Fushek Posted November 19, 2012 Share Posted November 19, 2012 I better hone my skills ... I've only made it to the 6th screen so far. I'd love to win one of those patches! DZ, very classy move. Hope it pays off with more and more people buying your game. Definitely worth it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+DZ-Jay Posted November 19, 2012 Author Share Posted November 19, 2012 If people buy more games, that's great, but the pay-off to me is seeing more people playing and enjoying the game in its most natural season: Christmas. dZ. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You've already designed your own levels. Here's my high score ... Funny how you changed the font size after the score hits 10K. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LidLikesIntellivision Posted November 20, 2012 Share Posted November 20, 2012 Actually, to play a game with the programmer is one thing I always wanted to do! To me it's a great bonus 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was wrong, my highest score so far is 2,663 That's the benchmark so far because I'm the person who has played it the most up to this point. I'm sure someone will beat that as soon as the contest opens. -dZ.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+DZ-Jay Posted November 22, 2012 Author Share Posted November 22, 2012 how does thecontest work? uountake a pict of the highest score and post it? That's it, just like in any other HSC competition. And just like in the "normal" HSC, there will be a thread for that. For those who are not members of AA, they can submit their screenshot or photograph via e-mail, and we'll post it ourselves. There will be two leaderboards: the official one for the contest in the CarolVsGhost.com site, and the HSC one in AA, both will reflect the same things. I prepared a FAQ in the contest page with more information, but feel free to ask directly here as well. -dZ. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+DZ-Jay Posted November 22, 2012 Author Share Posted November 22, 2012 my other question is there are rounds? so that means you must your best score for each round? how many rounds will there be? There are no real "rounds." The game is open from 1 to 31 of December. You just continue playing and sending new high scores until the deadline. The leaderboards will be updated at least three times a week (we'll try to do it "live," but just in case), so as soon as someone beats you, you have a chance to beat them back. It's all for fun and entertainment, so I wouldn't expect people to "snipe" by holding out their best score until the very end. It's supposed to be a friendly competition. -dZ.

+JasonlikesINTV Posted November 28, 2012 Share Posted November 28, 2012 (edited) This game is soooo hard!! First day of playing and I'm only up to 264. Pathetic I must train day and night to win a patch! Grrr! The ghost is such an A-hole. I'm terrible at this Edited November 28, 2012 by JasonlikesINTV Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To me it's a great bonus Well, I will play in the competition along with everybody else, and post my score. It won't qualify for the championship, of course, but it will serve as a benchmark--at least until that time when someone beats it. I'm expecting someone to beat my score rather quickly. I'm good at this game, but I suck at games in general. -dZ. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The ghost is such an A-hole. I'm terrible at this Don't get discouraged! Check out the hints I've been posted in a separate thread and also use Liduardo's tip: Go to the Practice Menu and play the last level you reached until you figure out how to beat it. Trust me: once you get a general feel for the game, it becomes much easier--as long as you avoid the Ghost! -dZ. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
