Graham Humphrey · 20 January 2008, 01:29

Right then, here we go with the opening round of the new competition.

Rules:
- The round starts now (Sunday, January 20) and will end at 11:59pm UK time on Saturday, February 9.
- Score as many points as possible.
- Post screenshots of your score in this thread, and write your score underneath. You can enter as many times as you like within the round's time frame.
- No cheating of any kind (including score leeching). If you suspect a contestant of cheating then don't post it in public (anyone who does so will have their posts edited or deleted)- please PM either me or Biscuit and we will investigate it. If we find anyone guilty of cheating then they will be banned for the entire season.
- Please only post your score on either the EAB or Lemon forums. The one you post on first will be your "team" for the whole season. However you are welcome to discuss the compo, game etc. on the other forum if you wish.
- Play on the default settings (three lives).

I participated in Super Stardust round on Lemon last year. To differ scores from the last compo and from current one I will use different initials. Instead of S.R (as on Lemon), now I use SEB (I don't want to erase my old scores).

My score:
1,551,140

Never played this one before and I'm absolutely hopeless at it. Barely made it to the 3rd level and ended with a 'Blind Zombie' rank

Getting better, the second boss did for me this time though...

985842

Graham Humphrey · 24 January 2008, 00:54

Another slight improvement (though nowhere near some people), I still can't beat that damn boss on world two though...

584,902

TodaysForgotten · 24 January 2008, 03:23

Yea, he's a bit tricky. I find staying in the upper right is valuable and just working off/around that corner to develop your strat for when he starts to move.

paranoid · 24 January 2008, 04:05

Never played this game before and wow it has really great graphics and holy cripes does it make me want to throw the controller. Anyway, here's the best of the night, and just before I start screaming.

My score: 240,542

Cheers, I'll try that.

blade002 · 24 January 2008, 12:16

I finished this game a number of times, so this could be the game that finally gets me 1st place !

Graham Humphrey · 24 January 2008, 15:03

Finally got past that wretched boss, did the special mission and got one extra life (are there any more?) and got about halfway through world three before dying.

TodaysForgotten · 24 January 2008, 17:43

It's hidden in the special level somewhere. Basically it pays to explore every single area of the special missions.
