Vocelli Posted June 25, 2020 Share Posted June 25, 2020 (edited) Week 8/9 Summer FUN! Kool-Aid Man (B/B) Picnic (B/A) Frogs and Flies (A/A) CLARIFICATION: No use of CHEATS, emulation advantages, bugs, cart frying or other variables that gives you an unfair advantage in this HSC. Please assume you have to follow the game difficulty and mode for the playing week/s. There cannot be any game enhancements or favorite settings to play in the 2600 HSC, unless you are given authorization to do so by your humble yet strict MODERATOR! Vocelli Kool-Aid Man (B/B) Released By: M Network Left Difficulty: B Right Difficulty: B Game Mode: Game 1 Picnic (B/A) Released By: US Games Left Difficulty: B Right Difficulty: A (Big Swatter) Game Mode: Game 1 This Game uses THE PADDLE CONTROLLER! Or whatever controller you may use in 2020. Frogs and Flies (A/A) Released By: M Network Left Difficulty: A The Joystick controls the how High/Low the frogs jumps. Right Difficulty: A Having both switches in A position will make sure the flies cover more of the screen area. Game Mode: Game 1 MOST POINTS by Your Frog Post your scores right here in this thread, and we will add them to the list. Remember to play the game with the recommended game mode and difficulty settings as shown above so that your scores will be consistent with everyone else. The deadline for posting scores is Midnight (EST) the evening of July 12, 2020 Bonus: Checkers Bonus ~ Activision ~ Game 1 vs Computer. Play Checkers by Activision and Win! Suggested by RogerPoco Your remaining Checkers after YOU WIN will determine your points. Kings (A double Checker) will count as 2 Points and a single Checker will count as 1 Point. But you must win the game to qualify. If there are any RED Checkers on the board at the end of the game your post will not count (I understand you can win by trapping the Red Checkers and win) for the sake of this game… you cannot have any RED checkers in your pic). Of Note: I didn't know the rule "Must Jump another Checker if a jump is available' was an actual Checker rule... But I guess it is. Most Points = 5 Bonus Points 2 – 10th place = 4 Bonus Points 11 - 20th place = 3 Bonus Points 21 – 30th place = 2 Bonus Points 31 - Just winning = 1 Bonus Point OF NOTE: For These Summer Fun Games... 50 Points for 1st / 49 for second and so on.

Vocelli Posted June 25, 2020 Author Share Posted June 25, 2020 (edited) Well... The Great Arcade Games and Activision Games were so much fun! Now we come to the grind... Enjoy These Summer Themed Games. You have over 2 weeks to play these gems! ALSO, RogerPoco is donating another PATCH! He can correct me if I am wrong: This patch is a 'Checkers Patch'. It is not an original but a recreation of the Checkers Patch. I will do another random drawing after Week 8/9 is complete. You must WIN at Checkers to qualify! He and other HSC Members are recreating many patches that will be available for purchase very soon! RogerPoco can brief you on everything about the patches.

Rogerpoco Posted June 25, 2020 Share Posted June 25, 2020 Thanks, Vocelli! You are correct, we are having a few new patches made up for the Prototypes, and games that didn't originally have them! @Machine is my main collaborator/inspiration, and @ZilchSr has done a good bit of the graphic design work! There is currently a Boxing available as well-not particularly trying to shill them here, but they are available in the For Sale section. It was intended to be a "living room" project at first, hence the "simple" design on the Checkers, but got a little bigger than that-I'm still happy with it, but have even bigger plans moving forward, the Boxing is spot on! It was pretty funny-after I had the patches in hand, I realized I'd never actually even played Checkers, ha!(On Atari). Took me a half a dozen times to even beat the game, I was pretty sure I wasn't even gonna be able to earn my own patch! Was gonna joke, "haha, I made ya'll play Checkers", but how about this: "By Gosh, I'm not ready to let go of Activision yet!" Best of Luck Everyone!!! Kool-Aid Man... There goes my wrist... 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vocelli Posted June 26, 2020 Author Share Posted June 26, 2020 @RoadRunner. I made it a rule that no red checkers can be left. Understand you won but for this Checkers competition no red Checkers can be on the screen. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deteacher Posted June 26, 2020 Share Posted June 26, 2020 (edited) Kool-Aid Man: AWESOME game! I remember when I was a child, drinking a TON of Kool-Aid so we could mail the proofs of purchase in to get this game for free. Picnic: Never played Frogs-N-Flies: AWESOME game! Checkers: Great challenge. This will be a fun 2 weeks, for sure. I'll start off with my bonus: 8 Checkers remaining.

oyamafamily Posted June 26, 2020 Share Posted June 26, 2020 Kool-Aid Man Easter Egg!! Programmer credits: Set the TV Type switch to B&W. During the gameplay you need to be at the top of the screen before the timer drops to 40 seconds. At the moment the timer is at 40, press Select Game button and you will see the initials of Stephen Tatsumi and Jane Terjung. 9 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deteacher Posted June 26, 2020 Share Posted June 26, 2020 Picnic: 5,520! Playing on a track pad sucks. Gotta clean my paddles, I guess. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rogerpoco Posted June 26, 2020 Share Posted June 26, 2020 Checkers-6 Better than I expected to do, for sure. No promises I won't play again(was starting to enjoy it...), but did want to "get it out of the way", so I could work on the other games. First game where it sorta "went my way", and the A.I. kinda seems to panic when it gets behind-it doesn't make "dumb" moves, it just seems to start making unproductive ones. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deteacher Posted June 26, 2020 Share Posted June 26, 2020 Kool-Aid Man: 41,900! You can have the greatest game going...then one false move at the beginning of a level and it's all over. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know the rest well, but I have played this a bit- Skill is a huge part, don't get me wrong, but you have to be playing good, and hopefully get a good "set" on the Kool Aid and Water coming out where you can even possibly get to it. Was a couple years ago mebbe, but I distinctly remember, "This game is a bit more fun than it should be". 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
