Very fun game!
FYI, you can jump ... I was having problems finishing the first screen until I realized that I could jump over the barrels and the secret agents!
What exactly happens when you get kill! .. BDSM

The high score for this game was broken twice at Funspot during the last tournament.
First by Donald Hayes then the next day by Jason Cram.
I saw part of both performances.

ok I'm getting better but I'm afraid I still don't have a clue what's going on.
I know the ducks eat bullets.
aside from that I also seem to be loosing packs of bullets for some other reason.
I don't know how to get extra bullets. I've watched my bullet count while shooting o, or B, or S
is it random? stealing your bullets or giving you bonus? I don't get it
-Shoots the pipes first to get the most points out of it. (the number of point always goes down, the number of points is located right below the pipes).
-Try keeping the BONUS letters as long as possible, then shoots the letters in order. (the bonus point increase every time you hit a target, see right corner for the point value) When BONUS is completed, you will get the points. If you don't get it in order you will not get any points.
-In the upper left corner different items will appear. Extra Bullets, extra points. Just shoot at it to receive the extra.
...or you will loose points or bullets. This is probably why you are loosing bullets without knowing it!
-To get extra bullets shoot the boxes with number in it. 10 or 5. You can also shoot in the bonus window located in the left corner.

This threw me to start with as I kept on pressing down for the bombs (have played the 2600 version too much), but like this version much better now I have got used to it.
FYI: If you use the joystick port #2 you can drop the bombs by pressing down.

Thanks patbb, yes I actually have 5 lives I read that wrong.
I'm still questioning though: extra lives every 20K, is this correct?
the settings at top of this page say "Bonus life after wave 5"
Yes every 20k is the right setting.
The "after wave 5" is from last week contest ... copy/paste error.

ok so do I need to adjust dipswitch settings? I have 4 lives but I'm actually getting bonus lives every 20K, just like at the arcade.
By default you should have 5.
At the beginning of the game you should see 5 men at the bottom.
Then 1 second later your first man will appear on the board and you will have 4 in reserve and one on the play field.

MAME .139 extra life works correctly.

See this link to see get all the information on how it was build.
Have a look at it;s other projects ... see the footer of the first post.

This game seems to play very slow. Maybe it's a emulation issue?
I have the same problem with mame 106.
With 119 it seems to be OK except that I don't receive any extra ship after completing the 5th screen.
