Thanks for sharing ExEx ! I didn't know about needing to get the honey before the bees.....it makes sense though You deserved to win your third GOTM title and I agree we all push each other to be our best. Even those who perhaps can't beat the top spot score are still challenged to improve their personal best

Claiming first spot at the Blood Bros Board. Great score ExedExes ! Updated OP, DB, RSS

I'm also excited Lady Bug is now part of our competition. Finally it received enough votes Great Strider score to start this month's competition About Strider's Difficulty setting... I've deleted my strider.cfg file to start the game with default dip switches turned on. Results are below. Maybe you've played this game before and changed the difficulty setting to "2" ? As far as I can tell Difficulty "4" seems to be default. Perhaps a few other members could confirm this...? Thanks for testing ExEx Updated OP, DB, RSS

Let's the games begin ! I'm not familiar (yet) with Strider...however, with your gameplaying skills I think this is not a too bad score Updated OP, DB, RSS, LB

That's fast One hour online and already a submission for this unique maze game I've only played Lady Bug on Medium, so I haven't noticed the difference yet between easy and medium difficulty. Nice first attempt thought MO Updated OP, DB, RSS

This is January's Bonus game ! A nice addition to our current selection of games On a personal note, I'm really excited this game is added to our competition ! Not that I'm good at it but I really enjoy the gameplay of this unique Maze game ! I actually enjoy this more than playing Pac-Man Have fun everyone !! ~ HS Team

I love this idea Tom I'm excited you'll share your tips to further improve the GameEx experience ! Thanks a lot !

I love the new game card Adding the possibility to change the card's background is a major improvement. This will allow members to create their own unique game card Thanks Tom !

No problem Panja I love to help my fellow GameEx members. I think you'll enjoy the friendly community GameEx is

Please try to change the "HideToolbar" value from 3 to 2 in your theme.ini file . This should hide the Media Toolbar for the "default-default" theme you're using.

Hello Panja, the "always hide toolbar" option should have worked. Could you perhaps provide us with your gameex.ini (...\GameEx\Config\...) and theme.ini file (...\GameEx\Themes\...) ? If you ever run into any problems with setting up GameEx this link could also be of assitence Welcome to our Forum btw or as we say in Dutch: Welkom

Wow ! Thanks for your game playing hints Jesse ! I really have to invest some time to improve my game. I'll make sure to use your pointers ...I'm not sure however if I'll be able to catch up with you and guys like MO and Exes ....but I'll do my best !

Amazing score Jesse ! The second player to beat the 1M at Snow Bros Updated LB

There's absolutely no need to feel embarrassed George ! You are a true gentleman and I appreciate your polite behaviour...there's no way I would question any score you submit !
