[STG] - Soldier Force (ソルジャーフォース) Western Record (07/12/2020)

Character: Caesar
Final Score: 12,443,700
Trap Zone On
Autofire Off
No Star Brain Timeouts
I played with all defaults for this run to remain fair to the previous Western Record which used all defaults as well. I managed to barely inch past with a 117K point lead only because I knew more secrets than the previous record and they honestly should have had me beat if they knew about the Cleopatra. This means there is definitely improvement wiggle room to be had here, but I have gone HAM on this game for a week and I'm pretty content with what I have here for now.
This is the first video showing off some Golden Finger gameplay with no cheats and the Cleopatra uncovering at stage 16 after checkpoint, so this can serve as a learning experience for anyone that is interested in diving deeper into this game.

Trap Zone mechanics are very weird to be honest. BTW Emuser, I think you misspelled "Soldier Force" as "Solder" Force.

Lol I did misspell it, thank you for pointing it out. Yea I'm not a fan of Trap Zone, as you could probably tell I accidentally re-entered trap zones when I didn't want to. I did it so I played on the same settings as the Team Shmup'em-All's channel's run by Elodiebo. It is a default so I played the same, even though I personally think the Trap Zone mechanic is poorly crafted and doesn't really translate into something fun nowadays. Studio Siesta went a LITTLE too hard with their Star Soldier tribute bringing it back.

Where the hell did you find this game??

Nowadays the only place you’ll find it is in the games section on DoujinStyle pretty much.
