This is a thing in the other games but....if you get 2 Lasers, if you hold the fire button, your Vaus makes a beam charging sound and fires a massive energy ball. It can't break golds but I assume it clears entire columns of breakable bricks. HOW DID I NEVER TRY THIS!? In the other games, double Laser is an auto upgrade without needing to hold the fire button. INCREDIBLE. Please tell me I am not the only one out there who didn't know this!?
Right now the rules for level runs state hitting last block clears a level. There's nothing definitive for getting a B Capsule though that warps you. I believe the rule about when a level ends should be amended to also state that the moment you start to move into the warp gate is when the level officially ends if you got a B capsule. Thoughts?
Thinking about giving this a run but upon looking at the rules, I'm a bit perplexed. For the other Arkanoid games, typically the final hit in the final level is when time is called unless there is an on screen pop-up (like in Arkanoid DS). This game doesn't seem to have that though, so shouldn't the final hit in Round 50 be the cut off for time?
Additionally, why are there categories for 10, 25, and 50? I thought perhaps there was a boss at 10 and 25, but they are just regular levels. Arkanoid Doh It Again for SNES has separate categories (1-33, 1-66, 1-99) b/c those rounds (33, 66, 99) are when you fight the "final" boss of those sections. None of the other games split like they do here for this game. I believe there should be a 1-50 category and a 51-100 category (since apparently those levels exist).
Thoughts?
Hey there, where would one submit a run for the newly released Switch/XBox versions? Thanks.
Hello. Brand new to moderating a game. I recently got a game added to the site called Arkanoid Live. I'd like to have it join its brothers and sisters in the Arkanoid Series. How would one go about getting it placed there? Is this something I can do myself?

Thank you.
