This took a lot of work to optimize, but the results are impressive. The last frame can be earned by changing the distance between you and the target, which isn't always easy. You can fire a shot every other frame, so in general the best case is to fire every six frames. Thus, only one of those shots actually hurts the enemy. Furthermore, all enemies have an invincibility timeout of five frames. Holding down B gives you a constant stream, but looking more closely, you can only have two shots active at a time. The big technique improvement over my previous attempt is accurate shooting. In particular, he found a way to enter the password faster and also beat the first boss faster. However, I collaborated with him and incorporated any strategies he found to make different areas faster. If you've played this game you know that the robot is a little slow and clunky, but I move along quite quickly and even do a little dance in celebration.Ĭheez attempted a run of this game as well, but wasn't able to beat my previous time. Along the way, I take advantage of quite a few opportunities to showboat. This, in addition to showing off a bit more should definitely add to the entertainment value.Īs before, I put in a password to access expert mode, then shoot my way through this very difficult game as fast as possible. Qualitatively, I agreed with the feedback that being a fireball constantly wasn't quite as neat as I thought it would be, so I stay in robot form for most of this run. It took a bit more work than I thought, but I've managed to improve my previous attempt by seven seconds. I encourage every NES owner to pick up a copy of this classic.Finally, the ultimate Metal Storm run. The only negative aspect of this game is the difficulty, but still, it doesn't stop the game from being highly enjoyable. But you'll have a great time each time you switch the system on.Ĭontrols are solid. I have yet to beat the 4th stage and, still, I have a blast each and every time I put this cartridge into the system. The difficulty is of epic Ninja Gaiden proportions. If you're just a casual gamer that doesn't finish most games (like myself) the 5th level and beyond may be out of your range. Gravity switching becomes a huge gameplay element towards the middle section of the game. In Metal Storm, you are in control of the gravity. Metal Storm is like a traditional shooter a la Contra but adds it's own unique twist to the formula.
Metal Storm is a classic NES game from irem.
