TodayIsForgotten Posted August 3, 2014 Share Posted August 3, 2014 I'm sure a lot of you will get a higher score than that. I'm not particulary good at Robotron. Just one of those games i can't truly figure out. Havent touched this in a long time but my personal best is wave 51 which i did a few years ago in the RetroLeague. Might seem good but the difficulty ramps up quite a bit through each series of waves (every 10 levels). My hat goes off to those who loop it. Also makes me feel like poo since this area of genre is my forte. Sad face. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TodayIsForgotten Posted August 4, 2014 Share Posted August 4, 2014 There are quite a few people who can and have done it. 51 was a long time ago, unfortunately. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mame Offender Posted August 13, 2014 Share Posted August 13, 2014 The Yellow Label Default Difficulty is 5 and the Blue Default is 3. Quite a noticeable difference in this game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stephen Posted August 13, 2014 Share Posted August 13, 2014 Are you saying there a noticeable different between Yellow Label Difficulty 5, and Blue Difficulty 5? Or that there is a noticeable difference between the two on their default settings? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mame Offender Posted August 19, 2014 Share Posted August 19, 2014 Man, when you get on a roll, you can pile up a bunch of men quickly, especially with those 5k human rescues.Here is my first submission:Red/Yellow Label ( difficulty 5)263,825Gotta love those Williams tough games.

Or that there is a noticeable difference between the two on their default settings?That is info I received off of mame.072 program. I can definitely notice a difference. Mainly in the grunts. STEPHEN is right about the grunts. More numbers and more aggressive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cynicaster Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 You've got to be kidding me... 300 points short of M.O.263,525I can confirm that I used the difficulty 5 settings for this run.For most shooter-type games, I find I only watch my character out of the corner of my eye while I constantly scan the playfield for targets and points. The "position" of my character goes more on instinct and "feel". That style doesn't work with Robotron, I find. My scores started to improve when I switched it up and started focusing my eyes on my character, and aiming out of the corner of my eye. The game field is so cluttered and claustrophobic that you have to make very fine maneuvers in order to survive. For me, it's just not possible to achieve the required level of precision unless I focus directly on my guy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice score though Great review of Roboton btw ! It's a claustrophobic game indeed which requires you to focus directly on your character.
