Attax is one of the few outside NBA Jam / Gauntlet Legends where you could save a player profile..... perhaps the only other arcade game that does that?

Yeah its a pretty interesting game tbf!

Looks like a similar save system to ironman off road.

Attax looks interesting though. Music reminds me of hypnotoad

Exerion.

Won an ebay auction for an Exerion in a converted Zaxxon cab for $0.99. Was a few hundred miles away. Convinced the seller to deliver it for $40. Should have never sold that machine. I ---smurfing--- fell in love with that game. Most hate it, but I'll always have eyes for Exerion.

After completing my trackball machine the other day I discovered a fun little puzzle game called Attax.

The Ms loves it.
Not really obscure, but give The Irritating Maze a try.

I’m not sure who’s the dumber party in this story.   :lol

Exerion has some novelty in graphics and ship flight dynamics. I recall the game play lacking or being weird.



Forty dollars for one hundred miles would have been taking advantage of them.

I have only mentioned that game a million times in my posts. ;)
It is by far the favorite game of the young kids who come to my parties.

I would give you more examples where I mentioned it but the search doesn't work.

My buddies kids like it so much that I downloaded both seasons of the cartoon show for them.

It's loosely connected to the TMNT universe....in the 2003 series they actually make a brief cameo.  I've also mentioned the game more than a few times for the record.

Nope, You didnt put it in this thread so its been ignored.

Gota milk this for all its worth...

Another fun game I discovered yesterday is one called Tumble pop.

It looks like Pang in many ways but you platform around to suck up ghosts.

When I get the new build finished I'm going through that High Score challenge. Launchbox has got community high scores built into now as well. I shall look forward to finally proving how incompetent I am :-)
