Yesterday I've received my copy of Hera Primera. I assume that in the next days many people will receive their copy, too.

Oh, I didn't expect that people do practice runs until they submit their first score. I think it's more fun and challenging to post (almost) any score. But that's just my impression and feel free to practise more. As long as you don't submit a score of 150.000 on 30th April. 😉 Thank you, Brett, for your having tried emulation on a PC out and sharing your experience. I've tried out Scramble with Dr. Snuggles emulation on my smartphone and gave up pretty quickly because of the controls, too. I had the impression that there was some delay when controlling the ship but I might be wrong. I guess my fine motor skills are just not good enough to play games on a 5.8" screen with a virtual controller. 😉

Oops, this happens if you guess names of ROMs and don't double -check. 😕 Thank you for your hint, Dr. Snuggles, I've just corrected the link in the initial post and changed it to the one that you've provided.

We're all playing well. Which dude? 😉 We're eagerly waiting for your first Scramble score, @TheCurlyBard. 😉

I see. You're in 4th level of 2nd level maze / round - same here. Looks as if it's me who I should try to shoot and bomb more items to get a higher score. 😉 I also wonder how you manage to get past this corner of the maze but we'll find out... Well done, Madwindoman! I hope that no anabolica, no stereoids, and no other drugs were used during playing.

4th level? I'm in level 2. I guess you could score much higher if you tried to shoot and bomb away as many stuff as possible.

Maze craze: 58,910

. o O (When playing the first 20 seconds of Scramble it really feels like playing the arcade. O.k. it looks very different but the Vector graphics are quite appealing, too). A first score: 39,350 (Vectrex console with digital controller from Victor Marland)

For me, collission detection in first level is fine. Perhaps a matter of differences in the adjustment/tolerances of the Vectrexes?

Until now I haven't experienced problems tegarding collision dtetectipn but I haven't played much and haven't made it far, yet. From what I experienced, if your shots pass an obstacle your ship will also pass savely. But in the maze there's little to no time to check this.

More than 100k - great stuff, Brett! 😎

Excellent playing, Darrin, cheeko, and Brett. @Madwindoman: Playing Galaxy Wars SL in the emulator is always an option. Not optimal but at least you don't completely miss out this round.

Great playing, Darrin and Marc! You've mixed the top 5 ranks of the high score table quite a bit. Only constant is Brett's #1 rank.

Well done, Marc. . o O (I shouldn't have pointed those great and keen Vector War players to this Vectrex HSC - too much competition, now. 😉)

52,956 - Original hardware Brett's 97k is really a stellar score. 🌠 Finally, I managed to score at least more than half of Brett's highscore. 🙂
