Game competition #3: Mame - Zoo Keeper
« on: September 15, 2008, 09:38:48 pm »
Well, seems CrazyKongFan has been away a little while, so I've picked the next game.

Zoo Keeper

- parent set, default settings

- use any mame version or variant you wish

- period is two weeks from today
 
- high score wins (a tie means there's more than one winner)

- no savestates, savestate practices, etc during the round.

My favorite game!  :-)

First Pic:  Level 1 (using only 1 man)   :)
Second Pic:  Final Score.   :P

I'm sure I can do better, but I just wanted to set the bar high.

Ah, sorry about that. Hadn't checked the board for a few days. Didn't know I got to choose the next game :) Zookeeper is a fun one. Just one caution. There's a point leeching tactic on the coconut boards. I assume this not allowed? (although it'd be hard to prove without an INP to view)

I say that you allow it.  It's tough as hell to stay alive on those boards, and you usually end up losing 1 or 2 men in the process.  If people choose to do it... good luck!  It's not worth it, when you can score 30,000 points in later boards with the lions.

That's cool, DeL. I figured there'd be some people good at this. I've done a really miraculous game of 399k, but haven't broken 300k since then.

point leech: I don't consider it a leech. It can be damn hard, and it's not like simply jumping up and down next to Kong, you have to leave the pedestal and come back. I can actually do this more easily than catching lions, but not much. Haven't really practiced it.


Deadline. MONDAY Sept 29

Heh, yeah I thought of typing that.

Pic # 1 - My all time high score on ROUND 1 WITHOUT DYING - Beat that!!!  :P  4,190!
Pic # 2 - I had an amazing round 4!  164,700 including the score still being calculated on screen (I hit the screenshot key during the calculation)  I thought I would have the game of my life.  Then I died quickly on the lion board...   :(
Pic # 3 - Not my best score but still respectable: 231,200

But try replicating Pic # 1... it's near impossible.

It's funny you mention Kong. The coconut board leeching is banned by TG, but the Kong foot-jump isn't. The latter is because the game is timed, so you can only do it for a short time, whereas the former, if someone is good enough, can rack up rediculous scores. There's even a scene in King of Kong talking about it. I agree it's really hard to do though. I can get to about 40K for the jump, and get hit by a coconut.

Yeah, the best strategy in my opinion is to jump tons of animals at the same time.  I got lucky on round 4 and jumped for 60,000 points twice.  I tried to attempt this later in future games and failed.

This is a tough game. I can barely crack 30,000

The trick is to get points by letting them out, then grab the net near the end to put them all back in so that they will count towards your bonus points before the time runs out.

Yep, I always thought so too, since it's solid white, but it is indeed a net.  Gotta love 8-bit graphics.

pbw79: depends on who wins....


Yeah, Ray, haven't you watched the attract mode?...or even the intro to each game?

the net: it does look more like a hopper than something flexible and all. After about the sixth board, though, they game cheats you. If you get a whole bunch in the cage, the animals eat faster than you could ever put blocks back. So I just try to survive, and get some large animal group jumps in there for mega points. Read the game info on that, it's pretty neat how it multiplies. (Actually, the whole game info is pretty neat.)

I generally can get at least one jump on the top platform of the first two platform screens but any more than that is courting death. Big points if you can manage more. Anyways, here's my latest high score. On your heels DeL. Arrrr.

Oh, and how the hell did you manage that first board?

I'll give you a hint on the 1st board... you'll have to get the two beers first for 320 points (don't jump) and then purposefully run into the elephant... all within the first 10 seconds.  It will give you "1 more try" and tell you that you need to jump over animals.  So you don't really die.  :)

Hey, something I thought to add to the rules, effective immediately.

- no savestates, savestate practices, etc during the round.


DeL: ohhhhh. That's easy then. Not a big deal so early on. Still, I need to read up on the games presented to think about such things being used. Or not.

Well,

I was playing on my desktop PC all of this time with the keyboard, and then I decided... hey, might as well play on my arcade.  So, I plug a USB drive into my arcade PC to save my screenshots on and go at it.  What a difference the joystick made!

Here's my first attempt.  I got super lucky and managed to jump 8 animals in 1 shot for an instant 120,000 points.  Oh yeah, and I also upped the ante for max points on level 1 without dying.  4,190 points.  :applaud:

It's easier said than done.  Took me forever to max the points out.  I've only managed to tie it ever since, on rare occasions.

Anyone know how to "record" and "playback" gameplay?  I'd like to make a recording.  Sometimes when I am playing I get away with murder and if a whole crowd was behind me, everyone would go, "Whoah! So lucky!".  But I'm usually alone after the Kideo is asleep.  I'd like to see other BYOACers recordings as well.

Yeah, you're right, not easy. But not too hard to get close. I can't get more than 3990, and that's the end of my patience on that. But, look back, you got the same both times - 4190. Nice new score.

Recording depends on what mame you're using. If it's mame32 then it's easy. Cmd line way isn't too hard I guess though a bother. And there are in-game commands but I forget what they are. The thing with recording is playing back. Some versions and variants of mame don't play nice playing back, even though the same recorded has to be used for playback.

Okay. One last score. HAH.  I didn't record it, though. This was my best run in a while. I mananged to dodge the coconuts both platform screens and get some extra fruit, plus got the first bonus on both. I swear, I got to the lions with all my dudes and then lost two of them, else I would've gotten more.

Nice. I thought it might spur ya. I might be able to top that - though not even on the first board. I don't know how you did the first score. Not that I care to figure it out. Just WAY beyond my interest. I'll watch your video though.

Well. This game started off the total underdog, because I only had eighty thousand by the second platform screen. And though I had all my guys, I lost three of them on through the lion screens - but on my last one, I managed to last long enough and get some jump bonuses and be right where the net was such that I ended up with three lions in the cage at end time.

That netted me probably a hundred grand. Then I got some good items on the third platform, including one of those dollar signs, plus the twenty thou bonus (no way was I fool enough to try for a leap and back on), and I was so confident I could pass the elevators, and as you can see was that damn close. Ah well. In any case, a new score for here, a new score for myself.

Well, if my score stays tops, then I get to decide again. Except, by default, I've been decideing, so I'll defer to the runner up. Still have six days, though.

:P
If not, I will sprout an un-official defender (red label only) competition. (I will not partake for many reasons, one being I am in the middle of moving, and two is that I love the game, but suck at it.) I just wanna see how well you guys do with it.

Okies.

Just poking at you anyways ;D

Regardless, get your defender hats ready once the current comp is done. There is nothing wrong with being good at that game :D

No need to wait. Start whenever you wish.

Also, nobody else have any scores? I'd figure DeL might have something as he obviously has the game more figured out than I do. I'm pretty decent but mostly I got lucky.

Killer, DeL. I knew you had it in you.....though......and I have to laugh at this.....you keep saying you beat your board one score while repeating the score you had the time before. Anyways, now I don't have to worry about deferring to the runner up.
