Figured I'd get a couple of games up on the board here. Galaga is a hard game to play when set to the required HARDEST setting. I didn't want to post a score until I at least bested the 20000 top score on the game. So, unfortunately, my score is actually pretty low and should be easily beatable by the elite guys here. Figured we needed a shmupper here anyway, what better way to start? :)

@Celly: wow, that's a lot of points !

I've just started to play and I'm still between 20.000 - 30.000. But I'm getting better -_-

Need a little practice....

Quick question - are we allowed to post as many high scores as we like (if we beat our own)? Imma try get on this tomorrow! But if we only allowed 1 shot well then imma make sure i give celly a run :P not saying i'll beat him but i'll dam try! ^_^ sweet score there bud - way to set the bar :)

@ DazzleHP:

you're allowed to submit as many hi-scores as you want. If one or more of your submitted hi-scores are good enough for a top 5 position your personal best will be shown in the Hi-Score Table. This will prevent having a 'top player' populate the entire hi-score table.

Good luck with Galaga!

If you have any other questions, please feel free to ask :)

Thanks guys. This honestly is my favorite MAME game of all time. And my score, is nothing like the boys at Twin Galaxies. Those are pretty untouchable.

Sweet! well in that case i'll post this one i just did, just to get my name on there for now. I'll be honest i only played Galaga once or twice as a kid - we had Moon Cresta at my local-cade which is similar but quite different :) i'll get the hang of it though! ;)

Score - 78690

PS. Does Galaga save the scores for anyone else? It won't for me which is weird! It saves for many others but not Galaga :( 148u1-nonag-hiscore self compile.

@ Dazzle:

nice score!

My Galaga hi-scores are being saved. I'm using a self compiled version of Mame 0.147

I think it depends on which Mame-version you're using. Maybe you should try compiling 0.147 and see if this works for you :)

Good call on this. I was going to discuss it with you to see what you think. I agree with what you said though so a discussion isn't necessary! :)

For future reference, if GC's explanation is difficult to understand... You will only have 1 entry in the top 5. You can beat your score and we will update the table. So if you're in say #2's spot and you beat the score but not #1's, you'll stay in #2 but with the newer score. Does that make sense? Or am I completely wrong. Hehe. It's fun trying to figure this out to make it fair. I think the idea is that we don't have the same person taking all 5 top positions because nobody can best the #5's spot.

- Han

(ps; updating table now)

Posted

Understood and completely agree! Otherwise i'd be in spot 2-5 right now as all my attempts were higher than 36620 :P

I think the easiest to way to put it is "Only your best score will be entered in the table, however you may beat your own score as many times as you want" :)

Nothing major to report. Just made a few minor cosmetic changes to the OP. Hope you're enjoying the competition!

Posted

Doesn't move my rank but a personal best. :)

66,190

Nice score there! makes me wanna play it more! :D this is what it's about B)

Good job! Updating the Table! I'm still not able to beat my score. :( I hate sucking. heh

I'm taking that as you "don't like sucking banana's"! I don't either. So get your game on Han - Sir!

:P

Holy cow! That score is so high there's no way anybody could come close to beating it! I'm not even going to put that on the table, just to be fair. Heh. Seriously, you should submit that score to Twin Galaxies and earn some rep!
