Coming back to this game a second time. I find it less palatable. There's a lot of cheap deaths, making the game more luck than skill. I do not know how much time I will put into this one.

The best of the first few tries, came up to level 15. I never liked this game set B much, because it needs quite some luck in some levels, and a lot of skill in others.

Long shot but is there an ADF that runs on A500/600 with the fixed scoring system?

No worries if there isn't. It's just I'm enjoying getting the A600 out more and more because it's a fantastic little machine to play on.

@ Mailman and Ed-209: - Can you guys get closer scores? You are still 36 points apart.

Nice going Harry, I will get around to playing this, I am sure of it.

I solved all the challenges of Game B now, and this is my final try unless lifeschool pulls a better score out of his hat.

Harry, absolutely amazing show - you have truly mastered this game.

I posted my 'challenger score' on Lemon. I'm sure you understand; why should I waste my time trying to defeat a master at this game, when I have Elite Dangerous begging to be played constantly. I say you will be Knockout champion this year...
