CapitanClassic Posted August 28, 2020 Share Posted August 28, 2020 As a kid, I was able to play this game indefinitely. I think I just stopped when I hit 100,000. The trick is to make sure that you collect the top row bits by immediately going up the elevator after a tank (or other enemy) passes on the same side. This gives you the most time before a tank can pop out and shoot you. Then just push down to drop down a level and repeat the figure-8 pattern. I made a couple of mistakes, but I think I have the pattern down finally. I will keep laying until I hit 100,000. 74200 - CapitanClassic 3 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the video arcade 2...that’s pretty cool too...ru using the cx40? Thank you! This is considered a computer monitor. It's one of the models that Commodore 64 used in their monitors, complete with the separate chroma and luma in the back for s-video. Mine is composite and s-vid modified. I run the composite to the tv, and the s-video to my RetroTINK, into my capture card for streaming. I'm using a CX-41 stick from the flashback 2.

AtariWarlord Posted August 29, 2020 Share Posted August 29, 2020 (edited) 24,000. I hate this game more than COVID-19. Edited August 29, 2020 by AtariWarlord Mistakenly thought I had improved my score. Yeah right. 3 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deteacher Posted August 29, 2020 Share Posted August 29, 2020 67,000! It doesn't really get "fun" until you crack the 30K barrier. That's when things get fast and frantic. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vocelli Posted August 30, 2020 Author Share Posted August 30, 2020 Vocelli: Adventures of Tron: 42400 Not a fan of this game ONLY because of the hit detection of the bits. Otherwise, it is ok. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RetroBreakout Posted August 30, 2020 Share Posted August 30, 2020 47,000. Really enjoyed this game, kinda wish we had it for longer than 1 week TBH. The tanks scare the jeepers out of me when they suddenly appear out of nowhere! Preview attachment IMG_5382.jpg IMG_5382.jpg 60 KB 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrMooCowz Posted August 30, 2020 Share Posted August 30, 2020 42000 I had to griiiiiind to get this score. Most of my best attempts ended in the 20000-30000 range. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rogerpoco Posted August 30, 2020 Share Posted August 30, 2020 Tron-47,800 I'm truly done with this one for now, but it really does get pretty fun when you get the hang of the tap-dance involved in avoiding the tanks, it turns "ridiculous" into an interesting "puzzle challenge". 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

S.BAZ Posted August 30, 2020 Share Posted August 30, 2020 32,800 I like this game but it can be really frustratingly punishing. Jumping over the tanks is fun. The arrow - basically just a useless obstacle to avoid although I have used it in the past to jump over all 3 sentinels (or whatever those things are called). 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
