DazzleHP Posted August 12, 2015 Author Posted August 12, 2015 We pesent to you (albeit a bit late) our GOTM for August:Gauntlet!We all know this as a classic game of the eighties on many platforms - i had it on the Atari ST and while great fun as a co-op game, i could never do it on my own! May be because i was a kid, or it really is hard soloing. Either way good luck with this absolute classic folks!We decided to use "Score" as the leaderboard as it is what Twin Galaxies uses. This keeps it simple and you can also compare your scores to those at TG.PS: Apologies for the delay this month, all three mods have been busy with RL, we'll try not to all be busy at the same time in future 2 Quote
DazzleHP Posted August 13, 2015 Author Posted August 13, 2015 I'm clocking about 11k so far - not impressive i know, but damn this game is hard! Quote
hansolo77 Posted August 13, 2015 Posted August 13, 2015 How would guys feel about an extension on this game? Since it was highly voted, and didn't come out till almost half of the month was over. I was thinking about giving it till September 30th, to let everybody have a go. Does that sound fair, or should we keep it at the normal monthly cut off? As it is right now, we only have 19 days to compete, compared to at least 30. What's your call? 4 Quote
Adultery Posted August 13, 2015 Posted August 13, 2015 I say extend it. I mean it's Gauntlet. 'Nuff said! Quote
DazzleHP Posted August 13, 2015 Author Posted August 13, 2015 You're the boss! I personally think people will enjoy this one, and we did take our time getting it out this month Quote
hansolo77 Posted August 13, 2015 Posted August 13, 2015 Updated OP. You now have until September 30th to compete! 1 Quote
DazzleHP Posted August 14, 2015 Author Posted August 14, 2015 And we're off!!That's about the same as my best so far I think once you get more familiar with the levels, and get a rhythm going, the score will rack up Can't wait to see what the pro's get on this one.*Updated OP, DB, RSS. Quote
DazzleHP Posted August 14, 2015 Author Posted August 14, 2015 EDIT - changed my earlier booboo: 10800> 10880 Quote

ExedExes Posted August 24, 2015 Posted August 24, 2015 I'm glad this is going on a bit longer, after IGBY 2 I needed a break. This game is very tough to do on one credit but then we have 4 characters to pick from. Here's a score.ExedExes - 19,150 2 Quote
GimmeClassics Posted August 24, 2015 Posted August 24, 2015 this is tough - 5,440I have only played a test run when this game was part of our monthly poll. It sure looked like a tough game I'm glad this is going on a bit longer, after IGBY 2 I needed a break. This game is very tough to do on one credit but then we have 4 characters to pick from. Here's a score.ExedExes - 19,150It was a good call indeed to make this GOTM August + September. Nice score Ex! Puts you in 1st place Updated OP, DB, RSS, LB Quote
hansolo77 Posted September 3, 2015 Posted September 3, 2015 Just a bump here... remember we're still playing Gauntlet all this month! Lets see some scores! 1 Quote
DazzleHP Posted September 3, 2015 Author Posted September 3, 2015 Just a bump here... remember we're still playing Gauntlet all this month! Lets see some scores!Yeah, stop holding out! If you can get past 13K you are doing better than me easily!If you are not aware, each score you submit count's towards your overall position. What this means is you can easily overtake an "elite" scorer, just by playing more than them!It's true! Our system is point-based, not position based. So even if you feel you are only average at games, you can still beat our higher gamers simply by participating in as many games as you can Try it! The more games you play the higer rank you will gain. It really is that easy 1 Quote
wolfman24 Posted September 5, 2015 Posted September 5, 2015 I guess I should raise the bar24805 Quote
hansolo77 Posted September 6, 2015 Posted September 6, 2015 I'm thinking about this months GOTM more and more. Gauntlet is such a huge game. Right now, we're taking each score at face value, whatever class you take. But now I'm thinking "wouldn't it be cool if we had a running tally of the best scores for each class?" Am I just over thinking this? Oh, and consider the bar raised my friend!Updated OP, DB, RSS Quote
wolfman24 Posted September 6, 2015 Posted September 6, 2015 such a huge game and i think the furthest i got in it is level 6 lol 1 Quote
garetmax Posted September 7, 2015 Posted September 7, 2015 This is definitely hard with just one person. Its much more fun with multiple players.1 coin8,085 as the WarriorSTC Quote
hansolo77 Posted September 7, 2015 Posted September 7, 2015 That's really not a bad run, all things considered. I still need to try and play this game. I think I might give it a go tomorrow.Updated OP, DB, RSS Quote
garetmax Posted September 12, 2015 Posted September 12, 2015 Here's a little better score for me on this one.As the Elf:11,720STCI've been trying some different strategies so this score's strategy was to get a black ghost for 8,000 points. Quote
hansolo77 Posted September 13, 2015 Posted September 13, 2015 It's an improvement for sure! I'm still mad at myself that I haven't played this yet!Updated OP, DB, RSS Quote
wolfman24 Posted September 22, 2015 Posted September 22, 2015 thank you sir still waiting for someone to take my score away lol Quote
