I couldn't break 32K for the longest time. Gotta get a good shield configuration if you wanna get the big points. Brilliant game.
Yep. The strategy is all about timing your shots so that the shields cluster, or ideally, appear on top of existing shields

Death Trap

I really like this game. Lots of strategy and I have no idea how you get a high score, but it's fun to play.
Aside from destroying the 3 pillars, you score points based on how many ships you have every few seconds, and lose points for allowing the energy field to close in on you (which happens if you go too long without hitting IT)

Changing "monsters" to "ghosts" was an improvement.

None of those bins work DarQ. I can't change the game in Wabbit, Rabbit Transit just goes black. And Death Trap isn't playable.
Just play them in your browser. that's what I do:

thanks, I played it a bit more and got a higher score.
Death Trap - 16,301
what happens if you destroy the third pillar?
You win. This is one of the few Atari games that ends.

Death Trap - 46 don't understand this game at all
It's pretty much just a vertical Yar's Revenge, except the shield gets increased, instead of decreased as you progress

I had improved my score to advance several places, but I forgot to submit it in time. Oh well.

I would love if you would check it out. Its a sci-fi adventure in the style of the Goonies or Stranger Things, about a group of science prodigy kids who get kidnapped from a National Science fair and must use their wits to escape.

Bonus:

I chose Superman, because I am currently creating my own comic book, which I will be launching on Kickstarter March 9.

(also Superman was one of the original dozen Atari games I had as a kid)

I little refueling tip, if you accelerate up to the refueling plane and then slow down as you touch them, you will hover over them slightly longer as they scroll down, allowing you to gain a little bit more fuel (then just passing over them)
