A 1-credit clear of the arcade game Varth [varth], played with WolfMAME 0.259. Score: 6,069,500. This run is played WITH AUTOFIRE (but without any savestates, cheats, auto-wiggle or other tool-assistance). Played for La Calice Cup 7 high score competition. STG Weekly covered the game and that's a good reference for learning about the mechanics if you're thinking of learning it

I love/hate this game. Soundtrack is great. I like the generous bomb budget. Enemy RNG is aggravating but keeps you from sleepwalking through levels. The cameo by Ryu is a nice touch. On the downside... I think the length is excessive, I think the boss re-fights are lazy padding, and I'm still salty about dying to the level 27 RNG volcano and losing a run to the bomb glitch. With the boss re-fights removed, some glitches fixed, and the troll volcano taken out, this would be A tier for me. .
