manterola Posted February 17, 2020 Share Posted February 17, 2020 (edited) There are many tricks in this game. I've never played it before. For example, It took me some time to realized about throwing the ball, and that I can start moving before the end of the music, and that you don't need to eat all the fruits to pass to the next level. The problem is that it is too similar to digdug that it is very hard to unlearn digdug and play the game with another strategy. For example, I keep forgetting I can push apples and kill several monsters, or I always get confused by the monster with the letter and what to do with that, and how to transforms all those ghosts to apples. So far, I am struggling... So I just need to keep playing and getting used to it. Edited February 17, 2020 by manterola 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Movement should be pretty good, the game does speed up as it goes on so bear with it - anyone on emulators try full screen mode (alt-enter) perhaps Welcome to AtariLeaf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trying to hold off on the bonus games but we might round up some new ones later in the season, but check it out guys and give them some feedback I've added a bonus challenge "Fastest Time for Stages 1-3" and a bunch of Mr Do!

Played a lot but little progress. This is really a lot more tactical than DigDug. Need to think about pushing apples to avoid pushing daisies. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The site is shut down, but the contents seem to remain here: https://jess3.com/projects/mission-pneumonia/ While it might be bad taste to name games after potentially dangerous diseases, I must admit that Pneumonia sounds a bit cool. The other year I made a crap game called Meldonium in spirit of Tanium, Uridium etc. Haha brilliant. I hope I will get well soon. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr.Dig(RC4).xex 39.2 kB · 3 downloads I love Mr. Dig. Bought it as a kid on tape. Played it for years. Great game. But thanks to HSC I learned to appreciate Mr. Do! I think Mr. Do is more challenging and in the end cooler than Mr. Dig (sais a die-hard Mr. Dig fan). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marius Posted February 18, 2020 Share Posted February 18, 2020 Arg there is a small bug in this game. You know when one if the enemies stands still too long it changes into an eater. So it can eat its way to you.... But when this eater is on the bottom of the screen it goes wrong. This time I had the word Scene eaten. Okay I thought let's play further (was doing a good job). But as soon as I managed to get an extra life with the EXTRA characters the game crashed completely arg. So beware of those eaters. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw there is Henri too for anyone wanting to try yet more game on the same concept, even if it is not a HSC entry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
