WTF?!

Can someone help me out please lol.

Every time I get to the "!" In level three the damn jet bike flies of the platform?!?!! Even if I do make it to the first platform with no ramp it never lands on the next platform!

I've tried not touching the D-pad on that first ramp, moving up and down while in the air off the first ramp, I can't tell a difference it never lands on the next platform!

I made it once to the first platform without a ramp but I have no idea how.

Yeah,that part is annoying. I can't say a whole lot since I've only passed it twice,but you just need to get into a rhythm. One thing that sucks is the hit collison and the graphics don't sync up.

Thanks guts, does it have something to do with holding the a button down?

I noticed that makes the jet bike stay in flight longer. It will go completely out of the screen sometimes.

Honestly,I don't press any buttons on that stage except to jump barriers and of course the part you are talking about. Otherwise it's D-pad only. That "!" stretch is the toughest part of that stage for me right now as I can cruise up until that point. I should hopefully be able to get past stage 3 tonight and maybe segue that into a great run.

It's tough but you want to press jump at the end of the platform after you land. It seems counter intuitive but you want to wait a split second after you land before jumping instead of jumping the moment you land.

i spent 3 days tryin to break the twin galaxies world record on this game for mame
at about 3am around 6 years ago i finally did it (after ignoring my missus from around 8pm) , i beat the world record by about 200k points, i was so releived and so happy.....i went to bed feeling all accomplished

the next day i woke up excited about submitting my score, i open tg website, search the battletoads scores.....sand see the day before a score of about 8 million points more than me was accepted :'(

that was the end of BT for me

the "!" jumps are actually pretty easy, once you know what to do. stay near the bottom of the screen where the platforms are wider, and just press "jump" as you get near the the edge of each platform. Don't need to press any directional buttons. (I've seen people try to steer in midair but that honestly will not help if you timed your jump correctly)

Arnpoly where you at brotha??? Don't be a last minute score poster! I need a status update!

I'm rusty as shit. I thought I would've beaten the game by last night and would've been trimming down my score by now.

Awesome job Arnpoly! I doubt I have any chance to beat the game this week without a max score... But I'm gonna give it my best shot anyway!

Colour me very impressed.
I had never seen anyone hit level 12 without a max score unless they were using warps.

Right before the end of Level 3, which I BEAT tonight for the first time in my life!!!  On my last life I made it all the way through and, wow, let me just say, it felt really f*cking good to take this one off of my bucket list.



I know it doesn't count towards the Hi Score competition, but what the hell!  Here's a shot of me standing on the sweet, sweet ice of Level 4 for the first time in my life!!
