theking21083 Posted December 26, 2007 Share Posted December 26, 2007 (edited) NOTE: THIS WEEKS GAME HAS ENDED! Slither Game Info Slither is similar in nature to the hit arcade game Centipede. You control your snake as it slither's around the screen. Where this game differs greatly from Centipede is that you can shoot in 4 different directions at the same time to take out the baddies trying to hunt you down. The bad snakes hunting you down will appear from various angles on the screen, often several at a time. The game was bundled with Coleco's Roller Controller and can't be played without it. -This game was suggested by: theking21083 -Skill level: 1 Challenge -None HSC Info -Post your scores in this thread and every couple of days I will update the leaderboard. -The cutoff for posting scores will be the following Wednesday at 2:00 A.M.

theking21083 Posted December 26, 2007 Author Share Posted December 26, 2007 Sorry for the delay. The internet on the island was down for the past few days so I couldn't put up a poll or update anything. We had a blizzard from 23-24 so we are knee deep in snow right now. Some places it goes up to my waist. I hope you guys enjoy this weeks HSC.

chuckwalla Posted December 27, 2007 Share Posted December 27, 2007 Nice spinoff of Centipede that works awesome with the Roller Controller. Haven't played this in a while but nothing like a limbo week to break out some different titles. Here's a first go...

Mister VCS Posted December 31, 2007 Share Posted December 31, 2007 (edited) Sorry, but the leaderboard isn't correct. 7 points for the poor Mister VCS for place 5 (correct), but 18 points for RJ for place 4 (instead of 8 ) ???

Just make sure to keep on competing in future HSC games. Yeah I had fun - not my favourite game but quite neat being able to move all over the screen. This is the first time I ever really tried to play the game seriously so was actually quite pleased with my score. My fingers got very sore from manically hammering the fire button though.

RJ Posted March 22, 2008 Share Posted March 22, 2008 I dont have any trakball CV games, but I do have an Atari trakball (w/ DB9 pin plug that fits the CV). Could I use that trakball for CV Roller Controller games?
