    Thanks!

     

    I seem to be having issues on Shark Shark right around that magical 100k mark.  I've had a couple of better scores, but just incremental improvements of a few hundred points.  Still plenty of time to go, so hoping I can pull out something around 110k at least and feel like I was able to do something other than die past 100k.  🙂 

    Remember Biffman, Monk is watching..... He would rather you just keep your nice and perfectly even 100k up there.... 😝

    I have footage of the two sprites on the Shark. I zoomed-in to see more clearly. The yellow fish just took a bite off the fin and you can see on the right-side of the Shark that it's spongy; while the left side is hard like a rock. You were right ... two sprites !! When the Shark gets bit, there's one frame where you can see his body divide into two sprites.

    I have to maximize my score on Shark Shark ... being that I never played Pacman before :) I have the cart but I only tested it; and it was 20 years ago :) I also became pac-manned out by 1981 after playing a thousand games in the arcade when it came out! So I'll be at the bottom of the list :) . If anyone here is a devoted Intellivision Pac-Man player, my score will look silly :) ... so guys, be nice when I post my scores :) :)

    I am DREADFUL at Pacman. Not doing great with Shark Shark! either.... :(

    Yeah occasionally, after a narrow escape, my fish would accidentally clip the shark and I’d hear the “blip” sound as if I just ate something, but I could never figure out how it was happening.

     

    How about those weird times when you bite the sharks tail and it instantly spins around, but then you somehow manage to bite its face? Any of you ever encounter that? 
     

    i don’t think you’re actually biting the head... more like a double bite on the tail that coincides with a reversal.

    What's goofy to me is how the shark eats you when he's on top of you and you bump into his stomach or belly. Didn't know sharks had teeth and / or a mouth underneath them lol. 🤪

     

    Sharks are dangerous and fearful enough so can we have them just use their actual mouths for the eating please....? 🙄

    The Shark is a bit of a push-over and I feel bad for him. I actually consider my little fish as more of a Shark than the actual shark.

     

    Up until about 40-50 k points. Then Mr Shark gets tired of my antics and his behaviors really start to get interesting.

    The game is alot of fun, hard, but fun.... 👍

     

    I played this morning and I had a pretty big fish going, then some killer crustacean from the bottom leapt up and snagged my ass. What is that thing, a crab, a lobster, a gargoyle, lol....? 😜

    Ok... at least for now, I’m conceding course 1. Using the blue car was a new experience for me so I need more practice on it. Nicely done Biffer for humbling me on a game that’s on my list !!! 
     

    Course 2,3,4 and 5.... I can’t be beat. Impossible. 

    Kind of a BOLD statement seeing as the @BiffMan tied you on Course 2.... 🙄

     

    UPDATE: And is now in the lead.....
