fakecortex Posted May 21, 2020 Share Posted May 21, 2020 (edited) After going through a number of winged thinged games (we'll see if they show up here ) I'm satisfied with my count on Deadly Duck. If you squint, that's 6 dragonflies + 4 ducks for a total of 10 things with wings ? Can I just say @Vocelli, that was the most fun I had not playing Atari today ? It was like a video game scavenger hunt. Looking forward to kooky future bonuses Edited May 21, 2020 by fakecortex 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fakecortex Posted May 21, 2020 Share Posted May 21, 2020 I just realized that I coincidentally wore a duck hunt shirt today. It's like I have espn or something. 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just realized that even though it's a complete game, Shooting Arcade is technically a prototype and one of the rules for the bonus was no prototypes. So, instead of Shooting Arcade, here's Demon Attack! 6 things with wings 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skippy B. Coyote Posted May 22, 2020 Share Posted May 22, 2020 (edited) Starting off the round right with a new personal best high score in Joust! I played this game a ton growing up but I never felt like I was particularly good at it. Skill or not though, Joust is still a really fun game that's super nostalgic for me!

RetroRob Posted May 22, 2020 Share Posted May 22, 2020 Some research into extraterrestrial lifeforms was required for this one! I started to wonder whether things could've taken a different turn if Earth would've known more about these fellas. But hey! They thought barriers could stop them! Well, we all know how this ended! ?
