Love this game!!! Can't wait to play, hopefully post a score tomorrow.

[cparsley]

Best "time" to the top? How does one propose to do that, as the game scores, but doesn't time how long it takes you to the top?

[revolutionika]

this is one of my favs!!!!


i will be posting a pic this week.

[cparsley]

Nice to see the edit, getting that nice Imagic cart out

Giving a little Twin Galaxies info on Beast...

The current accepted world record is 68,900 by Robert C Smith in 2002 (yes I hate him)

Note: If you want to break it, you must videotape the game from beginning to end (either on INTV console or emu), a playback is not valid for TG.

[Cebus Capucinis]

I'll post a mere pittance score to start things out A bit more respectable score from me, now I need not be so ashamed!

4,800 17,400

[cparsley]

My first effort, and I'm not pleased with it...

2 Buildings down, score of 14,700.

[IntellivisionDude]

Not so good on my first attempt.

[cparsley]

OMG Man, what the heck type of graphic file format did you use on that screenshot??? It took forever and a week to load in

[jaybird3rd]

Oh, cool, I actually own this game, although I've never really played it before. I guess I'd better start practicing!

And, if anyone out there needs a copy of this game, I've got one with overlays for sale in the marketplace. Only $2 plus shipping!

[cparsley]

I'd request screenshots include the score, building and the # of buildings complete on the bottom, like we had for Ladybug please

[cmart604]

Didn't think you guys would want my first score of 850. Seriously, 850. By game 3 I did a bit better. Still love this game although it drives me nuts when you're near the top, get killed, then find yourself killed once or twice more at the bottom as you try to navigate the rocks and rats and birds you just eluded! Hopefully I'll have something better than this to post soon.

Slight improvement, finished building 6, died at the bottom of 7. Real tough if you miss hearts.

One upping the score challenge, but I know I can do more... Building #7 (Great) lol Note after the third building, the game starts throwing "Awesome"s into the flight words, and after building five, you only get a free life every 4 segments (2 originally), and if/when we get to 10, it's 1 per eight

Looks like we got to the same spot yet your score is 50% higher than mine. What am I doing wrong/you're doing right??? Any scoring tips I'm missing.

Cheers.

[atari2600land]

You guys seem to be having the same games I do in my small collection. So I'm joining in. 8800. I doubt I can do better than that.

I got around 5k once but I haven't even come close to matching it. I've never cleared a building either.

[JacobZu7zu7]

Just got this game a few days ago in the mail...

3rd try ever playing it today,

My Score = 19,550

Very nice for your third try Jacob, remember to save up those Bufords, as you get them less often after building 5.

Thanks! I seem to have a knack for this game, I made it to the 7th Building just now. However, the score is lower then yours...

21,050

Lady Bug I also played, but forgot to submit the score... had a pic and everything,
but it's okay because the score wasn't so great, probably last. Skill 2... I'm surprised
how high the scores were for Lady Bug. They did remember to put on skill 2 right??

4,100

1 building complete

[cparsley]

That's the start of building 8, (as the number counts completed buildings).

I'm looking to post a 10+ level screenshot soon (been a while since played this game, but loved/love it)

[zylon]

Here's what I got so far. 12,600
I've found I can score higher by falling off the early buildings near the top and climbing them again.
