High Score Competition # 63: Roc'n Rope
dfmaverick:
Here is my pattern for level #1
#1 rope is self explanatory. There's no other way to start. I will jump off the platform to where I shoot #2 rope. Luring many baddies down for this egg grab is not easy and I usually settle for one or two. I will shoot #3 and usually there is a caveman where the dino is in this pic. I'll hang on the rope since he is likely to get on and flash him. I will shoot #4 to the egg. Usually have to wait til there's room to get off. If no one is on this tier, I will shoot #5 to the bird and hang around near the egg. I'll grab the egg and either shimmy up the rope to hopefully get some across the chasm, or I'll go down the vine to get some right below me. If I go down, I will go back down another vine so I can shoot rope #3 again and continue on to the end of the level without dealing with others on the other side too much. I usually skip getting the second feather. If you leave yourself enough room up by the bird, you can flash the pterodactyl for a few more points before completion of level 1.
Usually only around 10-11k on level one.

It's fairly easy to get 20,000 points on level one with just one guy. That's a similar path that I use. I have flashed the pterodactyl several times before and never noticed a score increase... If you wait a while, enemies will cluster just under the phoenix which can greatly increase the score from the last egg.
dfmaverick:
Pterodactyl is like 400 when it falls out if sky.
I definitely do not maximize my points on level 1. I don't linger around on the first egg and am probably throwing points away there. The guys under the Phoenix are definitely hit and miss. Need them to line up well for a quick scurry across to just get them before the egg wears off. Normally, I'm unlikely to get any of them.

This game may click for me at some point but it certainly won't happen before Wednesday...for now the frustrating ways to die (3" falls off the rope etc) are too many and varied to have much fun lol.
Nephasth:
Finally made it to stage 5! It's stage 1 with items in different locations. No new high score, just happy I finally made it past stage 4.
