road Run
'member when a westoid tried to make a TSS style versus stg and filled it with DEI?
>>12638054No I don't. But that's good, it probably means nobody bought their shit.
Guess I will randomly throw runs until I get a rank 1/level 8 clear. So far I already got no miss/level 8 multiple times, even without the cheap characters.
>>12635663It's not just you, I beg for people to talk about this game everyday
>>12638216Fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck 2 seconds off
>>12638950Still impressive, nice work. Keep at it and you'll get it soon enough I'm sure.
Shame, that was an amazing run.20 seconds to kill Dark Ran, 26 seconds Mevious, and 1min Memory.
>>12638954That was my best attempt so far. But I will certainly play more and try.
>>12638962What the fuck is a swimming umms
