Capehorn - I'm going to leave the high score table overnight so that Mike can look at it and make sure the first round went ok. So I'll add the score tables tomorrow.

138,941

125,130 + (13 * 1000) + (8 * 100) + 11 = 138,941
Completed, hopefully counted score right
Lost a bunch of lives and didn't collect all the food, so pretty far from clean run. Don't know if I dare to try to get better score later.

^ Yes thats right. 13 Lives is a great start.

An easy way to work out the total score in this case would be your score + 13,811.

Some of those jumps take a bit of getting used to. It's got character for sure with those boss fights.

97,583

93,160 + 4000 + 400 + 23 = 97,583

155,655

136120 + (19 * 1000) + (5 * 100) + 35 = 136120 + 19535 = 155,655

One clear mistake, lost life against level 4 boss. Otherwise quite happy with that score.

Hi Mailman! Great to see you back!

For this round, we are taking screenshots on the final platform level.
Anyone who completed the game must submit a score based on a formula. See the bold text in the rules above.

Use this formula if you reach the final screen: Score + (lives * 1000) + (energy bars * 100) + time left.

We can still accept the score you posted, if you are ok for us to remove 5K bonus which is given on the final totals screen. Sorry for any confusion. Hopefully the next round will be a lot simpler.

I am ok with lower score. I read the rules of posting scores after playing. I will give it a go once more and I will keep in mind to take a screenshot just before the end. :-)

Man I need video recordings of people playing this game to try and get the high scores. I want to taste the frustration of having to play this for more than 5 minutes

It's the final day of this round, and it looks like capehorn has given up trying to catch John.

Tomorrow we play Rainbow Islands and Gemini Wing.

This round is over!

Quite an easy platformer turned out to be quite popular, with 19 players, with most of them managing to beat it.

John once again proved unforgiving in terms of wins, and he is the clear favourite once again, even this early in the season.

1st - john4p
2nd - pasquale
3rd - aca0808

Next we play Rainbow Islands, the fourth time in the competition (although I only saw 2018), and another brand new game for us, the Shoot Em Up Gemini Wing.
