've made posts on French shmup forum (http://forum.shmup.com/viewtopic.php?p=219497#219497), and on US shmups forum (http://shmups.system11.org/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=26991&p=503409#p503409)...
(YOU should go there and talk about your work !)

You're quite welcome !

Yes it has been 1CC'd several times. I believe that Badtoad had gone through it once and got to level 6 or 7 on the second pass.
So you mean that one of the dev' 1cc'd it once...
A bit tricky indeed !  ;) (I'll try once again tonight, but I probably won't stick to it : getting on my nerves !!!)

We don't have much of a chance against apps like NitroTracker and DSOrganise IMHO. There really should have been a separate category for games.

Why don't you put it up on Neoflash compo? I think there's just a few days left before it's over.

There is now a way to get an 8,888 point bonus on most levels and a little easter egg (for a giggle)
Have you (or will you) revealed what it was about ?
Or maybe just a clue to trigger it ?
just a tiny little clue...

Gosh ! I thought of that one : Kaspal had mentioned this idea in this topic but I didn't give it a try 'cause I thought it wouldn't be possible (as the bosses doesn't go away after some time, I tought I would have to shoot anyway...)

Just gave it a try : quite funny ! (thanks for your answer !)

As there's no "official" ranking, I post my score here :
Hydeux-2 126 798-Mental
 ;D

It's still possible to improve as I think I missed the level 6 hunters bonus and as I'm quiiiite lazy in shmups (I don't bother killing "small fry" most of the time...), but I got all "total base destruct" bonuses and, of course, all level completion bonus.

So, well... Tonight I'm drinking to this great game ! (and to my last day of holydays...)  https://retrobytesportal.gameex.com/index.php?topic=237.msg2807#new

Sweet!!!

You really are the master, and well done for getting all the total base destructs, we really did not think it would be possible on all levels..

You are "Warhawk Elite"

Don't you ever say that !!! say : "Glad our great level-design make things hard but still possible !!!"  ;D
But indeed, some "total base destruct" bonuses are tricky to get : level 5, 12, 13 & 14 are quite a pain in...

Well, now, when are you releasing Warhawk II on the X-Box Live Arcade ?  ;) (mmmm... joking but it sounds like a good idea, doesn't it ?)

I guess I need these magazines, due I doesn't have plans to buying very much, I have this time ordered issue 64 to 67. There was no more back issues back...

Congratulations.

I do guess RR was meant RG (ahhh, tolate).

If MMLL ends up being as well polished as Warhawk, and I don't see why it shouldn't, then I'm 100% sure you'll be in the magazine again. ;)
...I hope I haven't jinxed it now though. :)
