Divya16 Posted December 28, 2010 Share Posted December 28, 2010 11,200 Atari should've called this game "Retarded Alien Flight Patterns" I guess you are referring to the aliens disappearing on the sides and popping up somewhere else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VectorGamer Posted December 28, 2010 Share Posted December 28, 2010 11,200 Atari should've called this game "Retarded Alien Flight Patterns" I guess you are referring to the aliens disappearing on the sides and popping up somewhere else. It's the other stuff like the Galaxians just sitting there moving horizontally above your ship and the fact that it's nearly impossible to shoot down the convoy entirely in its descent. I give it some points for being a challenge but take some away for not being true to the original and using audio effects found in Circus Atari.

zylon Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 This morning's efforts: 17,810 Not bad start. Here's my score after first couple of goes at it. I'm surprised the record(AA)is only 25k! I've gotten better than that years ago so I'm going for it. BTW: Congrats on the P.pos tie. You're always a worthy opponent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Divya16 Posted January 1, 2011 Share Posted January 1, 2011 17,670 That's good playing with arrow keys. I'm assuming you're playing with arrow keys like I am. So, how many more rounds are left in this HSC season? It looks like the 8-bit HSC is up to its last game for this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
