Got farther than ever. Saw a large gray plane--hadn't seen one of those before.

Nice! That's the boss plane I use my loop on. I try to get as many shots on him as possible before he throws out his first volley of bullets. I loop when he does, steering the plane to a safe spot and then finish him off when I land.

There is no wonder why I like this game! I was doing some reading and found out that the same designer who made Time Pilot and Gyruss for Konami, went onto Capcom and made 1942. Apparently Konami wanted him to make a racing game or something, but he made Gyruss instead, resulting in getting fired. It's great that he did, Gyruss and Time Pilot are in my favourite all-time arcade games list as well! Cheers to stickin' to your guns Yoshiki Okamoto  :cheers:


Gray_Area:

Gyruss and Time Pilot are way cooler than 1942, though.

There's still roughly a day left for this competition right?  Or am I wrong?

My highest score so far is only 114,660.  I had actually recorded that one but the .avi was corrupted somehow.  Think it has to do with my lack of space on the hard drive.  Didn't realize this until after I had written over the .inp file.   :angry:  O-well.  At least I got a picture of it.
