Folks,

Back to our regulary scheduled HSC - Drop Zone.

Play on default setting - NOTE for those using emulators or special joysticks, no AUTOFIRE allowed!

BTW,
Anyone have instructions on how to play this?

Hi,

Basically, blast everything in sight except the men at the bottom. You need to protect these guys, pick them up and drop them over the space station (or whatever that is). The SPACE BAR is for smart bombs and any letter key activates your shield.

Awesome game 8)

I suck at this game.

The gravity aspect is what gets me.

I didnt play this way back since I didnt like the size of the 'guy' in the game - The proporations still seem a bit of but this is a fun shooter to play.

It seems you did put your hiscore in to early ;)
I was never really good in this game, but scores should be only put in above 30k points. Let's see what I can gain this time...

This week is back to the original rules so you can submit as many scores as you like :)

But,
I prob wont get much more than 30K I believe!

I think this is the best game we have played so far (and I really like hero :D )

And this may be a tip, but I find it easier to hit things if I am flying toward it. And for the trailers, sit in one spot and slowly fall and keep shooting at it. (I think the "trailer level" is pretty tough)

Tips or secrets.....well I guess I don't have much of that, sometimes it simply seems to "flow" :) .

The only real tip I have is for the "trailers" I try to get them to come to the top of the screen and follow me up there and simply try to turn around and shoot them one by one. Oh and don't forget to really use the cloak to it's fullest on the higher levels since it's really the difference between failure and success when it gets real hectic.

That's about it I guess......oh another tip, don't be afraid to use the "smartbombs" on the higher levels either since they're really needed.
