195 here. I can consistently get 2 minutes+, but get hosed at 1:15 with the centipede + spider spawn. Need to get a lucky quick spider kill and then have the centipede line up nicely to harvest his gems all in one go it seems. Before then I can basically keep the map clear.

I uploaded my best run (406 seconds, #7 in the world last I checked) to youtube and annotated it with some nifty tips n' tricks on how to beat the skulls! Check it out if you're struggling with any part in the first 400 seconds and it just might help you figure it out: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a7fap82pnUo

If you desire to cheat you can just google 'external crosshair' and download the first one you think seems legitimate. The DD devs might have a low tolerance for people trying to get an unfair advantage to get ahead on the leaderboards though so I'd advise against it.

The tip about where to aim for the gemmed skull above spawners will definitely shave a few seconds though.

I can pretty consistently get to the centipede clean (if I have the right music playing) but I find that killing the centipede and then killing the spider before it eats the centipede's gems is way easier than trying to kill the spider before going after the centipede. Why? Because I always end up having skulls spawn as I'm centipede killing if I wasted my time on the spider first but having a clean, walking shot on the centipede gives me enough time to kill the spider before skulls spawn. Thoughts from the experts on this one? That said, I was curious about the blue daggers you spawn when you level up your shot. How do you shoot those? I should know now before I get that far.

I wouldn't mind a real game being made out of this, I love the chunky Quake 3d graphics. I don't really want to pay five bux for an arena time trial, but some little Painkiller style campaign would be cool.

I just got to 192 seconds (441rst), and I don't know if my heart can take it. The game becomes a pure adrenaline rush. b0necarver's and the other top guy's runs are absolutely eye melting. They almost seem like a parody of EXXXTREEEEME!! 90's games.

I'm in the top 3!  Got pretty close to beating the Devastator. Had the maximum amount of homing daggers you can have coming into the fight but just couldn't seal the deal

Was 48th last night with 239, dropped 30 spots over night. Even after consistently killing the first centipede now still find myself getting a bit overwhelmed at 180ish, too much stuff on the board when the spiders rock up.

If you collect 100% of crystals up until that part it's really easy. The only real way to fall behind is if you fail the quick kill on the eviscerator and have to catch up by killing it after things actually start spawning. If I miss more than 2 crystals when it burrows the first time I just instantly hit R. The video I posted on this page has instructions on how to consistently get the quick kill.

Yeah your video is how I'm now doing well at the centipede, getting good kills on it 90% of the time. I must be loving up a few crystals in the leadup though, cause it seems to take a few more spawner/bigskull kills then i expect to hit the upgrade. Just happy to be top 100 though!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XVRcfRVVpfQ Here's something interesting for headphone users. You can enable HRTF since this game supports OpenAL and has the latest version of OpenAL Soft Follow this guide to install 32bit and 64bit OpenAL Soft onto windows and enable HRTF. The dev said in the steam forums that he'll try and implement it sometime, but it's pretty easy to do yourself. This also works for all games that support OpenAL

Quick tip: If you hold down the regular fire button when you fire homing daggers you will fire less of them than you would if you only fired homing daggers. This is useful for both conserving them and to get them to spread out all around you by spinning in a circle, holding down the fire button and mashing M2. e: I also just confirmed that Spawners spawn the first group ~3 seconds after they appear on the map and the second group ~20 seconds after they spawned the first group. The times are the same for both types of spawners. Bloodmobile fucked around with this message at 05:04 on Feb 24, 2016 |

I haven't got this yet for money reasons, but how do homing daggers work? Or rather, how do you get them.
