    Not a new score, but wanted to share:

     

    I made my son sit through a bit of Atari's Asteroids for the VCS before I let him play Space Rocks this week, talked a bit again about the technical limitations of the system, bank switching, etc. Then I popped in Space Rocks, and let him loose. He hadn't shown much interest when he saw me playing it before, but now that he can see how much work went into it, he definitely appreciated the game more, and had himself some fun.

     

    Thanks again, Spiceware! Just don't start woodworking, too, or I won't be able to feel special anymore...

    And, here's why I haven't been playing much this week...

     

    Had to rebuild and mount a Space Invader:

    Fixed and mounted my Berzerk robot and his 'pew pew':

    And built wholly within the week, just needs some paint tonight, the infamous ET:

    Won't help my $hite $cores, but maybe I can get some Geek Cred bonus points?

    First chance to play since last weekend...

    I've been busy building some custom shelving for my carts [will post picks later when my son is off the desktop]

    Updated scores for both games:

     

    Space Rocks: 38,030

    Dig Dug: 45,670

     

    I might be able to score higher in Space Rocks than Dig Dug?!? Wow. Guess I know where to concentrate my time these last days of the games...

    First stabs:

     

    Dig Dug: 36.440 -this one should go up with practice. Never been a huge fan of this iteration, though it is pretty respectable. I don't know why, the the rock/squares bother me more than they should, especially considering the other arcade adaptions/bastardizations I don't blink an eye at.

     

    Space Rocks: 17,110 -also should go up with practice. Atari's version was always flawed, and rollable by anyone with the patience. I've admired Spiceware's work in the past, but this is visually and mechanically gorgeous [still waiting to see the final version of Frantic, and now Draconian, though!]. I foresee that the rest of you will rock my space on this one...

    i was wondering myself about her account because I think i was able to start posting right away, I don't remember any waiting period. is there an email you have to reply to?

    (glad you're still here Rainbow Kitty, I guessed you might not like this game but it has a lot of rainbows!)

    Yeah, I've done the email confirmation multiple times now... [sigh] guess I'll have to bother the admin email...

     

    And yes, she prefered looking at it to playing it this week, but seems to be digging Kung Fu Master!

    Why I haven't played much this week:

     

    post-29468-0-68294200-1395548019_thumb.jpg

     

    Old shelf broke in storage [and was too wonky for my taste regardless], so had to be rebuilt, restocked, and reinstalled on the wall. This one holds my Atari published titles only, but as you can see, I had to supplement with my few 7800 carts on the right side to fill it in. I'll post pictures of my other shelves once they're ready and full of my third-party library...
