NOTE: THIS WEEKS GAME HAS ENDED!

Q*bert

Game Info
Q*bert is a conversion of the popular arcade game. The goal is to change all of the tiles on a pyramid to the target color. To do this you guide Q*bert around the pyramid, and every tile he hops on will change color. On early levels, a single hop will change the tile to the desired color, but on later levels you may need to hop on a tile multiple times or even avoid hopping on a tile multiple times! Trying to stop Q*bert are many different creatures which wander around the board, including Coily the snake, Slick and Sam, and falling balls. On the edge of the board are floating discs; if Q*bert jumps on one of these discs when the snake is in pursuit, the snake will fall off the board while Q*bert is safely transported to the top.

Blah, I wish we were doing Q*bert's Qubes instead it's a much more interesting game.

Ok i suck at Q*Bert on the Colecovision as i only have a score so far of 4850.

The short CV-standard-stick is no disadvantage at this game.

I love this game on the ColecoVision. I hold the standard controllers at a 45° angle so that my joystick movements are in the direction seen on screen (works for me anyway ).

So far got 76,200 (Level 4, Stage 3) which is pretty typical for me. Will try again to see if I can improve.

25,800 is my first score. I got a phone call on my work cell while playing so I will have to give this another go.

Wow - I've never even remotely come close to a score by duncantoml so very pleased with myself. It's also a personal best by miles.

Thanks. I tried again last night but only got to around 115,000. Looks like duncantoml remains the champ
