be77amy Posted August 27, 2013 Posted August 27, 2013 Wow! What a jump! That's gonna be tough to beat! I have a backup score of 118k and you've smashed it! 1 Quote
Draco1962 Posted August 27, 2013 Posted August 27, 2013 Update anyways - even if not first, you may bump others out of contention for placing! Quote
be77amy Posted August 28, 2013 Posted August 28, 2013 sorry.. I'm afraid it was all or nothing with this one. Quote
GimmeClassics Posted August 28, 2013 Author Posted August 28, 2013 WOW ...you don't have to say sorry be77amy. I like this competition we're having. I hope others will join us Your hi-score will be very hard to beat. But like I said before, I like a challenge Updated OP, DB, LB, RSS Quote
be77amy Posted September 2, 2013 Posted September 2, 2013 Seeing as how this games gone a bit quiet and I like the competition on it I thought I'd post a few gameplay tips that might help some people:Level 1: head straight up the middle all guns blazing and try and get the can to drop before heading back down. grab the can and go straight back up the middle shooting. ~12k pointsLevel 2: if you did the first level correctly you should have enough super spray left to shoot kong to the top before he gets chance to do anything. ~20kLevel 3: straight up the middle again until the bees come out then back down and survive. shoot the caterpillars on the way down to stop them infesting the platforms. ~35kLevel 4: I usually lose a life on this level but try and survive as long as possible. On the fresh life rush for the can which should get you through 2 more levels! ~60kget more points by shooting the exploding bees with normal ones around them before you shoot the orbitting bees. dont let the caterpillars land. And above everything else dont lose your plants. the hit to your bonuses is shocking! Quote

I actually used the same strategy with my 100K + score.This should really help a lot of us improving our scores. Please join us and start spraying yourself to the top Thanks be77amy ! Quote
hansolo77 Posted September 3, 2013 Posted September 3, 2013 Sounds a lot like the strategy I found when I got my high score. Thanks for sharing! Quote
ehuonder Posted September 16, 2013 Posted September 16, 2013 Having grown up playing Donkey Kong & Donkey Kong Jr., I never played this one... Seems very different than the others. I might come back to try and improve my score...37,200 Quote
GimmeClassics Posted September 16, 2013 Author Posted September 16, 2013 Having grown up playing Donkey Kong & Donkey Kong Jr., I never played this one... Seems very different than the others. I might come back to try and improve my score...Donkey Kong Jr. will probably be added to our competition as of October 1st (see poll).Be77amy shared his gameplay strategy for Donkey Kong 3. It might help you out improving your best score. Thank your for submission Updated OP Quote
ehuonder Posted September 17, 2013 Posted September 17, 2013 The strategy does help! But how do you get the big sprayer to show up on each level??? Sometimes when I transition to the next level, it doesn't 'spawn', so I'm stuck with the little gun... But I still improved...58,000 2 Quote

But I still improved...58,000@ ehuonder > nice improvement !!The big sprayer will only show up when you lose a life. When I lose a life I usually pick up the big sprayer at the very end of the level when Donkey Kong is near the top of the ceiling. This way you can spray Donkey Kong quickly to the top and still have some left at the beginning of the next level. This really works for me Good luck improving your score dkon0002.png59300 initials: wlfSettings used of post #1mame 1.06@ wolfman > nice score !!Updated OP, DB, RSS Quote
