Hi all! I'm an OLD Toypop player and I'm really astonished about Hisa's GREAT high score. Playing the INP file I noticed an unknown bug that makes appear the fork ( or the flower ) in almost every box. So the question is: how can I leech this feature? I play Toypop since 1987, but I never heard of any bug. So PLEEEEZE Hisa-Chan, let me know!

Thanx for reading.

Set the score of stage start as any thousands +030 or 120,210,300,490,580,670,760,850,940.

Controll time bonus is reasonable tecnique.

But you can not find folk at no empty box stage like 22 or 44.

Is it enough to understand??

If you can not,I will send Japanese mail. please look for someone your friend understand Japanese completely.

I realize easier explain.add 2 lowest digits of score(tens and hundreds) at the beginning of the stage.

If it is 1 or 11,you will find lamp(open all boxes) 2 or 12,you will find boots (speed up for 17 seconds) 3 or 13,you will find fork(change all enemies into cake) 4 or 14,you will find timer(stop enemies for 8 seconds) 5 or 15,you will find flower(not killed for 34 seconds). 0,6-10,16 or more, sorry you can not find any special weapon.

for example you start the stage with 41320 points, you can find flower at this stage. If 41310 ,timer is yours and 41300,fork..

No need to feel inferior Hisa, please do not do that!

I have problems myself with the English language from time to time (I4m from Sweden) but I understand all your posts, tips, and trick Hisa ( and the rest of the Marpers also understand)

Please continue with your posts (and great recordings)

Hey Hisa, don't be over modest! I've fully understood your post and immediately enjojed the two-digits trick. But how can you be so quick in maths? It's hard for me to get always the right feature in the next box, so I need a score/time table.

Example:

Screen starts blinking at 5860, time is 43 and I need the fork:

I look for 86 on my table and I find 40,31,22 and 13 as correct values for remaining time, so I leave exactly at 40. Final score will be:

5860+500+400=6760 -> 7+6=13 -> fork!

Maybe isn't the best way, but it works. Is your own method faster? And if so, can you reveal it?

Thanks for reading.

PS: if you were really looking for an english worse than yours, well ... read attentively this post!

Ciao ( friendly italian greeting ).
