Disclaimer: This run is fake. As should be evident by clear usage of save-states and minor graphical side-effects.
I've done some scoring attempts on Lunatic. While I was decently practiced on late-game, I decided it's not worth trying to do a full run on this. The early-game is way too random and deaths often lead to more deaths. I've never gotten past Elly without unintentional deaths, while Stage 4 is by far the hardest stage for my route I'm using. I'm also not going to skip grazes because that loses more than you'd think and getting a score that's not even getting above my highest score on Hard might as well be considered non-existant.
This video for now is just going to serve as a proof of concept as to how high Lunatic can go, while allowing yourself survival mistakes on stage bosses and rings. 175m is the expected max with this route, but theoretical is about 180m. Removing all survival bombs I expect to raise this more towards 190m and a TAS maybe to about 230m.
