Another building down ... 30,700 now (the 30k barrier broken)... I'm still looking for level 10+ before the end of the 2 weeks.

27,750 Lost at the same exact spot as cparsley but score is a bit lower.. Baaahh!
I would have made it, but did a stupid thing, rushed up a closing window and lost 3 lives because of that....

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.


This is an approach I think I'm going to try.....as you re-climbed (if that's a word) the building did you continue to get new Buford's awarded?

answer is yes, Buford's do get re-rewarded as you repass the correct spots on the building, however, falling off does NOT reset the difficulty level, it just builds it a little slower for that building (but you pay for it in future buildings due to the reclimb).

I'd post a pic but the gallery is currently down.

I got 7000 after several attempts. I doubt I'll play any more.

If I can get my screenshot added later I will do so.

I played a couple games over the weekend, but the discs on my Inty 2 are really crusty - I had a heck of a time trying to play. I haven't had this problem before so hopefully I'll have better results next time I fire it up. I used to be pretty good at this back in the day, but when you can't climb up the windows, or stop yourself moving left/right it's tough...

I'm going to cheese out and blame the controllers. Didn't bother taking a screenshot. I actually did better than the other day, but still lost most of my men from either missing windows or not being able to turn around when I wanted.

My high: 4300

Nah. Most of us are just bad at this game, so it won't matter how many videos we see of others playing it. I'm personally waiting for the next game.

I really like this game. It's a cross between Donkey Kong and Crazy Climber. Two of my favorites. :cool:

I haven't given it much thought. I just got a CIB Locomotion today but I have yet to play it. I think I'd be cool with anything. I'm having a bit of a Lock n' Chase desire as we speak.

I'm going to have to mute the volume though. Lock n' Chase game sounds always drove me batty.

I think I'll give Beauty one more shot to try to break 10k. I doubt I'll do it but worth a try.

Edit: I failed.

I know I'm a little late, but 14,050. Had to add my score, this was one of the first INTV game I played, and one of my favorites.
