Time is 8:10 in the morning.Place is Omonoia square (the centre of Athens).The perfect place for stage 2.Im walking fast because im kinda late for work.People walking opposite me rather clumsy.They form lines and they are dying to hit me.I wish I hadnt spent my last bomb against some dogs earlier in stage 1.But who needs a bomb?My dodging skills work perfect and I avoid them rather easily reaching the dam office quickly.

The day I started playing Espgaluda II seriously I was at HEY arcade in Akihabara. After five-six credits I heard a voice behind me saying "Excuse me, are you icycalm?".

I was like, what the fuck, am I famous now or what? It turned out that the guy was Gaijin Punch from gamengai and Shmups, who had seen a photo of me which I had posted years ago in the Shmups forum.

That was the first time I met him in person.
