Spoiler vorsicht...
Also ich hab gestern den Boss von Chapter 5 besiegt und zum Dank, kam noch ein komisches Gebilde das mit roten und blaue Energiekugeln gleichzeitig geschoßen hat. Angreifen kann man es selber nicht, aber man muss dafür nur 80 Sekunden durch halten 1 Sekunde vor Schlus werde ich erwischt, der Timer geht noch auf 0 und GameOver ![]()
Habs heut immer noch nicht gekriegt!! ![]()
Ich auch nicht (Quasar-X) ![]()
Ich schon
und bin ziemlich begeistert, mit gedrehtem fernseher ist es wirklich genial
Obwohl mir Zero Gunner 2 bisher noch besser gefällt
hat eigentlich einer von euch die postkarten in ikaruga gehabt?
Auf gamefaqs gibts jetzt ein gutes FAQ , das das Spielsystem und alle Menüs erklärt.
Werden die Postkarten sporadisch an die Ikaruga Käufer verteilt oder
ist's eine Special Edition mit den Postkarten und anderem Schnickschnack?? ![]()
Ich habe Ikaruga 3X bestellt und ich hoffe das ich die endlich bald
bekomme!! :alt: ![]()

There are three options here:
You can VIEW RANKING, CLEAR RANKING (delete the rankings from the

CONFIG: Configuration
There are eight options here.
MONITOR TYPE: You can change from HORIZONTAL 1 (screen is 75% of normal
size), HORIZONTAL 2 (screen is 80% of normal size), VERTICAL 1 (screen
is vertical, and controller is set up normally), and VERTICAL 2 (screen
is vertical and controller is set up so the game can be played like a
side scrolling shooter).
WARNING: DO NOT turn your television vertically to play this game as
you may cause permanent damage to your television. There are

that you can adjust, but do NOT rotate your television!
SOUND: Choose between STEREO or MONO. There is (unfortunately) no
option for surround sound.
DIFFICULTY: There are four settings.
EASY, NORMAL, HARD and USER SELECT. If you have the game set at USER
SELECT, when you start the game, you choose what level you want to
play.
TRIAL GAME: If this is on, the option to play a TRIAL GAME is available
after you have selected a difficulty (if you have the difficulty set at
USER SELECT), or when you start a game. A trial game consists of the
first TWO game levels ONLY. You also have UNLIMITED LIVES in TRIAL
MODE until the second stage.
EXTEND: This sets the frequency of when the game awards extra lives.
The settings are:
TYPE 1: Extra ship every 2,000,000 points.
TYPE 2: First extra at 3,000,000 points, and then every 5,000,000
points thereafter.
TYPE 3: First extra at 6,000,000 points, and then the second extra at
15,000,000 points.
NONE: No extend.
PLAYER STOCK: This sets the amount of ships you start with. You can
choose between one to five ships.
CONTROLLER SETTING:
By default the settings are:
A BUTTON = SHOT
B BUTTON = CHANGE
R TRIGGER or C BUTTON (arcade stick/ASCII PAD FT) = RELEASE POWER
(HOMING LASER)
SHOT AND CHANGE = ON
VIBRATION = ON
DEFAULT: By pressing this, you will reset everything to the default
settings.
TUTORIAL: This opens up the very useful tutorial.
APPENDIX: This has all the hidden goodies of the game. Check out the
CODES and SECRETS section to see how to open them.
BACKUP: This screen has four options:
AUTO SAVE: By default this is OFF. Turn it ON to automatically save
any game settings, and to record the Play Time clock.
LOAD will load data, and SAVE will save current data.
Also on the BACKUP screen is the PLAY TIME clock. When this reaches
certain times, new options will open up. NOTE: This will not go up if
you are in the OPTIONS screen, or the game is in DEMO MODE, this is
allotted GAME TIME!
PAUSE SCREEN:
When the game is paused, you can continue the game, or ADJUST CONSOLE.
ADJUST CONSOLE will adjust where the score meter, energy bars and
remaining lives indicators are on the screen.

