I absolutely love this already! The music is solid and the bomb mechanic you mentioned is very interesting! There are some fantastic boss and enemy designs plus the stages look great. It’s always a joy hearing your talks! Thanks for putting this together and congratulations on the clear.
Thanks, it is a nice and approachable game. Not as crazy a Batrider or Garegga, but to me that is not always a negative. Normal Course difficulty is rather easy as you can see, but even the Advanced Course feels like it should be doable with some practice.
Thank you Miquel, much appreciated! I think it will take some work but at least I can look at your runs if I need some help. :) It's a great game, I think more people should play it.
Great commentary as usual! Normal looks very approachable and fun. It doesn’t appear to have the high level of rank shenanigans common in Yagawa’s other games. Having said that, maybe it appears in the advance mode you mentioned. The Shmups Wiki entry for Battle Bakraid mentions some weird rank issues with the original PCB. I would love to hear your thoughts on the advance mode if you decide to take it further with this game. It’s not a Raizing game, but I think you would enjoy Batsugun as well.
Hey thanks! Batsugun is definitely a game I'm keeping an eye on, hoping for a re-release by M2 or Bitwave at some point. Battle Bakraid Advance feels like rank is more prevalent and I saw a few runs where players were suiciding to keep it manageable. I will definitely need to research the systems more if I want to go for the clear.
Nice clear! You made a great point about the bullet visibility: A shmup could look totally gorgeous, but if I can’t see where the bullets are coming from, it ruins the experience of the game.
high level scoring in this game is WILD. icarus has a great "special demonstration" video of a scoring run that shows off all the crazy techniques. it turns into an extend-em-up at that level lol
GG pour le 1CC, je savais pas qu'il y avait un mode si accessible sur Battle Bakraid, ça donne envie! Cool que le rank soit pas aussi relou que sur Battle Garegga. C'est dommage que tu fasses pas de vidéos en Français, la commu aurait bien besoin d'une chaine comme la tienne ;), c'est parce que tu voulais t'adresser à un public plus large en Anglais?
Oui c'est quasiment un mode easy, il est vraiment sympa et accessible ! Pour la langue, à la base les premières personnes avec qui j'ai pu échanger quand j'ai commencé à jouer étaient quasiment toutes anglophones comme Dace ou Aktane donc je ne me suis pas vraiment posé la question...
@@letsblocking Je le rajoute sur la liste des jeux à faire cette année ! Aah je comprends mieux! Oui Aktane est Dace sont tellement sympa, c'est sur c'est pas la même ambiance avec certains de la commu française un peu plus élitiste on va dire ;)
@@VinuShmup Tu as tout compris :) De l'extérieur et en tant que débutant, la commu FR semble moins inclusive que la commu internationale mais ce n'était vraiment pas une décision réfléchie a la base. J'ai beaucoup de mal avec l'élitisme, le plus important c'est d'aimer les jeux et de vouloir partager sa passion avec d'autres personnes. On retrouve souvent la même chose dans les jeux de combat et c'est vraiment dommage...

Thanks Dace, yeah it's a solid game! I hope it gets a good port at some point.
Looks like a really interesting game, and your commentary definitely helped with setting the context. Congratulations on the run!

Great video and commentary! I really enjoyed watching it :-) Congrats on the clear, I think Advance Mode shouldn't be a problem to you

Thanks for watching! Yeah it is a pet peeve of mine in some games, I love great visuals of course but to me that always comes second to gameplay.

Thanks, I'll check it out! I've seen some crazy suicide strats but I'm not exactly sure how they work.
