Slide N Shoot Doubleheader


MegaTack
Each wave consists of two rounds. The first round pits you against descending "space monsters", while the second consists of "space rings" that grow in size if you don't shoot them first and try to absorb your ship. Completing both rounds takes you to the next wave.

[Rathis]

242,500 on mega track

[rmaerz]

In playing this game previously, I believe that the dip switch settings do not take effect until you reset the game. This was an oversight on my part.

So, I am proposing that we accept Rathis' score based on a dip switch setting of Bonus: 20,000 and we change the dip switch settings in post #1 to Bonus: 20,000.

All in favor?

Cresta: 11,820

OK.
Will that gives an extra at every 20k or just once at 20k?

Every 20K

That's good enough for me...I'm going to modify the dip switch settings before we go any further

Long game, i didn't think it would end.

My tip would be, when you get to the screen with the asteroids stay on the left side of the screen and keep firing.

Super Moon Cresta: 15,740
Megatack: 260,100

I think that's enough for me on these 2 games...

BTW, I didn't check the forum before playing tonight--I first fired up Millipede & got 80,453 after a couple of games. Too late! D'oh!

I thought they were flaming testicles.

With some practice, you'll be able to hang around the center of the screen and blast them for points.

Pat:

Can you put commas in your scores so it would read "22,030" - makes it easier for me to copy and paste into the leaderboard.

Also, are you submitting your INPs & scores to Twin Galaxies?

-Sure no problem, I'm not use to ... this is not the standard in French Canada.

-I tried to submit this one but it's not in the list of games under MAME!!
