A 1cc of the first loop of DonPachi. It's the second oldest bullet hell out there and the first game by CAVE, released in 1995; the first one of its kind being Batsugun by Toaplan. :P Though DoDonPachi (1997), the more well-known successor of DonPachi, was the game that actually popularised the concept of bullet hell.
This was one of the most ragequit inducing games to clear. I've gotten annoyed by Stage 4 and its enemies that fly into you countless times... even when using the laser to prevent such a death from happening. I wouldn't last out attempting a 1cc for too long. Luckily it went well this time (the first run of today even!), and with 2/7 at the start of Stage 5, I played it super safe to make sure I would 1cc and not have to go through the BS that is Stage 4 again, so I bombspammed my way through. I had to dodge the Stage 5 boss's final pattern; luckily that went well! It'd have been painful to die there. The run had two short lag spikes during the recording, btw... and a few useless bombs. xD I was a bit too afraid of dying.
I might try to get somewhere in the second loop in the future, but that'll be something for once I am able to take risks on my runs (and finish with more resources) and not play it safe to guarantee a 1cc. I have things like UFO Lunatic and Ketsui to do first, however. c:
