Updated score. Fuck the 'Suborbitals' level. I had 3 lives remaining when I got there, and it drained them all. So frustrating....

The "Pachinko" level on 5-1 is even worse. Just imagine "Suborbitals" with patches of ice and bumpers all over the place. Floor 7 is just brutal in general. I've spent the last three days trying to clear it. I made it to 7-6 this last time, but I missed a target towards the end which pretty much guarantees that you'll run out of time.

 

Once I'd gotten past Suborbitals a couple of times (and improved by character control + aiming as a byproduct), by the time I got to Pachinko, I actually didn't have any problem. Of course, while I got through it on my first try, it was also the only time I've been there... and I've hung this game up for the week. Probably for the best, a game has not frustrated me like this in a long time.

Yeah, this game can get pretty frustrating after a while. I was able to get through the first five floors without too much trouble, but once I got to Floor 7, my progress basically basically came to a slow halt. I was hoping to make it to Floor 8 by the end of the contest, but I don't have enough time to give it another try.
