Same spot. I found a nice spot there where I could jump, kill both before I touch the ground, jump again causing them to respawn, kill both on the way down, jump again causing respawn, kill both.......I also got pretty good at getting them quickly at the end of 3.

5 I didn't really get much that run. I ended the level with about 50secs left. There are birds at the end, but it was hard to kill them with out taking damage after a while.


I guess we were on the same page racking wise.

Got the exact same technique for stage 4.
Level 5 was nothing fabulous. I just kept respawning the few 4-5 fishes at the start before the timer went to 90. Blue birds at the end were too much hassle to avoid, and shoot to care about.

I only managed to pull off 33,000 something on those enemies, but then I moved on to soon, probably should've chanced running out of time then instead of so late in the game like I did.



Yeah, I think I waited until the last 65 seconds to get to the end of the stage. My problem was that I couldn't find spots after that (and the ducking and killing the knife throwers over and over in stage 2 really hurt my thumbs...)

As for myself, the green swordsmen attacking from left and right were my bread. Also, the diving blue birds at the end of stage 3, and especially at beginning of stage 4.

You're talking about the swordsmen at the tree in stage 1, right? So easy to rack up points there. Wish I would have had time to play more.



Yes!
When you got the right move to respawn them while shooting them,  it quickly rewards.


Haha, yeah, I got 55,000 - 60,000 in stage 1 alone because of that.

WoW Dude! I honestly thought I was riding alone to the victory here. Huge Ass score, and I think you're at level 7, right?

What were your best racking spots?

Yeah, I forgot how long it took to do 7 and ran out of time there.

Sounds like you did the same things I was. I did find a real nice spot on 4 to get some points, also the one spot I wasted all the time in 7 was a great spot for points (swordsmen). I also planned to run the time out on the top of 9, but I never got there



Well, you still kicked my ass by 30k with 2 stages less, Congrats!

You're talking about the swordsmen at the tree in stage 1, right? So easy to rack up points there. Wish I would have had time to play more.
