High Score Competition #85 Space Dungeon

<< < (9/11) > >>

jasonbar:
Does anybody else get crashes & glitches? I've seen the following on 115u2 (and MAWS is down, so I can't see if there have been updates since that rev):

1 - Corner zapper zaps even after its neighbor has been shot. Saw this only once.

2 - Game froze & displayed solid-colored flashing screens until I quit. Saw this only once.

3 - Game froze with gameplay image on screen. Of course, I had a great game--24k or so & no deaths. Saw this only once.

4 - Game doesn't redraw/refresh properly. Pieces of enemy left on screen or garbled treasure and once I even saw the exit rectangle get stuck on the screen. These graphics stay on-screen even when you change rooms--they'll wipe away if some other graphics pass over them. I see this behavior pretty frequently.

Thanks,
-Jason

PS--I was just about to call it quits on this game, & then I finally had a good run (well, a good run for me...puts me in only 4th place...tough crowd!), so maybe I'll play a tad more. I managed to see all rooms & get most treasures on level 1. 66,660

I have seen the leftover enemy bits quite a lot, that might be something that the original hardware did. Never seen the zap error or a frozen game.

I am running it under Mame .70.

Gray_Area:
Older MAME has weird bit artifacts appear at times, and they remain from room to room. As well, I've had major slow-downs, and what appear to be syncing glitches. Current MAME is much better. Regardless....

I am hereby decreeing this game un-worthy of remembrance, and removing it from my system.

(+_+):
Paige. 141K. I can't believe it's not butter. How in the name of pasta fazool did you do that.  :notworthy:

I just got 75K the other day and thought I'd post it on the last day and put the pressure on.
Geez, way to take the wind out of someone's sails.  :)

paigeoliver:
I made it through all the screens on the first 3 levels.

My next best is only 99K.

Apparently it is possible to marathon this game, Twin galaxies has a 13 million score and a 4 million score. The points sure come faster the longer you play.
