High Score Competition #52 - Karnov
danny_galaga:
Woot! I've been waiting for the next comp since I fixed my cab (",)
I suck at Karnov, having never played it back in the day, but i'll start working on it...
Edit: we'll I'll be! I just fired it up, and I still have my high score from last time I gave it a go. What's the protocol for these comps? Should I delete the old high score file and start again?
I use DAG normally, excuse the others. There's just something about 3 letter high score saves that brings that out in me ;D

You have to set it between the comp start/finish . . . although as your friend BUM has a better score than I have achieved so far, you should be ok :lol

No need ot reset your high scores if you wish to save them. Just keep track of your best game that you play in this time period & submit that score. Make sure to enter your score in the text of your post for clarity & easy perusal by readers.
Thanks,

First time I have ever gotten in soon enough to post a high score!
89,580! now just to figure out that second stage boss.

I had some time last night--got to the 3rd level once: 126,840.
The 2nd level has 2 paths you can follow: 1 across the top, using the ladder, & 1 across the bottom. The top path certainly seems harder, but it seems to set you up for getting goodies towards the end if you fly w/ your wings. These power-ups are just confusing & awkward...
I beat the 2nd boss by just staying left & shooting a lot at the lions--they came out 1 at a time. On my 1st try on the 2nd level boss, I landed right on top of them when my wings gave out--yet another cheap way to die...
Oh, and I thought I'd get a free guy at 50k, as in 50,000 points, but you get a guy after picking up 50 of those blocks that say "K" on them. Oy, I can't see that happening...
