You know.... I'm having more fun sharing hints/tricks/tips on this and other games than the actual scoring Let's have fun, gang!!!

I agree, but I still want to beat your score
I'm getting closer ...

I used the autofire on the motherships levels.
For the other levels, I prefer timing my shot.

What are you using as an emulator?

I'm having problems with mine (nostalgia 5) looks like a cannot fire and move at the same time.

I removed the full screen flag and it's working OK now.

I had a chance to play this afternoon, but I didn't realize the contest was on Game 4. When I logged in to post my score, I was all excited to see that I would have been in #1 until I actually read the rules. Heh... back to the drawing board.

[cparsley]

yah, game 1 is WAY WAY easier

[cparsley]

Was bored today, and actually rocked it thru to mid 3rd run, and then it fell apart

New high for this challenge however of 9,183

For those wondering:
Run 1 - normal line bombs
Runs 2/3 - Squirrely Exploding Bomb
Run 4 - Sphere Guided Bomb (it seeks your butt out, but it's lazy doing so, not being a sharp turner)

Could have done much better I think. But once you get to that third round and they start dropping all of the hurricane bombs it gets tricky.
Damn, I cant belive I missed out on beauty and the beast. Is it ok to still post a high score?

[cparsley]

Its okay, I think but it wont count for score... I missed out on BurgerTime, and that still has me a lil preturbed lol

I'm ready for Burgertime again too lol. I just picked up a set of mint Intellivision II controllers and i'm ready to put them to the test.

Still, that's a very good 1st posted score! You do have the setting on 4 right?

My 3rd score, 6,027 ...gettin' better. Lost like 4-5 lives on those red alien bastards.

Only had a chance to squeeze in one quick game last night: 3207.

[JayWI]

I dreaded this cramp inducing game so I put it off as long as possible. 3240

[cvga]

I'm not a big fan of this game but at least I'm on the board with 2,946...


Additional levels doesn't make this game more fun for me. I greatly prefer Demon Attack (or Phoenix) for the 2600.

I guess they are.

Oh well on to other things.

Oops, I thought the time expired late tonight. I should have checked first. Oh well.
