You almost have to get a red right away to collect all the bonuses and stack up the points early. I fumbled with my camera so long I didn't get my name in.

Nice score :cheers: -- the red bonus definitely helps but I seem to not get one until the third or fourth level then after that it is a matter of trying not to lose a life and have to start over without the speed up !

Yea, me too. Every now and then you'll get it earlier. The worst is getting all the guys killed in the same shot, then getting that stupid smiley face SNOW game instead of dropping the cash everywhere. I've really enjoyed playing this one, fun little game and the music is catchy.
What do you guys use to record? Are you taking screen shots with MAME's standard screen shot option?
Comtek:
to record the avi's i'm using mameuifx32 under the file menu select play and record avi
for screen shots i'm hitting f12
JDFan:
I've been using the play and record inp setting rather than avi (using Mameui64) -- it records a much smaler file as it is just the inputs for mameui so that mameui can replay the game rather than an actual recording -- so does not cause any slowdown in game like recording the big avi file on older systems -- then after I get a game I want to post I use Camtasia to record the screen while playing back the inp file and save in mp4 format to upload to youtube.
Would be easier if Saint would allow us to upload .inp format files directly so they could be downloaded and played back in MAME (Figure the inp file for the high score game I posted is only 197KB. so is a much smaller download than the 65MB MP4 file - though with higher speed connections it isn't that bad either way.

Though if you can get the "SNOW" spelt out completely it gives you another life which can be handy also (not particularly when trying for a high score though !!) -- glad to hear you are enjoying the game - I had forgotten about it until trying to find a game for this competition that hadn't already been chosen and hadn't played it in probably 10+ years so it does bring back memories !

Dragons on level 21 not only shoot flame sideways but also bend over & barf flame downward on you from above. Fast. Can't hang out on the bottom & freeze everybody--too dangerous. Ugh.
