Gradeus Tip

This might be old, but on Gradeus, and songs like it (delirium, etc.) it helps to drag the window so you see the top half of the screen. This improves your accuracy much, as you play what's there when it comes. My rank in Gradeus boosted much from this. I'm going off to try this on Delirium.

RE: Gradeus Tip

how'd you not know that stlunatic? Basically everyone on top10 board's play like that, because it makes it like c600 if you cut it in half, then faster and faster as you cut it more.

I first did this on Silence ages ago, and people were so amazed. But yeah, pretty much everyone knows now.

How do you do this exactly? I tried shrinking the window when trying to shrink the browser but all it did is shrink the app and that's it.

You don't use the the minimize button to do it, you drag the window borders around to shrink the window. You adjust it as you'd like.

Basically shrink your browser to a square or something, until the FFR screen is split in half vertically. The way you want it depends on you and how fast you can read arrows. The smaller the screen, the faster the arrows come up for you, and the more reaction time you need. Heres an example of what i use sometimes:

I play reverse so I just scrolled down on the page. My scores went up... a lot =D

Something else that helps for me is to turn the volume off. It works better if you already know the song, but yeah. Helped me.

Definitely agree. I know the songs so well I just hear them in my head the whole time if I turn the volume off, and I can focus more on hitting the keys at the right time and making beats with the keys.
