Cracked 6 mil, which was my next goal after my previous score. Proud of myself a bit.

This game is big fun. I need to get a hold of the soundtrack.

I've not spent any time with this game's spiritual predecessor, ESP Ra.De. How does that game compare to this?

It's supposed to be just as good as this, but the scoring system here is great. I played this game too much like Mushihimesama, unfortunately :lol:

It's February, time for a relatively unknown game from EllertMichael, Ryujin. This was not developed by Taito, as I originally thought. Taito published it, but East Technology developed it. They're most well-known for making Double Dragon III for Technos Japan.

*INFORMATION*
MAME romset: ryujin.zip
Description: Ryu Jin (Japan)

Other formats accepted: This is arcade only.

Autofire: None. Hold down fire button for charge shot.

Format: Name - Score - Stage - Ship

Aw man, time is up? I thought we on the west coast have til midnight. I wanted to get some runs in before bed.

If it doesn't count don't worry about it, but I wanted to post it since I worked hard for it tonight. Posted at 11:08 PM PST.

I always flip the game at midnight on the first of the month, but this was the first time I got a score after that flip, and I never thought about the people outside of Eastern time.
You've been a faithful player in this tournament and seeing as this isn't the STGT which has a far stricter time limit on this sort of thing, I'll go ahead and take that score.
