Fun odd little game.

don't think I'll wreck my weekend attempting how to even come within a stones throw of that 400k. yikes.

Yeah that's a tough one to get even close too. I was a demon at this game as a kid - it's why i chose it! But 25 years, and a few trillion spent brain cells later i can't do it for shizz lol

2nd on your first submission though is still impressive :)

Far be it from me to scare people off from playing! I just happen to have tons of real world arcade experience and I've been using MAME for well over 15 years. I'm not good at everything. Look at my s

Look at it this way.. you're on the board, and you're not in last place. So you got plenty of room to get better and improve your score. Updated OP, DB, RSS

ExedExes' hi-score is indeed quite amazing. Nice second place score though ;)

Regards.

Welcome to the comp :)

Great 1st submission! Maybe you'll be the first to give Ex something to worry about, he's held this board untouched from the start.

It's a bit harder now but I should have a margin up to 360k. Reaching 400k will need a lot more gameplay tips/optimizations to learn and practise for sure!

Hehe. Well, I saw an intricate post made by the new guy earlier in this thread. I discovered at the end of the post that he put a final segment stating the main game objective. There I learned that you get sick bonuses for lit bombs.😲

Just going around grabbing bombs and coins and whatever goodies are available will take a long game to mount any kind of score. So my new strategy is to try for all lit bombs possible.😊

You've gotta love those 50k bonuses! It really "jacks" the scores up, get it?

It also "jacks" up my position by one notch.

Wow MO, you really are a "Jack of all trades" :)

Adding more than 100K to your best score. Amazing job and you're getting pretty close to Ex's top score of 401K B)
