My final video to close out 2020 is another Tetris video? Well yes it is, what a strange year. Anyway, this is my current best score with starting on Level 19. Much harder to post good scores without the buffer of "slow" level 18 speeds to start, so I consider this actually better than my level 18 PB.
Don't worry, we will get back to shmupping soon. Happy New Year, see you in 2021!

Super Cobra is the successor to Scramble and retains the same style of gameplay as before, except the difficulty is massively increased and you now fly a helicopter instead of a space ship. Konami isnt playing nice this time, as Super Cobra is much, much harder than Scramble.
There are way more hazards and enemies this time around and also twice as many stages as scramble. You must contend with the usual rockets firing from the ground but also gun turrets, falling stalactites, fireballs, and even UFOs that fire at you!
On top of all that you must navigate your helicopter through some pretty tight areas, which is much harder than it looks due to the massive hitbox of your ship. As a result, cheap, possibly even unavoidable deaths lurk around every corner if you get bad RNG on certain spots (the cave area in particular).
Despite my best efforts I was unable to clear the second loop although in this run I came kind of close dropping my final life in stage 2-10. Super Cobra (Arcade) 1-ALL Clear [2-10] 83,450 Pts](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/ajF0Citli8c/mqdefault.jpg)

Basically the same game as Same! Same! Same! 2 player version except quite a bit harder. I limped my way to 10 million just barely. Recovery in this version is very hard actually, since their doesnt seem to be any rank reduction on death.
