CAVE 8/2009 (PCB) ~ 5/2010 (X360)This is the
Deathsmiles II Ver 4.0 high score thread. You can submit scores from the PCB or the Xbox 360 port's ARCADE MODE.
Rules: no continues, and default live stock, difficulty, and extends. Submit in the order shown in the table. The PCB has separate rankings for each character (as does Arcadia Magazine), so I've split them here as well.
Key for all tables:
SCORE - NAME - STAGE (L=X/5, BxX for ALL scores) - Character- Version (PCB/X360 (Indicate patched or unpatched for X360 scores) L=X/5 for ALL scores indicates how many life containers you finished the game with (for example, if you finish the game with 2 full life containers, list it as
L=2/5, if you finish with 3.5 life containers, list it as L=3.5/5)

Score done at A-Cho arcade, Kyoto. No pic, but it's saved on the in-game high score chart. Feel free to visit the machine and verify if the mood should strike you.
Hi score chart is open for business! Arcade mode only. Someone else can open an X-Mode/Arrange thread if they like.

Good scores.
Bleh, I still can't chain recharges at all. :whyioughtta:

Nice start. The recharge chaining takes some time to get the hang of. You'll get there. :righton:
Pfft, still no clear. Satan Claws is surprisingly tough, I've been spoiled by Jitterbug's 2-UP cake. :laugh:

I'm just starting to use the lockshot, but it feels weird... can't quite get the hang of it.
Are there any life cakes in this mode? I've had a bomb appear once playing the Ruins as the 4th stage - not sure how to trigger it though.
That's a pretty good score for not using the Lock-shot much! You can get a life cake in stages 3 and 4 if you select the snake stage as 3, and the haunted house as 4. You have to kill a certain enemy with the lock shot to get it to appear (in stage 3 it's the last big snake that comes from the bottom of the screen, in stage 4 it's a large torso-less knight enemy in the middle of the stage that appears on the left of the screen just before the bookshelves section).
Got the ALL finally. :righton:

Thanks for the info EOJ - I'll enjoy my (very brief) moment in the sun with this one. ;)
Good scores! Nice job on the #1 Lei score, durango. I don't think I'll play much until the patch comes out.
LEI

No pic, as it's currently #3 on the online leaderboards for Lei and you can see the score there.

Not sure if I've got the life/bomb count right... Anyhow, I haven't got the patch yet - don't know if that will make a difference or not. I think I should be able to scrape 1bil as my playing is so scrappy on the first couple of levels. Sperm bullets still giving me trouble... Happy with the score though.
Nice score, durango76. Here's my latest with the patched version:
LEI
830,211,757 - EOJ - ALL [L=2/5, Bx0] - X360 (Patched Ver)
Score is on the online leaderboards (#3 in the Lei rankings).
Starting to get the hang of Supe. Pretty fun!

LEI

Currently #2 in the online Lei rankings.
Just had a run w/ Lei where I cleared it with 923mil. Screen went black and froze after I pressed start to skip the ending. No final score, but it would have been 950+mil with the end bonus. Goddamn glitchy piece of crap. I was playing off the disc, rather than the hdd, too.
Maybe this only happens in Score attack mode? I'll try playing regular off-line mode from now on.
You're well on your way to billion. :righton:
I tried playing with Lei, digging his play style although I haven't figured out all the tricks yet.

This one's not on the online leaderboards. I think I'm through with playing the glitchy online score attack (at least with Lei).
I had a run before this that had 50mil more before the start of the last stage, so 1+bil is definitely within my reach.
Great score.
I managed to improve my score quite a bit. Man, the leaderboards are quite barren, I got into top 10 on the Lei scoreboard. :laugh:

I just can't decide if download the patch...
Once installed, it could be deleted?
Here's my last score before I installed the patch - I was hoping to break 1 bil... but that's not happening.

936,985,045 - durango76 - ALL - (L=1 B=2?) - X360
With the patch installed I'm 14th on the leaderboard with 880,979,855
The games does slightly faster in a few places, but it's not too bad. Anyhow, 2 weeks to learn 360 mode...
Edit: My previous scores I added with my name DAN by mistake - oops, sorry.
Nice! Looking forward to your X360 mode scores.

I certainly don't mind. In fact I'm quite thankful. Feel free to do this whenever you like. :righton:

I'm reasonably happy with that score for now, so time to try Windia and Supe... does anyone have scoring tips with them? I'm having a much harder time scoring with them and I'm not sure why (the early stages in particular are awful).
I am consistently getting to Satan Claws on every run, but I can't beat the fecker! :-[ Any tips? :-*
337million is my top score right now.
Ah, the dreaded SATAN CLAWS (love that name). :laugh: Have you done some youtubing to check out good strategies? I'd help you myself but I haven't played the game in about 8-9 years so I don't remember much.
337mil ain't too shabby! IIRC there's a generous end bonus, so if you clear it, it should put you over 400mil.
Almost had him this evening! :lol:
Looks like you need to be in powerup mode to do any real damage!
Bomb spam and recharge with your familiars. I love this game!
Got it! ^-^ version 4.00 PCB:
All clear - 385 million with Lei. I can do better...
Nice job! Post a full score next time and we'll put you on the leaderboards. :righton:
My bad =D
improved since then :righton:

Hi guys,
My new PB: 431,489,080 - ALL [L=3/5, Bx0] - Casper - PCB
(https://i.postimg.cc/nckwgC49/D.jpg)
I just improved my score with 50 million! I really love this game, have been playing on and off for short periods since around 2014-2015 and I never get tired of it. The difficulty compared to other Cave games is perfect for me and makes me return. I believe my top score with how I'm playing would be around 500-550 million if I make a perfect run.
484,778,623 - ALL [L=3/5, Bx2] - Casper - PCB (not 100% sure about life and bombs this playthrough)
I'll start updating at Individual style until I feel I've maxed out and come back here with new score :) BTW if anyone would like to share the 2.00 version I'd be really happy.
(https://i.postimg.cc/7PjWg60B/D.jpg)
Nice job, looking forward to more scores. :righton:
Thank you :) I think I found all the secret items in DSIIX but not in the arcade version. How many cakes are there? I've only found two small cakes first in Field C second snake and Field D the second night before the hands. But there's supposed to be a medium and big cake(s) as well? And also a "summoning spell book" which is an extra bomb?
I don't remember the details, but maybe it's in this thread:
