AtariWarlord Posted October 20, 2019 Share Posted October 20, 2019 Here's a link for y'all, y'all. Those who have gotten further than myself probably already know this, but this guy has a key piece of advice: you can not afford to use ANY flash-bangs on the first two levels. There are specific instances in the third and fourth levels in which flash-bangs are the only way to move forward. You have to figure out how to fight your way out of fixes with your laser gun or escape in the first two levels. 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

toiletunes Posted October 21, 2019 Share Posted October 21, 2019 1742. One of my prized childhood games, and still good for an occasional play. More fun than the Odyssey2 port 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rogerpoco Posted October 22, 2019 Share Posted October 22, 2019 Tutankham-1811 Small improvement, there may be a few from me on this one, even, uhh, back-to-back... I'm pretty forgetful, so I hate to put off score improvements. Haven't really grinded on many of these games yet except the Patch games I didn't already have the Patch score on(H.E.R.O./Pressure Cooker), but this may be the one, somehow I like it, you can manipulate the baddies once you figure it out, and you just have to learn how to deal with a few specific tough spots. Throwing that out there-sometimes it helps to wait for a baddie to come out of a port behind you, so you can get to/past the next port before a baddie comes out. Don't force your way thru the game. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rogerpoco Posted October 22, 2019 Share Posted October 22, 2019 Tutankham-2042 Last improvement for today, I'm off to do some Barnstorming(Game 4 ;P). Looped it twice, then died like a dummy pretty quickly, my goal for the week is to get through it three times, but I'm not holding my breath... Pressure Cooker is surely gonna be my favorite game I thought I hated from this tourney, 'cause I SURE love Activision, starting a boxed/complete collection, and I thought I hated that game, but love it now, but definitely the same with this, I thought it was a real stinker, and it's definitely not, glad to know! Seriously-I have this "You never know when a meteor might fall on your house" mentality, no way I could work on a game and improve it all week and sub when I finally got my best(tho there's not a thing wrong with that), plus with all the beer, my forgeterry kicks in more often than I'd like... See ya tomorrow! 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AtariWarlord Posted October 23, 2019 Share Posted October 23, 2019 Tutankham 614. Got the key on the third level and then lost my last life, but it's progress. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah there's really no way to do it because you'll get more points from the time remaining than killing monsters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On later levels you have no other option but to kill monsters because there are more and they become faster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jefframsey Posted October 23, 2019 Share Posted October 23, 2019 This game is difficult for me. The controls are pretty tough to get the hang of. Maybe I’ll get a better score later this week. Game 1/B/B: 518 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a little trick to standing in some of the boxes and shooting baddies 'till they start coming out fast, I've not explored it much but can net (guessing)30/25 extra points a level when used. It's not breaking the spirit, there's a timer, but it just slows me down, isn't terribly fun. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
