Sigh - a typical Colecovision shooter game for me... like it a lot but the object of the game is not to run into the side of the river or run into things that your supposed to shoot..


Anyway a score of 26500 for me.




Will try to improve on this before Wednesday's deadline

That usually means that the file is too large to upload. Can't be more that 2mb to upload on the boards.

[Ms. Do]

Here is my new personal best. 25,060

Seems like I get a really good game between two or three quick games.
A classic is a classic though...
