Jumping Jack

I'm starting to get into the rhythm a little better, this game is more forgiving than most Universal games...

No spots gained, but worth a mention, I guess.

I'll take it all the same!

Never mind, looks like you already bested your best!  And it bumped you up a spot, always a plus!

BAM - 112,100

Creepin' up on Cynicaster... Those monkeys sure do like to juke around and fake you out on the second level.

I also made a RocketLauncher bezel for this game with what little art is available online. I copied the instruction card from the original manual, only to find that the scoring doesn't match the actual gameplay. I guess "hard" difficulty makes each jump only worth 10pts, and the timer only starts at 8,000pts. The OCD part of me says I'll need to update that...

My OCD would require that too.. but then there's also the "that's not how it was in the REAL arcade"... so I'd probably just leave it, and remember that for contest rules that's how it is.  Maybe you could make a copy of the ROM with a 2 on the end or something and name it "Jumping Jacking Hard/HS Mod".  Not sure how that works but it should be easy enough.  Then you can have your special bezel (which I love!) with the correct score card separate from the original.

Personally, I think that's too much effort, and would rather just live with it.

Nice work, Millerbrad!  Persistence is key around here!

Pretty easy to get on the top 10 of this game with only 6 submitted scores.  I happily coast into spot #7.  

[hansolo77]

Yeah this game was from way back when we first started.  There was a lot more competition back then but not for this game in particular.  I still need to post a submission of my own.  Thanks for the post!

There are lots of "secret points" in this game, so if you want to play it, take a few minutes to watch a quick Youtube video to see where some of them are.  It's been so long since I played I can't remember, myself.

Actually very fun game

[hansolo77]

Got your score added.  Thanks for waking up the competition a bit!  Gonna have to let @Cynicasterknow you beat his #1 spot.
