ONE Try Challenge #001 Game: Kaos
« on: February 22, 2020, 06:01:51 pm »
ONE Try Challenge #001

---------------------------
Game Name : Kaos
ROM Name  = Kaos
---------------------------

2 way Joy + 3? Buttons

1 week only (no need for longer, right?). Ends SATURDAY, February 29, 2020 at midnight Pacific Time

RULES:
1 Quarter only!
-One play ONLY (No repeated plays)
Only first score matters
-Study attract mode for game play, ONLY!
No looking for tricks or tips
-No friendly advises to other players after the game
Winner picks next game
-If no winners (draw) Whoever posted first, picks new game
No participants for one week. This thread = DEAD!
 -No need for screen shot. It's friendly competition (if you have the need to stroke your ego by cheating at whatever age you are, then you have bigger mental issues than need to win)
The more unknown the better (all games deserves some "love" and recognition, no?)
-Try to provide your best guess as to what controls supposed to be (If incorrectly recognized as 4-way instead of 8, it stays that way for all)
If you know the game, play it, just say it!


WHY?
Because why not? It's just a thread. If you don't like the idea of it, don't participate. Let it die on its own.
Because people don't seem to have much time to play, but maybe will be willing to find time just to play one time?
Because known games often become a showcase for a player that's been playing that one particular game all their life
Because some seem to have too much time and can play over and over until they can "perfect it" (nothing wrong with that)
Because ALL games deserve some "love"?

EDIT: Forgot to post Settings screen

This reminds me of something I would have played on my Atari 800.

YIKES!
You clearly didn’t read the rules or my rules are not clear enough! This is ONE Try Challenge. You are allowed to play only ONE time. Only the VERY FIRST score you get is accepted. Now you put doubt whether your first submission was even after one try? I hope!

The week is over and there was no more submissions so the final tally is the same as mid-week one.

wp34 -          3000
mimic -         2300
LTC -             2200
FrizzleFried - 1500
pbj -               900


wp34 is the person with fastest reflexes this time around and perhaps next if he picks new title.

@wp34 Let me know if you up for the choice. No need for flashy thread, just name of the rom and settings.

Rockola Fantasy. 

ROM: Fantasyu.zip

Default settings (I played it on the BITKIT)

2,740

There doesn't appear to be an attract screen and I didn't know what in the heck I was doing.

You guys want to continue this in one thread? I thought it would be numbered like regular competitions, each in its own thread just no need for photos of game, title, explanation of what the game is about, etc.
We can keep it in one thread, although I think it will get confusing at some point. You tell me how you feel about it.

I misunderstood this comment and thought you wanted to continue in this thread.  I'd prefer a separate one because as you say it will get confusing.

Sorry for the confusion. When I said doesn't have to be flashy, I didn't mean not creating one at all just that doesn't have to have the look of the main thread. Sorry it didn't come across like that. Doesn't matter now that you created the new.
I'm excited to play it and find out what it is. It feels a little bit like Christmas except you almost certain you'll get a turd!
