IntyFanMatt Posted July 15, 2020 Share Posted July 15, 2020 17 minutes ago, Rickster8 said: I videoed a game I played last night. Got to 159k. There are few gimmicks I like to do with the red saucer. If I hit him to the side and the way is clear for another shot I will fire another one up with the hope that he might come back out. On the 5th screen I think it is I got him back to back. Also when he hovers low in the later screens you can hit him a few times, but remember you have to keep focusing on the Armada or they will land and destroy the Earth. ? Awesome, thank you for sharing the video! I noticed your score jumped quite a bit near the end when you hit the saucer a few times in a row. I didn't know that was possible, or maybe it's a glitch in the Matrix. ? Well done! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah it's a risk the red saucer takes. The lower he hovers the quicker your shooter can reload and smack him again. Also remember the red saucer scoring is random between (1 to 32x the amount of each alien) so later on in the game you can really wrack up points quickly. I've had games where the red saucer will actually seem like he's reluctant to dive lower, he's becoming 'self aware' lol.... ??? 2 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BiffMan Posted July 16, 2020 Share Posted July 16, 2020 Okay, I tried to wait patiently for Ed or Rickster to improve their scores so they'd be more than 4x my score... 45,850 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Intelligentleman Posted July 17, 2020 Share Posted July 17, 2020 Last night I discovered that it’s possible to hit the saucer at the very top of the screen and take out two purple ships along with it! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
