First 40mil clear. 4th highest known score, but it took me a very short time to pull off, so I'm definitely going to shoot for highest known score, or "WR". I'm up against 43,813,306, the highest score posted on the shmupsforum thread on Samidare and there doesn't seem to be a higher score anywhere.
Your objective when scoring this game is to use your shield to cancel bullets, turning your shot into a powerful orange shot, which lasts longer the more bullets you cancelled. Killing enemies with the shot gives you a x16 bonus (this also holds for bosses). Enemies also hold items, which will be auto-collected if they are killed at point blank range. Furthermore, bosses give time bonuses on all their patterns, so you need to speedkill them for more points, but you must also survive, since you want to no miss (NM) the whole game in order to get the NM bonus of 1 million on every stage. Making good use of your shield, while also conserving it, is key here.
My shot power at the end of Stage 1 I leave at 79 on purpose, since when you hit 80, your shot actually gets /weaker/, until it hits max, at which it's the most powerful. This can probably be improved to having max power before the boss fight. Stage 2 and 3 stage portions, especially Stage 2, are likely improvable as well. I don't think I can get much better on speedkilling the bosses, aside from the final boss green laser pattern.
