+therealbountybob Posted February 24, 2015 Author Share Posted February 24, 2015 232,450 A few more points but wasted too many lives early on. After a few goes you realise being patient until getting the double shot weapon is a good idea and little movements as you kill the waves help to avoid the meteors Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McKong Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 Not sure it's the game. I'm playing off the cart and haven't seen any glitches in lots of games Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Cafeman Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 Could be the emulator. I've experienced collision weirdness, some ship sprites getting stuck. And bonus rounds not giving all the enemies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And bonus rounds not giving all the enemies. Previous HSC Gyruss mentioned two versions of the binaries out there - Atarionline.pl have a host of versions and formats to try. Emulator users have the luxury of being able to use the ROM files Round 3 poll OPEN Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doctorclu Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 Well, playing on the real hardware I had it once where the ship would not go into warp. Really sucked too because I would doing a decent first life run. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Cafeman Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 If I reboot cold after each game, it seems to reduce the chance of glitches. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SHiNjide Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 Gotta ask... what did I do to piss the meteor off? Absolutely no idea. I had the meteor bug 4 or 5 times and always in stage 4. Just a coincidence? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+therealbountybob Posted February 25, 2015 Author Share Posted February 25, 2015 Absolutely no idea. I had the meteor bug 4 or 5 times and always in stage 4. Just a coincidence? I have a theory (and I'm sticking to it!)... [EVERYONE] Keep an eye out to see if it happens after shooting loads of stuff in the middle ring in the confustion - perhaps if you let them fly out it doesn't happen (or perhaps the other way round). Also make a note of what stage it happens on (perhaps all). So far I've not had it which means on my good go it will happen!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doctorclu Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 So what is the meteor bug? All I can say is, and this is story wise in the game, is there a "meteor ship" off in the distance hurling meteors at you? Other than that those stupid meteors seem to always be where you are. Quite the unlikely co-incidence. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
