You know how people speedrun, get a WR, then that WR is beaten in most cases weeks or even days later..... This guy is still #1 on the PC leader board for this game in 2021.
Update 2: The newest WR of all Ikaruga runs ever existed has been established by mamacchi21 with 36,648,510 being the final score ruclips.net/video/1MMaNY3mdSg/видео.html
man the ending is so emotional even though this game barely has any plot. and the writing in those screen messages is so good and also emotional. there is something beautiful in the archetype of self-sacrifice.
@@technicolormischief-maker5683 If your emotions are unwarranted to the extreme and render you a pathetic, pitiful sad sack candyass douche, then no, it is anything but childish to seek to help that person by encouraging them to put such emotions away and...grow a pair.
Crazy stuff, keeping the chain going through all the chaos is something I've been trying to improve at, and the way you've got the route you take to do it is very insightful.
Man, I've always been a fan of this kind of shooters. I came here looking for a way to beat a boss, but instead found all the op strats. Damn, how can you change polarity so smoothly? I am fast enough in other games, but this one always find ways to snipe me. I know this run is old, but it is still really awesome
Well played. The challenge of this game really irritated me once I got to stage 3 I believe it is. Watching this video, I see it's possible to do but the level of concentration and anticipation is very demanding. I get somewhat mesmerized and confused once the screen gets layered with both white and black polarity shots, resulting in my death of course.
Great shmups like this one teach something very important even to players like you and I who can't beat them without continues. They teach something very important to players of any skills.
Very nice! My proudest achievement was a one coin clear of this game, and I love how you're using Kagari! Most prefer Ikaruga but I had an easier time seeing Kagari's ship for some reason
one of the few games I regretted selling on Ebay a few years back :( I loved this game but never could get A status passed stage 3 :D The soundtrack just pumps me up!
I've just managed to clear Ikaruga on hard and scored 30m. Then I watch this video and realise that 35m is possible. Damn. GG to you, I am never going to get anywhere near your score.
This is amazing and i love it. Only thing i don't understand,maybe someone could explain, why does he destroy them in pairs? As in he delibirately shoots down only 3 whited, then 3 blacks. Why so specific?
He's chaining them 3 in a row to maximize his score. It's the "proper" way to play Ikaruga. Some would argue that its too strict and linear. It's why some people say its more like an execution heavy puzzle game. Personally I see both sides but I enjoy it.
The name of his fame is COMBOS!!!!! If he matches the colors, in this case black and white, especially in polarity, his combo points increases. It's hard, especially in a game like this and Radiant Silvergun, for I have played both a good number of times. It takes sheer concentration to do what he's doing. And with dat said, CAN DO PLEASE DO ONE FOR RADIANT? Would love to see you perform the same thing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
That's insane... I played this game a long time ago... And I was still thinking about, because I wasn't able to pass the second level. Therefore, I decided to take my "revenge" and I bought the game on steam... Damn, I'm just able to go to the boss of the level 2 for now. Therefore, I need to keep playing, and I felt like I was blocked so I was looking for some clues... Damn Sa Suisai plays so well... I'm asking myself if I would be able to finish this game... I guess I should try and give myself a challenge. Finish this game in normal mode is a really accomplishment. For real.
LOL, this game is so so crazy... I always loved shmups, but this little beast will always be on another level... I can barrely make it through on normal, but this guy, right here, and all the others before him, is/are just monsters!!!!!! ;-p And I have no words for those who make it dual play with both hands, THAT my friend, was/is pure madness!!!! :-D
Its been ported to several different consoles. It was originally released as an arcade game in japan but was eventually ported to PC, the Sega Dreamcast, the Nintendo Gamecube, the Xbox 360, and the Nintendo Switch

Perfect commentary

Somebody finally managed to get 36M on October 6th 2023, usurping this run.

The precise movements and placements, and the ability to memorize all the patterns is very impressive.
When you watch you enjoy yourself
When you play you destroy yourself
What a game
Lol! So true.
CHOOSING to kill the final boss at the last second to max out score? Insane.
This is video game poetry.
Just the amount of patience and determination it must have taken to conquer such a game... You’re truly a legend in my eyes, sir
man the ending is so emotional even though this game barely has any plot. and the writing in those screen messages is so good and also emotional. there is something beautiful in the archetype of self-sacrifice.
Grow a pair
The game actually has a plot but it doesnt talk about it. google the plot
@@jackburton2680 You grow a pair. Trying to take a person’s emotions away from them is deeply childish

Okay, and?
This is one of the most impressive video game tapestry ever crafted. This should go into the high museum of art!!!!!!!

