AtariSphinx Posted June 25, 2021 Share Posted June 25, 2021 Solar Storm (1 B/B): 4110 Birthday Mania (1 B/B): 739 Fireball (Firetrap B/B): 18667 Paddle games are my absolute favorite on Atari. Played only 'Solar Storm' before. 'Solar Storm' is a solid paddle game. Takes a bit to get used to the flicker. 'Birthday Mania' hit detection is not so great which for a paddle game is not so good. Missile pixel width is wide yet you have to be almost dead center on the candles. Wants to be Astroblast and/or Kaboom but far from both. 'Fireball' however is amazing. Basically 'Super Breakout' on steroids. I want to try the other playfields later on to see if this game beats out my favorite paddle game, 'Super Breakout'. It is great that HSC provides us games we never or rarely played so can find other games we won't have otherwise found or played on our own.

fakecortex Posted June 27, 2021 Share Posted June 27, 2021 21 hours ago, Jasonhrb said: A score for Birthday mania. Think I am done with this one already to be honest Agreed. Birthday Mania feels like a chore. In the 400s it picks up and gets more enjoyable, then 500s come and it's game over. It looks like it was made as a personal gift, so for that, cool, but not a great regular game. Just read up on it and yeah, about what you'd expect from a novelty. Birthday Mania - 564 Solar Storm is a much better paddle shooter. Over pretty fast, but I'll keep coming back to this one. Solar Storm - 1180 Where has Fireball been all my life?! Now this is how you make a breakout style paddle game. I'm glad I have a harmony cart so I can play games like this on my vcs with a paddle. Although hunting down a supercharger would be pretty rad. I like when you get hooked off screen. I always make the dude run away. At first, I didn't like the break in action, but as it went on, I appreciated it.

fakecortex Posted June 29, 2021 Share Posted June 29, 2021 I appreciate the boost in confidence @Vocelli, but I should currently be in last place for solar storm and fireball. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

agb Posted June 30, 2021 Share Posted June 30, 2021 I only have a regular console with 180 common cart and a bunch of flashbacks including a FB9 with an sd card. Not a high tech person. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
