Lauren Tyler Posted February 3, 2016 Share Posted February 3, 2016 27,400 So Donkey Kong was understandable, but Donkey Kong Jr.? After forcing myself to play through nearly two loops of this, I'm about ready to deal out some AVGN-styled insults, but I'll pass. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BladeOfOsiris Posted February 4, 2016 Share Posted February 4, 2016 (edited) 47,300 I wanted to do something different and blog my experience playing this week. One of my classes has us doing a blog on something we love, and I'm trying to get one started on videogame collecting. This was pretty fun, I might want to do this from here on out if people enjoyed it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7YX2FGJLznk Edited February 4, 2016 by BladeOfOsiris 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S.BAZ Posted February 4, 2016 Share Posted February 4, 2016 nice Blade, I'm definitely a fan of any videogame collecting blog! 89,300 I'm getting stuck here! I don't know how I ever got farther. I find myself throwing down "f-bombs" more than usual. my DK Junior 2600 story: My cousin worked at a bar in Arizona when I was about 11 yrs. old. which meant I could go hang out at the bar any time! plus she would give me a coupla' quarters to play DK Jr. She also rocked at DK Jr so after watching her I got pretty good & always liked it more than DK arcade (until recent years). when I first got an atari (in recent years that is) I started hunting for packs of atari games & within a couple months got DK Jr. never played it before a few years ago, but I immediately liked it & was hooked for a while! going back to it now, I feel more confronted by its shortcomings. I'm still enjoying it though and I know I got a lot farther than this a few years back so my goal is to roll the damn score!! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gorfy Posted February 5, 2016 Share Posted February 5, 2016 Alright, I'm starting to get the hang of this finally. It's still annoying, though. New Score: 32,600 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scrabbler15 Posted February 5, 2016 Share Posted February 5, 2016 44,000 Sort of a breakthrough. Down to one guy on the third screen. Played the rest of the game with that last guy. . 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nutsy Doodleheimer Posted February 5, 2016 Share Posted February 5, 2016 I'm going to pass on this one myself. The constant AVGN/Irate Gamer tirades mixed in with thrown controllers are not worth the participation points. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

voodoo_chilly Posted February 5, 2016 Share Posted February 5, 2016 Donkey Kong Jr. - 206,200 can anyone explain why my photos are not oriented? They are correct on my computer but when I post here, they are sideways or upside-down!?!?! I even rotate them on hard drive (and save) then re-attach and they are STILL oriented wrong!! Finally getting the hang of this game. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

karokoenig Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 Finally made it through the last stage of round 3. Only to die right away in the last stage of round 4. No more time to figure out the timing of that one... Anyway. New score: 66,200. I'm content. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CapitanClassic Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 (edited) 89,500, slightly quicker finish, but still stuck on Electricity Lv4-5? I think I know how to do it. I need to jump over the slow moving traps, and then make sure my foot is up on the left. BTW, where is the post for HSC S5-Week 4. I think I have maxed out the amount of effort I want to put into getting good at this game.

CapitanClassic Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 (edited) Here is the thing I hate about this game and games like Mario Bros. for the HSC. It rewards players for making errors. S.BAZ and myself are stuck at exactly the same point. He has a slightly higher score though, possibly due to two possible things.1. He finished each stage with slightly more time to spare.2. He placed a 1-2 keys on the second stage and died, then completed that level.I just scored (90,600 don't count it), but did it by milking just Level 3, Stage 2. I purposefully died after pushing in 1-2 keys. I did this several times, because it looks like you are rewarded +1 (or more lives) for completing a level, and this might max out at 3 lives.Oh well.
