dark-aleph Posted March 30, 2014 Share Posted March 30, 2014 Space Rocks is pretty cool, never played it before, although its not easy playing it on a keyboard. 27,390 You've been getting those scores for the other games using a keyboard? God help us all if you should get a Stelladaptor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jason_Atari Posted March 30, 2014 Share Posted March 30, 2014 You've been getting those scores for the other games using a keyboard? God help us all if you should get a Stelladaptor. Every other game so far i have on cartridge, and play on my console with a joystick. I don't have any homebrews yet, hence why ive never played it before, and why i played it on pc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+SpiceWare Posted March 30, 2014 Share Posted March 30, 2014 Space Rocks is pretty cool, never played it before, although its not easy playing it on a keyboard. Impressive work with the keyboard! It might help to remap the keys used by Stella. Hit <TAB> then select Input Settings. Stella's documenation has more details. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+SpiceWare Posted March 30, 2014 Share Posted March 30, 2014 One way to get higher scores in Space Rocks is to practice a few games in the No Mans Land Easter Egg, then play a normal game. Instructions behind the spoiler, as it does explain how to trigger 2 of the 3 Easter Eggs in Space Rocks Trigger the Credits Easter Egg. From the main menu hit FIRE on both joysticks (tip: hold down on the right stick first so you don't accidentally change a menu option setting). Release both buttons. Move both joysticks up. Screen will turn red to show that you triggered No Mans Land. Hit SELECT or RESET to exit the Credits Easter Egg. To return to normal repeat the process, but move both joysticks down instead of up. Screen will return to blue. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StanJr Posted March 31, 2014 Share Posted March 31, 2014 Here's my token Dig Dug score 304070 Looking forward to spending the week with Space Rocks. That game is amazing. I lament having to play it via emu. Gotta save my pennies! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StanJr Posted March 31, 2014 Share Posted March 31, 2014 31210 Space Rocks. I feel pretty certain I can do better, but this game, like all iterations of Asteroids, causes many rage quits after a few really good games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LidLikesIntellivision Posted March 31, 2014 Share Posted March 31, 2014 It's not always we have the honour to play an Atari game and compare our scores with the programmer! I hope SpiceWare posts his scores again. And, of course, we have an unique chance to beat the programmer! Last time I tried Darrell Spice won. It is round 2! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope SpiceWare posts his scores again. And, of course, we have an unique chance to beat the programmer! Last time I tried Darrell Spice won. It is round 2! I plan to. I wanted to do a few more rounds last week as well, but was so busy doing some hardcore programming that I was wiped out by the time I posted that. I vegged out in front of the TV Friday night after work, then again all day Saturday. On Sunday I had to catch up on yardwork (chop back the bushes, mow the extra tall lawn, fill in some low spots) and a few other chores. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

S.BAZ Posted March 31, 2014 Share Posted March 31, 2014 (edited) best scores so far: Space Rocks 24610 47390 Dig Dug 322260 a story to go with Scrabbler's -- right after I got my Atari I was at a little gaming party with my bro & friends & a former girlfriend of mine was with us. She never likes video games but when I put in Dig Dug she said "This game is called Dig Dug? ... That's cute." she sat & watched with a smile -- the only time I ever saw her enjoy a video game!
