The "what Cave game(s) are you playing right now?" thread

[NR777]

Been playing EspRa.De and DDP.

[electricgrave]

Lots of DS and Ibara.

[Lunchbox]

Finally I took my balls and started to play DOJ (PS2).
Damn, that game is hard!

[RagingAvatar]

I started playing Ketsui: DL (DS) to get my fingers moving at pace in preparation for Mushi Futari 1.5 which arrived today

(This is my first post..) I'm new to Cave games in general and am finding them to be very fun and rewarding (I bought Donpachi for PSX the other day too - and found that to be excellent) though I really am terrible at them so far!

Futari Ltd edition with phone card really hurt my wallet at ?100. Ouch.

[evil_ash_xero]

Currently playing: Espgaluda 2. It's like a game from heaven. 

It certainly looks it, from the vids. I'm expecting an epic.

Anyway, i'm playing

Do DonPachi DOJ- Got to the last big cannon before the stage 4 boss. I was mighty impressed with myself.
Futari- but isn't everyone?
ESPGaluda- when DOJ pisses me off too much, I play this.

DonPachi on Sega Saturn
DoDonPachi on Sega Saturn
DDP DOJ Black Label on XBOX 360
Mushihimesama Futari on XBOX 360

[Geeb]

it's mostly been the occasional credit of DDP for me, recently

[Square King]

Lots of Dangun Feveron and Progear lately for me on MAME and Mushi 1.5 pretty much daily on Xbox.

[JEP]

Espgaluda

I'm pretty new to STGs.  Trying to get my first 1cc.  Currently can get to the stage 4 boss.

[spl]

New shmup fan here - just starting with Dodonpachi but also play a few games of Mushihimesama on PS2.

Hopefully I can get a J360 soon.

[ageha]

currently Mushihimesama futari on the 360
I am in love with the arrange mode

and as soon as I got an old TV back I will play ibara and galuda again on ps2

[neofrank]

Mushi Futari on the 360, and waiting with bated breath for Galuda 2 .... I LOVE the first one, and am looking to get my but kicked by the second.

[Monouchi]

Futari BL Maniac 360.

And im finally progressing in the world of CAVE shooters.
I just discovered the tap-shooting, love that in stage 2.

Also now manages to get to stage 5 without dying...and only use one bomb, stage 3 Boss second pattern... 

[Cell]

Ibara PCB in my Astro.

[HVL]

I guess I'll spend some time with Deathsmiles until Espgaluda 2 Black Label comes. I just did my first run of the year, missed most of the recharges but still ended up with 186 million.

[cstarflare]

Espgaluda Arrange to get ready for Black Label. Hit 140mil last night; all the time spent with Futari seems to have improved my skills since the last time I played I was barely breaking 100mil.

This player found some nice hiding areas for the DDP DFK BL TLB: http://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm9842956

[Shalashaska]

Think you meant to post that in the video thread?

Been playing a lot of DoDonPachi lately. I introduced two guys I work with to a few shooters (they've never played any) and they took a really strong liking to DDP. They're even having a score competition between the two of them and one guy can already chain stage 1 up to the mid-boss after only maybe 3hrs of off and on play!

[ageha]

If anything goes according to plan I will be playing espgaluda II BL (360) later this day

I am so hyped!

[lmagus]

DOJBLEX

Although I can't stand the Now loading screens.

I'll give Espgaluda 2 another try one of these days

[HVL]

MFBL Maniac and Galuda 2 Arrange.

[Monouchi]

Ketsui X mode.      ...its really good.

[lmagus]

Deathsmiles and MBL

I'm loving it so much!

[cstarflare]

Dangun Feveron

I've tried to get into this game on four separate occasions and I think I finally kind of get it

[emphatic]

Switched to Type-B in Ketsui (Arcade) and loving it.

[brentsg]

Dangun Feveron

I've tried to get into this game on four separate occasions and I think I finally kind of get it

I want to try this, but I don't know anyone with the PCB and I can't get it to work in MAME.

[zlk]

I am also playing dangun feveron.  I am trying to get a clear on the game with no TLB.  So far I can get into stage 5 but there are many places I am not sure how to best attack and I rely too much on pure luck.  I am using the b-roll-speed 2 ship and am having fun so far.

[lmagus]

Back to Futari BL after a while.

DS2 arrives yesterday but I wasn't in the mood for it after a whole playthrough

[HVL]

DS2 ver 4.00 and Espgaluda II Arrange.

[gsl]

Working up to a clear in Futari 1.5 Original before Deathsmiles hits and I sink all my time into that.   I've gotten to stage 4 a few times.

Futari BL Original plays a lot easier after staring at 1.5 for a few credits, though.
