Kombalar Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 (edited) I love this game. Just love it. My high score on the real arcade machine was over 30 Million points until I just quit of boredom. I learned the game so well that I could play it as long as I wanted. Even with one hand. Actually a lot of guys in my local arcade could. But I still loved it. It was an amazing game and it still is. Mike Hally is my hero. He created (imho) the two best arcade games ever, Star Wars and Gravitar. Good article here. http://mentalfloss.com/article/91166/5-fascinating-facts-about-ataris-star-wars Edited January 15, 2018 by Kombalar 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flojomojo Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 I like your avatar, too ... Gravitar is a grand, unappreciated game and I didn't know its designer also worked on Star Wars, one of the greats. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kombalar Posted January 16, 2018 Author Share Posted January 16, 2018 Indeed. Often overlooked The Empire Strikes Back (Atari) is a worthy game sequel as well. Here's a list of Mike Hally's all projects. https://www.arcade-history.com/index.php?page=person&name=Mike+Hally 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got any tips for us, Jedi Master? I've played this game quite a lot, but never was able to get anywhere near that good at that (I think getting to level 12 was the best I ever managed.) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kombalar Posted January 25, 2018 Author Share Posted January 25, 2018 Got any tips for us, Jedi Master? I've played this game quite a lot, but never was able to get anywhere near that good at that (I think getting to level 12 was the best I ever managed.) If you have gotten that far you have already mastered the game, sort of. I have no other tips but practice. This guy played over 10.000.000. Maybe this video helps?
