I’m sure someone will top this quick, I’m not that good at this one but this I the best I’ve ever done I think. Built a rotary and it seems to have made me just slightly better than I was with regular controller.

I goofed and played Tempest 2000 mode before I read the directions. I was about to post my best T2K score ever. It takes a lot longer to rack up score in Tempest Plus mode.

Man this is hard.  I can't get off the red webs...

Yeah it is a lot harder than T2K mode.

Jaguar kept crashing.  Think i need to do a full cleaning and if not may be a problem motherboard.  Will upload a photo tomorrow. 

 

I did like the challenge of this mode though; nice to change it up every once in a while

This was happening to me as well. The game was also slowing down and even freezing for a second or two from time to time. Then I got one of those freezes and instead of resuming the game went black and only the music kept going. I cleaned the cartridge and all has been well.

 

I've been enjoying this round. I've been playing this game for over 20 years and I've probably given plus mode 5 minutes before now. This was a good opportunity to put some serious play time into a mode other than T2K.

Same here. Never played PLUS  until now.
