fakecortex Posted April 7, 2020 Share Posted April 7, 2020 (edited) Yay! A game I own! And so far my system and controller are behaving. I like how the music becomes nice and pretty when you enter the maze, only to be interrupted by your plane crashing, haha. And how about how your plane bounces back when it hits the top of the first screen, but crashes in the maze ? Haven't reached the end just yet...back to looping.

fakecortex Posted April 8, 2020 Share Posted April 8, 2020 Shooting blocks and taking long in the maze seem to me like legit ways to increase your score, considering the high risk you take to do so. It feels to me a strategic score boosting move as opposed to a cheap exploit. Serious skill is needed for high scores in this game; I'm just looking to beat my best along the way 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was just sharing so that others could try to deploy the same strategy to try and increase their scores. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Northcoastgamer Posted April 10, 2020 Author Share Posted April 10, 2020 389,515 (Skill 2). I've been fine tuning the pipe screen. It's really not extremely difficult, just a matter of practice, hitting your marks and not turning the corners too tight, leave some room for error. I had well over a 100k on my last plane for this particular score. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It only takes a little finger twitch to go up or down too far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Northcoastgamer Posted April 10, 2020 Author Share Posted April 10, 2020 ^ Practice practice practice. Don't over turn. Takes some getting used to. Fly the first pipe section. Think of it as a race track and your plane is a car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fakecortex Posted April 13, 2020 Share Posted April 13, 2020 Was waiting to post until I safely landed my plane...finally! Trying different controllers to see if I can get a better handle on flying, but all my Sega pads are not matching up properly. I think I'll give it a go on emulation. 34,010 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
