Do you have to return to the main menu in Slam Tilt to get high scores to save?
yes you have to return to the main menu.
I did the same mistake fortunately i did a screenshot.

Ah bollocks.

At least I know now I suppose.

Getting 1 million with your first ball makes it extremeley tense. I nearly died of heart tense-ness-ocity.

My youtube account only goes to 10mins I will try and upload it to http://tinyurl.com/287wgy sometime tomorrow, is the misc section at bottom of page. Take awhile to encode and make sound synced though and i got a headache so dont want to start just yet

In this run i only just found out that you can move the glowing circle things for the score multiplyer thing in top left. Made it easier! Most of it is luck for me though. Can get it good patterns to get loads of extra balls but im too lazy for that.

I think i also got extra ball in the top left corner, where the balls stuck for multiballs. It was at a later stage...

Yeah that's where you collect the extra ball after you light it.

You can also get "extra ball lit" as a prize in the space station.

Edit: at the above picture, the green light in the middle of the picture, at the right.

I 'think' it has something to do with enabling modes on that ramp.

yea i was confused until my last run. When at the reward thing i thought you got the extra ball when you selected it. but you only get it when you get the ball up the ramp.

My video has turned out weird. After i encoded it like i normally do the colours of the video changed ¬_¬ yellows are blue now. My old videos are fine when playing back though so im confused. I did have problems with WinUAE and recording other day....but this is just weird

Congrats VermillioN, must have taken you ages to get that score. If someone beats this I will personally buy them a drink down the pub, should I ever meet them.
