Season 3 / Week 5 ~ The NEW HSC ~ Rock Week

Recommended Posts

a couple improvements to inch me forward :)

 

Dig Dug 496580 good tip dark_aleph ;) I guess I didn't think of that because smashing them is such fun... but it's true, it is more dangerous & the pineapples are really where it's at. still it pays to dump rocks when there's too many pookas to pump

Space Rocks 67720

i was at a stand-still so I went back to easter egg land, put it on hard & battled my way up to 17K. My first default game after that was an improvement!

 

[joy! I noticed if a file is under 1 meg I can still upload :-D ]

Can't get Space Rocks to work on my Harmony cart for some damn reason, which didn't put me in the best of moods so these are simply for participation points:

I suspect you need to update your Harmony's firmware. To check the version you have hit fire on the [.] entry.

It needs to be at least 1.05, which is the version when support for loading custom bankswitch types like DPC+ was added

Thanks a lot for the info. It's a shame I waited until the last minute to play. Not sure I'll get a chance to try again. Either way it will be nice having the Harmony cart updated and to play games like this that are using the newest technique's.

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...

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?

Score post for RAINBOW KITTY

 

4,810 in Dig Dug

 

She still can't post to the forums, and she's too embarrassed by her score to post a photo. I'm still trying to get her to play Space Rocks, but she's just not into it this week.

I absolutely love dig-dug and was delighted that it was chosen as one of the games this week. My final score was 54210, which was enough to beat my dad's score! :grin: Although that was awesome my space rocks score was pretty hopeless. It was 7100. :_( That game may look amazing, but its HARD! :mad: post-29860-0-03808500-1396818655_thumb.jpgpost-29860-0-58678700-1396818671_thumb.jpg

Has anyone found the secret Hard mode yet to Space Rocks? :)

 

Space Rocks - 47170

 

Dig Dug - 126750

 

Dig dug was a lot easier with my joystick that I modified to work on the Atari. I really need to make up/down buttons, as I almost got to my high score on Space Rocks on it, but I felt that my mobility was missing due to the thrust being Up and not a button.

 

I really miss my Starplex :(

Have no fear Rainbow Kitty! We are all friends here! We're excited to have you playing along! Keep those scores coming! Look how dismally I did this week!

 

 

keilbaca, there need be NO hard mode for this game. The normal mode is plenty rage inducing!!! Hard mode would result in broken things around my house!

 

Also, I am shocked. We finally found a game oyamafamily didn't roll. :-o :-o :-o

There is a hard mode. It basically starts the game at the hardest level. :) Its up to Spiceware if he would want me to disclose it or not. :)
