I'm so curious to see what it is I have to keep on reminding myself not to look it up on the net!!
I won't be able to try it until tomorrow.

Hopefully FrizzleFried will repost his score here!

Big FAT ZERO!!!

How did you guys get any points at all!!!! hahahahahahahaa  :laugh2: :laugh2: :laugh2:

Now I have to try again to see how to play this game at all!

EDIT: I did better 2nd time. I still didn't beat your score, but I did beat FrizzleFried. Doesn't matter though. 1st score is the "charm"????

I landed my balloon first try.  After that I have no idea how I scored points.  I would go up to the enemies and die basically.  One time I killed one but I have no idea how.

Shhh no hinting at what's going on. That was "wonderful" ambush by the game! I was convinced I can score some points, was I wrong!!! If I had a quarter and played this game for real, I'd be pissed! Anyone have seen this game in the wild!? Which arcade did it make it to? Maybe at most some dark corner in some shady bar or laundromat!

I've never heard of this game before.  It was just the first game I saw on the Bitkit menu I hadn't tried yet.  The Bitkit is full of crazy games like this.

LOL - Yeah it's definitely an early 80's quarter muncher made it to the 3rd level on first try but have played the game before ( Years ago ) so not really fair to submit the score here ! -- The canons on the first couple levels are hard to see coming at first so easy to lose several lives before you know whats happening - so doubt there will be very many high scores posted but should be interesting to see.

I say post your score. Will put an asterisk next to your score, but will have something to compare total newbs vs previous player!

Same here! Got 3070 the second time but that doesn't count here.

Final tally (it was going to be the same as mid-week, but I am going to count Wzrd0803 score. a) It's friendly; b) he reported 0 so it's not like it changed anything; c) it's not like we have overload of willing players here; d) new game hasn't been posted yet, so it changed nothing anyways; e) those are my justifications, but the winner has final say)

wp34 -          2740

FrizzleFried - 1040
mimic -              0
Wzrd0803 -        0   

wp34 - you selecting the game again (I hope you're up for it)

I just played the next game.  It is bizarre but I think people will at least understand the rules this time.  I'll get a thread started.
