I never made it that far, but they look like a pain in the ass. Shredder even has an insta-kill move. It's been a while since I've played this, but I think there's a way to basically trap them both without getting hit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PII | 2,035 Posted May 14, 2022 Share Posted May 14, 2022 (edited) Well, I can officially say that I've One-Deathed it... ...Also, correction to my previous post on the topic: You can pause during the shredder fight. However pause did not work after beating him and you do not get a score display anywhere in the aftermath. Possible rule change? Game ends when you knock the real Shredder's helmet off........?

mbd39 | 2,095 Posted May 14, 2022 Share Posted May 14, 2022 (edited) I got the scene 5 boss flashing last night but couldn't quite beat him. Hopefully I can reach scene 6 today. EDIT: Finally reached scene 6 but only made it to the tigers. Edited May 14, 2022 by mbd39 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will also accept this. Taking the picture when you kill Shredder is preferable, but this is acceptable. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll take a zero score scene six for now, if that works. Yeah, it's too bad farming the motorcycle guy isn't allowed but the Baxter fight is, as it takes forever to farm at Baxter. I actually tried to calculate what I needed to max the score at exactly 999 on the Shredder fight, and it took me so freaking long, then two problems arose after all that work: I died long before Shredder (on the Samarai at the end of Scene 6) and worst of all, when I played out my game, I ended up with 1002 points at Shredder, meaning that 999 is not the max, so you could literally farm forever and not hit a max score. So if I do any more runs this weekend, I'm going to tone down my farming just for the sake of my own sanity... EDIT: I also can't even get Krang flashing in one life, never mind kill him, so if I can make it to Krang on one life, that will be my final score.

For now, your progress counts towards the scoreboard. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamesRobot | 6,027 Events Team · Posted May 15, 2022 Share Posted May 15, 2022 I might get one more run. My game always falls apart at the tigers though. The tigers, scorpions, and the samurai all give me issues. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It sucks that you don't get the pizza at the boss. I hate that runs take so long too. It's exhausting. Edited May 15, 2022 by mbd39 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It sucks that you don't get the pizza at the boss. I actually like that last pizza placement in the Technodrome because I'm usually running on fumes by the time I get it, then the rest of the level between the pizza and that boss before Krang is pretty short and easy. I actually find that boss to be one of the easiest in the game. 9 minutes ago, mbd39 said: I hate that runs take so long too. It's exhausting. This is what bugs me the most; once you add in point-scumming at Baxter, my runs must be well over an hour and a half (though I haven't actually timed them). I'm only going to have time to do one or two more runs this weekend, and the Samurai boss has had my number the last four runs in a row. His floating head keeps getting in the damn way...

BeaIank | 1,682 Events Team · Posted May 15, 2022 Author Share Posted May 15, 2022 Yeah, I have this issue with how long this game takes as well. I guess next time we play it, we will go with stage select to start at the Technodrome and make it a speed run to see who beats it faster. Sounds more fun for the weekly contest this way. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At this point, I let them run to the other side of the screen and set up to rinse and repeat. I almost never get hit with this strategy. 6 minutes ago, BeaIank said: Yeah, I have this issue with how long this game takes as well.

Yeah, it's a great game, but even the speed runs on youtube are almost 40 minutes. Maybe a speed run of the last couple Scenes would work well...

Yeah, the plan is to have a speed run of the last stage only. I will consider that for TMNT 3 too in the future, to allow for shorter run times, allowing for more runs and practise to take place. It will be more fun for everyone involved. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mbd39 | 2,095 Posted May 15, 2022 Share Posted May 15, 2022 (edited) Sometimes I can lock the scene 5 boss into a good pattern of jump kicks and sometimes he keeps kicking my ass. This time I just barely squeaked by him with one health left, it was a miracle. Edited May 15, 2022 by mbd39 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mbd39 | 2,095 Posted May 15, 2022 Share Posted May 15, 2022 And died to the tigers again, lol. I'm gonna try Morbis's strategy next time. It's those unpredictable high jumps that keep getting me. I can't figure out how to beat the samurai in one life either. He's just mean. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stage 1 speed run could be fun too. Might also be more accessible than a final stage speed run. Although I would suggest with a speed run that it's not 1 life. Dying costs time, so there's incentive to not die from that, so there's no reason to kill a run because of a death. But yeah, I feel like this is a pretty good candidate for a future speed run.
