I couldn't play this on my emulator. I had a title screen and GET READY but actual gameplay was just a blank screen that made sounds. I know I killed a few ships but I couldn't see my score.

Also Prosystem
version 1.3e

[Gorfy]

I think the Prosystem I'm using is "1.3" with no "e" on the end

[roadrunner]

It works for me on Prosystem_13 no e at the end.

I might dust off the actual cart and play it.

It's working with the version without the "e"
thank you both.

[JacobZu7zu7]

looks like we should downgrade to version 1.3! too many wonky rom trouble with 1.3e

[Gorfy]

Finally broke 500k on the hard level!..........500,850

I just got this game in before the round started and am loving it, But I don't have a joypad along with me this week and the cx78 pain line joystick is just that.

A good start @: 152,700

I am hoping to pick my game up in short order

Yeah, it did.

Weird ain't it?

[JacobZu7zu7]

I'm thinking since this is 7800 HSC season 4, has been running about half-a-year.... that I will maybe have one more game,
or close this season with Planet Smashers.

The variety pack, will likely be held for Season 5.

[JacobZu7zu7]

I will allow this game to go untill early Sat. morning at ... 1:00AM eastern time zone.

This will most likely close season 4.

Expect season 5 sometime around Feburary.. will keep you all posted.
Some changes in store for 7800 HSC, like simplifed scoring and ranking... plus longer playing times 2 weeks each game, (unless noted) such as a large variety pack or a one week speed round...