[BASIC GAMEPLAY]
The premise of Ikaruga is that your ship has two sides that can be
changed at any time. This is key to survival in the game. Let's go
over the basics:
There are two sides of your ship. A WHITE SIDE and a BLACK SIDE. By
default, you can switch sides with the "B" button on your controller.
Your WHITE side will fire a WHITE shot, and your BLACK side will fire a
BLACK shot. The default shot button is the "A" button on your
controller. If you tap the "A" button you will fire a single shot, if
you hold down the "A" button, you will get an automatic double shot.
There are two different colored enemies in the game as well, WHITE
enemies and BLACK enemies.
White enemies shoot WHITE projectiles and BLACK enemies shoot BLACK
projectiles.
Now that we have the basics under control, let's go over the way the
sides of your ship work:
In the game, if your ship in on the WHITE side, and a WHITE enemy
shoots WHITE bullets or fires a WHITE laser, your ship's WHITE shield
will absorb the shots and put it in your POWER GAUGE (the meter on the
lower left-hand side of the screen). Conversely, if your ship is on
the BLACK side, and a BLACK enemy shoots BLACK bullets or fires a BLACK
laser, your ship's BLACK shield will absorb the shots and put it in
your POWER GAUGE.
As long as there is at least one box filled in the POWER GAUGE, you can
fire a powerful HOMING LASER. The homing laser can be anywhere from
one to twelve lasers that will lock on to enemies. For every box on
the POWER GAUGE that is filled with absorbed energy, you can fire one
homing laser. Note that the gauge is universal, there is no WHITE
gauge or BLACK gauge, it's all the same gauge. However, when you fire
the homing laser (set up as either A+B buttons together OR the "R"
trigger, or the "C" button on some controllers), the side of your ship
will determine the color of your homing laser.
You will lose a life when:
A BLACK projectile hits your WHITE ship.
A WHITE projectile hits your BLACK ship.
You run into any object, including enemies.
-----
[ADVANCED GAMEPLAY]
The color of your shot is incredibly important.
BLACK SHOT + BLACK ENEMY = NORMAL DAMAGE
WHITE SHOT + WHITE ENEMY = NORMAL DAMAGE
If you fire a BLACK shot at a BLACK enemy the strength of the shot is
normal. Same with if you hit a WHITE enemy with a WHITE shot.
BLACK SHOT + WHITE ENEMY = x2 DAMAGE
WHITE SHOT + BLACK ENEMY = x2 DAMAGE
In Ikaruga, enemies are weak against their opposite colors. So, if you
fire a WHITE shot at a BLACK enemy, you will do twice the amount of
damage you would normally do. So if an enemy is WHITE, you can fire a
BLACK shot at them to do double damage.
CHAIN COMBOS:
This point award is given based on chains of enemies hit. The chain
will start when you hit three enemies in a row of the same color. In
the upper left hand corner, there is a chain display. The chain will
continue ONLY if all three colors are the same. For example, you can
hit three white enemies to start the chain, and then three black
enemies to continue the chain. You could chain three white enemies,
then another three white enemies, then three black ones to continue the
chain.
A successful chain is like this:
(B = BLACK, W=WHITE)
B, B, B, W, W, W, B, B, B, B, B, B, W, W, W, W, W, W, B, B, B, W, W, W.
In the example there is always a chain of three, three black, three
white. As long at the chain display has three of the same color, you
will get credit for the chain. The chain is broken once the string of
three is broken:
B, B, B, W, W, W, B, B, W (chain broken)
Although chains are nice for racking up lots of points, the main goal
is survival. Survival is more important than continuing a long string
of chains. Chain points aren't any good if you're dead.

So, jetzt hab ich auch endlich Ikaruga und kann nur sagen das game
ist absolut geil!
Also für alle die es interessiert hab mal grob meine Eindrücke über
das Game im Hardedge Forum zusammen gefaßt!
Ich bin der Typ der sich Gouki nennt, als hier der Link:
http://www.hardedge.de/php.BB/viewtopic.php?t=1020
Bin zu faul das ganze nochmal zu schreiben! ![]()
Manno Mann Ikaruga als schwierig zu bezeichnen ist ja die Untertreibung des Jahrhunderts. Momentan bin ich echt total demotiviert und würds gern aus dem Fenster schmeissen. :angry:
Bis einschliesslich Chapter 3 konnte ich mich ganz prima einspielen. Chapter 1 und 2 kann man sogar ohne abzukratzen überstehen, aber dann. Chapter 3 ist an manchen Stellen schon fies bleibt aber noch im großen und ganzen fair, was man ab Chapter 4 nicht mehr wirklich behaupten kann. Ich hab da jetzt grad 8 mal in Folge alle restlichen Contineus (2) verbraucht ohne auch nur annähernd den Endgegner zu Gesicht bekommen. Momentan zweifle ich daran das das durch üben besser wird.
