Lol. That said, with potentially unlimited extra lives, I imagine silly scores are very possible on this game if you get a groove on. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lol. That said, with potentially unlimited extra lives, I imagine silly scores are very possible on this game if you get a groove on. Lol. After 50K, it gets much harder and there seems to be less fuel depots available. So honestly, I don’t think the scores can to get too crazy because of that. I imagine it continues to get even tougher as it goes on. I was struggling a bit after I hit 70k. Died several times because I ran out of fuel. I really like this game though, I think it’s fun to see how far you can get. Edited October 15, 2020 by IntyFanMatt 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suck horribly in this game so I've only seen one extra plane, do you keep getting them each 10k you get? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So if you can find a groove, you can last awhile. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So did you see how they start spreading out the fuel in longer intervals, making it harder to survive? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oddly enough, I didn't have as much problem with that since I usually speed up when I get to half fuel as I did with the "Chopper Alley" and "Ship Stream" areas where they put in a really tightly spaced grouping of like 6+ choppers and ships respectively. Lost a life in each of those areas. I was sure I was on pace for 100k before I got stupid and threw away 3 lives right at the end trying to take a fork I should have just avoided. The good and bad of this not being random is you can learn from your mistakes, or choose not to as I did. ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just gotta hit all those fuel depots and be smart with the "fork" decisions, lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IntyFanMatt Posted October 20, 2020 Share Posted October 20, 2020 (edited) Record...BROKEN AGAIN! (Sorry Biff) ? 85,920 But now I’m thinking it’s really hard to get to 100K. I struggled to get to this score because you literally CANNOT miss or destroy one fuel depot, so it gets extremely difficult.

roadrunner Posted October 20, 2020 Share Posted October 20, 2020 23,950 This is alot different than other versions of RR Huge fuel depots, narrow rivers. I didn't see any hot air balloons or a tank on a bridge either. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
