bradhig1 Posted July 11, 2017 Share Posted July 11, 2017 I got over 56000 points and got the grey screen. Does the score ever roll over and how many more screen colors are there? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1980gamer Posted July 11, 2017 Share Posted July 11, 2017 It has 6 major levels, though it gets harder and harder. More guided missiles etc. I have got to 750,000+ put I did not get much past it. It does not FLIP as so much as the scoring become corrupted after passing 999,999 I believe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+cvga Posted July 11, 2017 Share Posted July 11, 2017 I got over 56000 points and got the grey screen. Does the score ever roll over and how many more screen colors are there? There's one more screen color, black, at 100,000 points. The games continues to speed up at 200,000; 500,000 and 1,000,000 points. I don't think it rolls at 1,000,000.

1980gamer Posted July 11, 2017 Share Posted July 11, 2017 BUG: There's no check for the score overflowing -- beyond 9,999,999 points, the scoring routine starts displaying negative numbers, letters, and other ASCII characters. (Ironically, the catalog description promises "Unlimited scoring potential.") http://intellivisionlives.com/bluesky/games/credits/space.html#astrosmash 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+fdr4prez Posted July 12, 2017 Share Posted July 12, 2017 "Unlimited scoring potential" does not mean a readable score. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
