As legend has it, that damn invisible robot was a last minute add in that came at the expense of the spiders’ ability to drop webs which would slow down the player character. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mr_me Posted July 22, 2020 Share Posted July 22, 2020 (edited) 73300 Mame, gravis gamepad (xmapped) didn't quite make it to the invisible robot The legend says that a 12 year old kid was brought in for testing and got further than anyone at Mattel.

Each game runs for 2 weeks, so you still have time to enter a Space Armada score! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IntyFanMatt Posted July 22, 2020 Share Posted July 22, 2020 Played some more of this tonight. Great game, but man, controlling the running man really sucks. He is so herky-jerky in this game, and sometimes unresponsive when you want him to turn a corner. I wish they made the controls a bit smoother for him. Classic game though!

Yeah it's another peril of the disc. Joysticks work much better. One of my sons was playing Pacman tonight and cursing the disc, lol 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In fact, I find the disc works well with most Inty games. But Night Stalker is one of the few that it doesn’t. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
INTELLIVISION SPARTAN Posted July 22, 2020 Share Posted July 22, 2020 Ok great!! I’ll only have 5 days but I’ll load a Space Armada score. I wish I had the full two weeks though. I saw 190k ... 5 days may not be enough LOL. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gar0u Posted July 22, 2020 Share Posted July 22, 2020 I remember being able to get to 80,000 on this one. Took a while, then it was over pretty quick. Haven't played this one in a while, but it was a favorite as a kid. Here's my first entry: 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rickster8 Posted July 22, 2020 Share Posted July 22, 2020 4th Entry - A little improvement. The goal is 100k plus, but that damn invisible robot is DREADFUL!!! ? 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sucks to have to go through all of that just to get to the interesting/intense parts of it. Edited July 22, 2020 by IntyFanMatt 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also think each gun re-load should have had 10 shots in it, 6 is too low to me.... ? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That discourages me from playing this one a lot. And 10 shots would be awesome! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still love them despite the pacing quirks. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still love them despite the pacing quirks. Agreed, some are slow, but still very fun. The complex strategy games, like Utopia, Sea Battle, or Sub Hunt, are slow but so damn good and interesting. They put a lot of effort and creativity into those games to make them engaging, and I love them. They aren't for everyone of course, but there are still so many great action games on the system too. And that is what made the Inty so unique. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