People who think Dark Souls is a difficult game/saga clearly haven't played any truly hard game like Ikaruga.
This guy doesnt need an umbrella, he ll just evade all raindrops while not stepping in pavement lines
The police were baffled too. Apparently the person went postal upon hearing his friend utter the phrase 'Energy Max'. More news at 7.
This must have taken so many hours to master. Idk if there's a tougher challenge in all of gaming. Beautiful.
Dodonpachi!! That arcade shooter is mega, unbelievably hard as hell!!
@@virtualpellot933this is harder than DDP for chaining alone.
Man i can't even max chain the first stage! I doff my cap to you Sir, incredible watch!

This guy is the Leonardo Da Vinci of Ikaruga!
I can't even make it pass the second boss TwT
Same, I fucking suck at this game...
Amazing !!! Such a hard game .. .I salute you
oh god ._. my respect bro, you're a really PRO gamer ._. like it's all i can do
*sa suisai gameplay.
not him

Thanks for summing up a shmup game.
Choose your prize.

Coming back to this I'm still in awe of the one-person ballet that is this playthrough. Inspiring doesn't even begin to cover it.
I love how how atmospheric the game is with how the background is moving and all that.
Incredible. Congratulations.
Very nice! My proudest achievement was a one coin clear of this game, and I love how you're using Kagari! Most prefer Ikaruga but I had an easier time seeing Kagari's ship for some reason
Mate i forgot how much i needed this game. Liked and subbed ya. GaZ
thanks
Dude you're amazing, I still have my unfinished save on a dreamcast vmu
one of the few games I regretted selling on Ebay a few years back :( I loved this game but never could get A status passed stage 3 :D The soundtrack just pumps me up!
I got to 12:10 today with 6 x continues. On EASY MODE. I was pretty chuffed
Amazing platrhrough for an amazing game with an amazing soundtrack!
20:00 Practice level complete!
the first video that i found no dislike.. my gooosshhh..
8 now. They probably used up all their credits before they even get to the first boss.
Art.
So satisfying to hear “Energy Max!”
IkaruGa,, the best GaMe EveR, WorldWide,, 🌏 👌👌👌👌
Holy shit a pro I was able to get to the last boss with no deaths but you just blew everything out wow!
Holy f*** men how long you play that game?? To be like this?

Do you go outside with an umbrella when it rains or do you just dodge everything?
God himself cannot play this well.
A fucking chain counter?
Dreamcast: Hold my beer.
the level of skills here is insane
This guy is a GOD :O
Was this tool assisted ot free play?
How many calories did you burn for this?
So beautiful
It's impossible to believe.
Now this is the real story about the death of technology
That's insane... I played this game a long time ago... And I was still thinking about, because I wasn't able to pass the second level.

And I have no words for those who make it dual play with both hands, THAT my friend, was/is pure madness!!!! :-D
If this is not TAS, then you just earned the Title of Ultra Instinct!
Is not a TAS is a real gameplay bro
Awesome, wish I had gotten that good, I was only able to pull off no death in chapters 1 and during the last 2 phases of the final boss
I'd love to see the same player do this on the HD version.
This game was damn hard , that’s a crazy run
Is he human?
yes 100%
Very nice
What does the robot voice always say? "Excellence"?
I think it's saying "Energy Max" like at the bottom right
It also says 1-10 Chain and after 10 chain, it keeps saying Max Chain
Haha I've beat battletoads but this game.. I will never reach your level. I know my limit and aptitude. Hats off great playthrough.
still a amazing game
I got a C+ once. Just once. This shit is insane
you are the king of world
Some people have bullet time abilities..
What console?
Its been ported to several different consoles.
It was originally released as an arcade game in japan but was eventually ported to PC, the Sega Dreamcast, the Nintendo Gamecube, the Xbox 360, and the Nintendo Switch
@@TheFoxVampire They don't like Playstations, or maybe Playstations don't like them 😁.
@@ikarugaxx3749 It is on PS4.
My best guess is since the Time Stamp is 7 years ago and since the graphics are pretty crisp for 480p, it would be on Nintendo Gamecube.
I dont know if even deep blue or any futur AI will ever beat that score.
I can only pray I remember to watch this video after the next time I take acid. This is beautiful.
He is The One.
You Are A Fucking GOD!!!!
