From Wikipedia:

Navarone is a fixed shooter arcade game, that was released by Namco in 1980. It is the first of three monochromatic arcade games which were developed by the company during the early part of that year; the other two are Kaitei Takara Sagashi (originally developed by K. K. Tokki) and SOS.

The player controls a boat which must move around the edge of an island trying to shoot the pellets, mines and central skull for points while avoiding the bullets fired at it by the indestructible gun turrets. If it should get hit by one, it will lose a life, but once it has cleared the island, the remaining time will be added to its score (in 100-point increments), and it will proceed to the next round.

--------------------------------------------

General Rules:
- One Credit, No Continues.
- Highest score wins.
- No savestates, savestate practices, etc. during the round.
- MAME INP recordings are encouraged but optional.
- A screenshot is required to enter a score (press F12 to save screenshot showing your final score) or take a photo of the game screen.
- If you're a MARP competitor on this title, keep in mind this is just a friendly competition among forum members, so maybe you shouldn't enter. However, if you're a forum member and this is a game you're good at and nobody knows about it, this is your time to shine!
- Even if you don't have a competitive score or if you don't *think* that you have a competitive score, please post it anyway to keep the thread fun & to give everybody a good sense of score ranges.
- Please make sure your scores are from games that take place during the competition period (no posting your best score from last year, etc.).
- Use of autofire or other non-standard hacks within MAME or your PC's OS are not allowed.  No program or other person or entity of any sort may manipulate your controls during your game.  Coaching & back-seat driving is fine as long as the party doesn't directly influence the game or controls.
- If you can beat any of the high scores from the previous competitions, you can submit your score to the BYOAC High Game Scoreboard.



- Quest for the Bronze Joystick! The most successful competitor of each calendar year will possess & display the BYOAC Bronze Joystick Trophy. See this thread for details:The BYOAC Bronze Joystick.
Happy Gaming!

I think this was already picked (#36).
kixfan:
Ha!   Not only was it previously picked, Hanoiboi posted in that original Popeye thread back in 2010.  :laugh2:

Looks like it will have to be Shark Attack!   JK
HanoiBoi:
Dang it!  I don't know how my search didn't catch that.

I tried to pick something that would be more mainstream to appeal to the masses.  I should've known this was already picked.  And yeah, I don't recall stuff from 4 years ago.  :|
 
Welp, I tried Space Zap and actually liked it.  Pretty exciting actually.  But, there might be some joke going on there, so I'll avoid that and Shark Attack for now.  And since I received no other suggestions, and I don't want this to drag on too long without a game, I guess I'll pick Navarone.  I'll assume it hasn't been picked. 

First post is now updated.  If this too has already been picked, PM me.

pbj:
Popeye would have been an interesting choice.  There's a lot of unexpected depth to that game.  For instance, if you turn on the heater, he burns off his weiner.  TOOT TOOT!


Anyway.
