Count9929A Posted March 6, 2021 Share Posted March 6, 2021 Time to start March's competition! It's quite some time that we don't play a game by TI. My first choice was Blasto, but then I realized that it was already selected, even if it does not appear in the first page. So it's time for a to the Moon... more precisely for a trip inside the Moon... will anyone find the elusive Zygonaut? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jwild Posted March 6, 2021 Share Posted March 6, 2021 I don’t know about all the colors of dots in Cave Creatures, but the green ones seemed invincible. And some dots seemed to “suck up” the creatures and then they would appear in the other side of the screen. The sprites were difficult. Especially several levels in. Sometimes they would spawn right on top of you. It was a fun game, but instructions would have made it better I think.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My impression is that all kinds of dots "suck up" the creatures. I also think that the position where they re-appear is exactly the opposite (with respect to the screen center) of the one where they are sucked.

+mizapf Posted March 9, 2021 Share Posted March 9, 2021 Nah, it's not so hard to play. I expect some true gamers here will dwarf that score quite soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They developed two characters, Terminal 99 and Lady Parsec, putting the samples into their formant synthesizer to make Lady Parsec sing. To my ear, I don't hear much resemblance.

jwild Posted March 20, 2021 Share Posted March 20, 2021 33550. Now I know how to get out the ship! Should have read the manual years ago.

globeron Posted March 21, 2021 Share Posted March 21, 2021 Also just figured out the space bar, but not what to do with the Zygonauts, they just come by or can we shoot them? 39,660 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There seems to be more that one way they taunt you too.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JB Posted March 21, 2021 Share Posted March 21, 2021 That you can't fight the zygonaut is the game's greatest flaw. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Count9929A Posted March 22, 2021 Share Posted March 22, 2021 My hope was that after the last level you defeat it... I don't remember if I ever succeeded, but I am afraid that my hope will be disappointed 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
