MoomUnit Posted April 6, 2015 Share Posted April 6, 2015 I tried several times throughout the week to improve on my 53,900 and had no luck. I guess it takes the 11th hour (almost literally) magic sometimes.58,800 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MoomUnit Posted April 6, 2015 Share Posted April 6, 2015 (edited) BTW, I missed a golden April Fools opportunity on Wednesday. I should have photoshopped and posted a Zaxxon score of 412,015 (4/1/2015).You'd have sort of known that it was fake since all real scores end with "00", but it might have caught a few players off-guard.<--- Oooh! I got a joystick! Edited April 6, 2015 by MoomUnit 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spacey Invader Posted April 6, 2015 Share Posted April 6, 2015 27,100 Small improvement but I'm out of time. Thanks StanJR for the tips 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Cafeman Posted April 6, 2015 Share Posted April 6, 2015 2600 Zaxxon was more faithful than I had expected, but the difficulty and collision glitches prevent me from playing it much more. I hate exploding when I have not collided with anything. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StanJr Posted April 6, 2015 Share Posted April 6, 2015 Thank you. In a HSC dominated by NorthCoastGamer, it's nice for the little guy to get a win now and then! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MoomUnit Posted April 6, 2015 Share Posted April 6, 2015 Nice. I'll take a solid 4th-place finish, especially for my first entry into the HSC. Glad to see I have some tough competition.It's too bad that I missed the first ten weeks, but maybe I can work my way into the top 24 so I can see what the end-of-year tournament is all about.I'm pretty sure that I spent more time playing Zaxxon last week than I did in my entire life before it. It's way too glitchy to be much fun.If they fixed the collision errors, ramped up the difficulty/speed more slowly, and awarded an extra ship for every 20K, they might have a game that was both enjoyable and challenging. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karokoenig Posted April 6, 2015 Share Posted April 6, 2015 I'm pretty sure that I spent more time playing Zaxxon last week than I did in my entire life before it. It's way too glitchy to be much fun. That's the fun part about the HSC. You get forced to dig your teeth into games that you'd otherwise have played for a few minutes, then dumped deep into your collection boxes and forget about them. And every now and then, you discover a gem that way. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StanJr Posted April 6, 2015 Share Posted April 6, 2015 Yep. Likely I would never have played Ikari Warriors without it. And I NEVER would have played Space Cavern ever again without it. Gotta love the HSC. Good introductory week, MoomUnit! Welcome aboard. And yes, the competition is brutal. NCG can roll pretty much every game. Oyamafamily and the oddly absent Captain Classic are right up there with him as well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Northcoastgamer Posted April 7, 2015 Share Posted April 7, 2015 Thank you. In a HSC dominated by NorthCoastGamer, it's nice for the little guy to get a win now and then! Too bad the game wasn't as good as your score Stan. Well played, CGZ! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keilbaca Posted April 7, 2015 Share Posted April 7, 2015 Wow, the competition this week. I had gotten a new pb (I never done well at this game), and everyone puts up amazing scores. Hats off to everyone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
