1 credit play of Sega's Bullfight (The Tougyuu / ザ・闘牛 in Japan), surviving 8 rounds until round 9.
Played on December 27th 2023. using Fightcade/FBNeo. Default difficulty/dipswitches.
Score: 65820
My goal here was to survive 8 rounds and visit 2 bonus stages (activating a slightly altered celebration sequence). The fights were very good, but I failed both bonus stages which affected my score terribly. In most other recorded runs I would do better at bonus 1, but I would not survive for so long. My highest score (not recorded) is 76780. World record holder survived until R14 with a score of 249100.
1CC Challenge difficulty: Survive four rounds 6/10; Survive eight rounds 7.5/10
A relatively unknown arcade game from 1984 that is surprisingly fun with a lot of depth and tech to master.
Fun fact: if you finish OutRunners (Arcade) via West Route and take exit B (Spain course) you'll see a small kameo for this game - a matador fighting a raging bull during the ending ceremony.
