We introduce September's GOTM.........GYRUSS !!

It's a shoot-em-up through the Earth's solar system where the player's ship moves in a circular orbit around the outer edge of the screen while shooting at enemies in the center.

Good luck and have fun

Guess I'll start things off. Real crap game from my point of view.

(: I did. I voted Amidar. I guess I could have went with dig dug as those type of games bore me really fast.

[helpman]

I never played this game, and I bet mine will be an easy-to-beat highscore, but here it is anyway, 36.300

400K?!?!?! Holy Crap!

I made it past Neptune (or was it Uranus? I don't remember, the 2nd planet anyway)

Score: 65,350

Initials: GAN (I was in a hurry and missed the H by one letter lol)

Settings per OP

Updated OP, DB, RSS

(although the DB/RSS might need doublechecked, I got an error message about an unhandled exception..)

@ helpman / Han > it's great to see you guys back posting hi-scores ! Great job

@ Han > I got the same message when trying to update the DB. The DB seems to be correct. I'm not sure about the RSS feed though. I can confirm I'm using DBM version 1.1.7. I think it has something to do with Adultery updating our DBM

Updated LB

[DazzleHP]

@GC/Gan - i got the same aswell when i added 1943, but it seemed to have added it. Can you guys confirm your end that 1943 is actually present? Just in case mine is loading the backup. Although it usually tells you when it does.

[Adultery]

I saw it on there yesterday.

The RSS feed bug is indeed due to the update, I shall look into out but I know why it's doing that I think.

It will be addressed when I release the update.

When I changed the name of the db I didn't update the node callout so it's looking for the old db name still.

[hansolo77]

It's cool. I haven't even setup my GameEx to use the RSS so it's not something critical for me. I'm sure there are other people that DO use it though, so whenever the update is released, I'm sure it'll all work itself out.

I can confirm 1943 is present in my DBM's version No scores added yet but it's there

[DazzleHP]

Thanks for the confirmation Den!

[ExedExes]

Sorry to break the tech support party up in the middle of the high score thread, but I've got a score! Although, it already appears the pace has been set, and set rather high. I've looped the Atari 2600 and GBA versions of Gyruss, but not this one (yet). Here's a rather weak effort compared to our #1.

Updating our threads will be a bit later than usual due to some work on our Hi-Score Database Manager. Thank you for your patience

[Adultery]

You should be able to update still...

Fixed the RSS, and updated RSS, DB, Standings table.

For the time being, I will update the RSS during testing, but feel free to let me know if I am lagging behind.

Thanks Adultery. I won't have access to my setup until tomorrow. About 8 hours from now. I'll then update the other threads. Thanks again

Back in business!

went for the counterstop. Miscalculated.

999750 or 1000000 depending on how counter stops are calculated.

forgot to do initials. apologies.

[Adultery]

Well that makes me not want to play... :'(

Might as well just hand the award off now! Not that I'm salty or anything, but the gap between 1st and 2nd is approx 800k.

[hansolo77]

...yeah

@TodayIsForgotten Are you also on the Trueachievements forums too? I think I recognize your forum name from there. You have some insane Shmup skills!

I haven't played xbox in many years, but yes. I am/was Todaysforgotten in the xbox world. Thank you. I don't play them as much as i used to.

Sorry guys. You can remove my scores if you want. I figured setting a counter-stop would kill the desire to play and i wasn't expecting to do as well as i did but it clicked again for me during this play session.
