+jgkspsx #2 Posted April 4 Aw man, you’re really speaking my language! This and Joust were the reasons I pined for a Lynx all through my childhood. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
+jeremiahjt #3 Posted April 9 36,775 for a first score for me. I could not get past level 3. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
+jgkspsx #4 Posted April 10 First score: 100250 I am stuck at level 7. After taking this photo I used both continues and just could not figure it out. Man I love this game. EDIT: @jeremiahjt I accidentally started a game and did not touch the controls through midway through the third level, and only steered when I did, and, uh, I beat your score… I think you must not be shooting. You should constantly be shooting. It’s also important to memorize the locations of the orange flashing boost pads, the green stars (to generate a shockwave, basically a superzapper shot), and the orange non-flashing jumps. (Not all jumps are a good thing.) I never even realized before this instant that STUN Runner is Tempest crossed with a racing game. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Note: no photographic evidence exists as I accidently turned the Lynx off as I was taking a picture. I guess I am not used to using my phone with my feet. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
doctor_shred #6 Posted April 14 52,225 This game is really hard. I've only made it to level 4 once! 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
+jgkspsx #7 Posted April 15 It’s just a matter of constantly shooting, remembering where the boost pads and superzapper recharge stars are, and taking the outside wall in turns. Whatever you do, don’t get stuck behind the armored drones or your speed will never recover. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rick Dangerous #8 Posted April 22 Yeah i had about a 32,000, also couldn't beat level 3. This game is harder than i remember! No high score screen, will have to remember to "pause" next time. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I recently saw Everything Everywhere All At Once and I am really cracking up at this now. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rick Dangerous #18 Posted May 2 Great round guys! Will get the next and final round of the mini-season up today! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
+jgkspsx #19 Posted May 2 @Rick Dangerous @sdrake should be #2 (and I wouldn’t mind if it was #1 since I feel bad about winning in the extra week). 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
