63,600

Doesn't change anything, but it's a bit better

rexsu · 08 March 2009, 21:34

Practice makes perfect

Graham Humphrey · 08 March 2009, 22:26

This is a better improvement. Practice does indeed make perfect... or at least slightly better

123,150

TCD · 08 March 2009, 22:43

Phew, not the last place anymore... though guess it will only take some hours for mailman

75,900

Still it's not my kind of game

TCD · 09 March 2009, 10:19

And another (irrelevant) improvement

88,550

Graham Humphrey · 09 March 2009, 10:54

But you're slowly catching up though

off1k · 09 March 2009, 12:11

Levels 23 and 24 are being a bitch for me at the moment and thats only if I get past level 15 which still gives me headaches

Updated score: 262150

off1k · 10 March 2009, 13:56

Finally had close to a dream run with this game, got through L15 and L23 with minimal loss.
Crashed and burned on level 29

heres my new score: 364100

Since you are so close to beating the game I will let you in on a tip. When you finish level 30 and the time winds down for the bonus, pause it when it hits zero. Otherwise, when the game ends your score will show as whatever the score was prior to beating the game. Learned that the hardway.

Haven't played this game very often, yet. But I'm most comfortable with the "Directional Flick & Lock"-setting (and two buttons).

What do you use?

TCD · 10 March 2009, 14:10

Just 'Directional' and two buttons. Works quite well for me, because I can't stand the 'Lock' setting

john4p · 10 March 2009, 14:20

But with that setting you can't fire to, for example, up/left while running to the right. I highly doubt off1k and TF beat this game with the standard directional-setting.

off1k · 10 March 2009, 14:29

@TF
Thanks for the tip, you must already have a good score mate but no show and tell

Using 2 button directional lock with analog joypad, havnt tried flick yet and dont know if I will. Wont play this over next few days, might give deluxe galaga another go and try to improve my slack score but Im just not into that at the moment

.

john4p · 10 March 2009, 14:36

Thanks. I think I don't really need the "flick"-part - so I'll change to "directional lock".

AmigaFriend · 10 March 2009, 14:51

Graham, Rexsu is in 1st and 3rd place? Double accounts?

Directional only for me. The others settings I find annoying for my style.

353.250

TodaysForgotten · 10 March 2009, 15:22

No, I haven't be able to replicate my clearing run yet. I use directional lock.

So you spotted my deliberate mistake then

john4p · 10 March 2009, 15:39

And not updating xpect's score is your revenge?

After off1k's and TF's responses I'm now convinced more than ever that "directional lock" is the best control method...

Graham Humphrey · 10 March 2009, 15:50

Whoops.

Sorry, bad day...
