carlsson Posted May 29, 2021 Share Posted May 29, 2021 (edited) Well, I had another go and to me it is a huge feat to even get beyond 10,000 pts so I don't understand how the rest of you are doing it. To me, Popeye is a smidge of a better game than Mountain King, but not by a lot. I give up and accept last place in this round. Edit: I was bored so I tried once more and managed to clear the first level. My top score thus is a meager 16030 pts which seems to put me right above @RedThunder in the bottom region.

carlsson Posted May 30, 2021 Share Posted May 30, 2021 Since the round was extended, I gave it one final chance. This time I reached level 3, but completely forgot about using spinach, cages and any other bonus items so my score only became 16200 pts, thus a marginal improvement over yesterday. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Usually I bag Brutus at the start for the big bonus. Stay at the top, go in and out from each side collecting 1 note rarely need to go down below, avoid any punching! Use the spinach if in trouble or at some point! On 5/29/2021 at 9:30 PM, therealbountybob said: EXTENDING this round until TUESDAY 1st June 4PM UK time.

+therealbountybob Posted June 1, 2021 Author Share Posted June 1, 2021 Congratulations to Deteacher (he's probably still playing!!) for a Captain's performance AtariSphinx takes runner up spot. Thanks for playing guys, let me know if I missed anyone. Next round will start soon. Not sure what others think but I think the more reliable punching makes the game less tense than the original where I cower if I have to do it! Like the new graphics and animation but it's slighly premature toot toot on PAL at the end of the round. final tables POPEYE ARCADE 1st Deteacher (19240) 652,430 13pts # 2nd AtariSphinx 389,280 11pts 3rd McKong 143,310 10pts 4th graywest 115,020 9pts 5th therealbountybob 113,900 9pts 6th Mr Trust 112,630 8pts 7th tompateus 103,840 8pts 8th 8BIT 1337 90,120 7pts 9th Tron04 72,730 7pts 10th fakecortex 63,700 6pts 11th roadrunner 37,870 5pts 12th Sikor 22,660 4pts 13th RedThunder 20,490 3pts 14th jblenkle 19,960 2pts 15th carlsson 16,200 2pts # includes top NTSC score bonus point 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
