zylon Posted February 6, 2012 Share Posted February 6, 2012 (edited) Welcome to a new season in the 5200 HSC. We had a great turnout in the 2nd half last season and records falling almost every week. Hopefully, everyone will join us and make season 5 just as much fun. Our game is Miner 2049er. Play on default starting settings. Emulation is fine as is whatever control scheme you wish. Pics helpful, but not required. Round ends on Sunday February 19th 2012 @ 10pm EST Let's get started! Current HSC record: Miner 2049er - darthkur 200,730 Break it for a bonus point!

JacobZu7zu7 Posted February 7, 2012 Share Posted February 7, 2012 What do I do on level 4, the platforms wont let me jump without dieing, and there's no elevator or ladder way to climb?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+DamonicFury Posted February 7, 2012 Share Posted February 7, 2012 If I recall, that level is all about precision jumping. I'm sure there's a YouTube video out there that shows you how to do it. If it makes you feel any better, the Miner sequel, Bounty Bob Strikes Back, has levels that make level 4 (and any other 2049er level) look like a piece of cake.

JacobZu7zu7 Posted February 7, 2012 Share Posted February 7, 2012 Want to start this season firing... this Miner game I never played, (beyond a quick test game), so I'll have to work a lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zylon Posted February 8, 2012 Author Share Posted February 8, 2012 I've never played this one and don't have it, so I'll get out my DC emulator for a token play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zylon Posted February 12, 2012 Author Share Posted February 12, 2012 Looks like Darthkur's record is in no danger. It never was, from me anyways. I gave it a one-and-done just for some points. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BydoEmpire Posted February 12, 2012 Share Posted February 12, 2012 What do I do on level 4, the platforms wont let me jump without dieing, and there's no elevator or ladder way to climb?? I made it to level 5 for the first time today. There are two tricky platforms. The small one in the top, middle of the screen you need to approach from the left - run and jump as one foot is over the edge. The other tricky one is the small one on the left side of the screen. I'm not sure there's a way off of it, so I saved it for last and fell (not jumped) onto it from above. 21,875 - didn't take a pic because I know I can do a lot better.
