Hi Score Comp #28: Satan's Hollow *SPONSORED BY GROOVY GAME GEAR*

<< < (7/11) > >>

Ummon:
Okay, another try of first crossing at beginning of second board. There seems no real strategy that is effective in the higher boards, but merely a matter of having at least two power-ups, and being very scrutinizing with your shield time....but of course the distanced collision detection ups the ante on this. Many times I wouldn'tve died if it was more like regular games.

Note: my hi on the 25th was using .104 .  This recent jaunt has been with .134 .

Ummon:
Another little round of experiment on .134 crossing the bridge at the beginning of the second board. I crossed like at least six times, and had two ships stolen. There are three fireballs at the sixth crossing beelzebub. Still, I only got this:

DrFrag:
Can you get any more than two powerups at once?

Ummon:
No, I guess not. (It'd be cool if you could have them in reserve, huh?) Doesn't do anything but add points to your score for how many ever flags you got.

Ummon:
Been exploring this even more - like, why not cross at the first board?? So I did that, and then crossed earlier and more times....and yet, each time I didn't break a hundred grand. I once tried again to do it the hard way - going till board fifteen or sixteen before crossing the first time - and still only got maybe seventy-something thousand. Man, I had a bunch of providence that time around, huh?
