This video is in TATE orientation because the current core has issues with rotation that can prevent the HDMI screen from being right-side up when playing on a CRT in the original orientation. This is a known issue and will be fixed in time. Gamma correction currently only works on analog output, and is also a known issue. When the core is updated to address these issues (and I get some more practice!) I’ll have a new video with the correct orientation.
Finally getting around to posting a Dodonpachi video. This core has been out for a while now, but I rarely get to play because I only have one CRT and it’s usually in standard/HORI orientation, so it’s somewhat of a rare treat that I get to enjoy the vertical shooters currently. I’ve had a couple sessions to try and learn the game a bit now, and this run is my current personal best- 3 credits to the 5th stage boss and a high score of 12 million, using the Type B/Shot variant ship.
I’m not a big fan of bullet hell shooters but have definitely enjoyed my time with this one, and will be returning for follow-up videos and maybe some livestreams once I have a bit more practice at it. I don’t copy/research existing runs or superplays for my videos, so a game like this could take a while to get even semi-decent at, but that just means I’ll be coming back to it for many years to learn more.
