Here is an absolutely insane DD score. I wish I was this good. He burns two of his lives looping the wall section. He has the wall patterns all figured out.

I feel the glitch with the Linda in the first stage would be against the rules of this contest.

That's just point pressing which is allowed because of the timer. It's also very difficult to pull off. I couldn't do it.

I did something similar by repeatedly kicking one of the Lindas but not knocking her down until I was almost out of time.

Huh, I still feel like it’s a point racking glitch. That I’m pretty sure was disallowed. I could be wrong though. Had I known I could have done a lot better. Oh well, maybe next time.

That kinda ladder move is nice. I was kicking the Linda at the end of stage one as well. It only works until you gain the hair grab

It’s not a glitch Richie!! The invisible man is a glitch. He just punching her without knocking her over

He makes setting that up look easy. I tried to do it and I just got punched, so I didn't keep trying. I was happy point pressing with repeated kicks instead.

He does the same thing with some other enemies such as the Chin at the end of level 2.

Watch how he deals with Machine Gun Willy. I already knew about where to stand in order to not get shot, but I didn't know about repeatedly punching in order to make him shoot and then getting in a headbutt. That's a bunch of free headbutts.

If you hold a weapon such as the whip then you won't hair grab.

Thanks.

Your advice on how to get past the wall from the prior Double Dragon contest was a huge help, BTW. Using that strat you'll probably only get hit once or twice at the most. The waiting can run down the timer but it's still better than losing lives there.

Awesome, man.  Glad my strategy was able to help you out    It's definitely the best method of getting through the blocks even though it can eat up a little bit of the timer.  I used to just rush through there and hope for the best, but one day I noticed how if you wait for the topmost block to keep popping out, you can get through there with taking mininmal or no damage at all.

My score is a hair below yours from the 2014 contest. But anything over 300k is really good. I know that I left a lot of points on the table because I'm not the greatest at headbutting or dealing with multiple Chins and Aboos. I didn't loop any sections.

I still can't believe how close I came to having a game over from running out of time. I did so many headbutts on Willy, and then I was just kicking away at the final boss and then noticed that the timer was down to two seconds.

Congrats mbd on your win!

I tried a couple more times and scored right around 200K. Just can't seem to take this to the next level. And I didn't beat the game either.
