toymailman Posted July 30, 2008 Share Posted July 30, 2008 Some new scores to post for me! Popeye 128 Super Cobra 74 P.T. Barnum's Acrobats 1337 (didn't know this one rolls at 1k; seems a bit early for a "roll" score) Demon Attack 14,945 The Demon Attack port is pretty good. It has some interesting gameplay that adds a bit of different skill and strategy than the 2600 version. For maximum points you want to avoid hitting the top Demon until all the bottom ones are done. Otherwise it will end the round "early". I haven't made it all the way through a set yet. This score I made it to the second wave of popping eyeballs.

darthkur Posted July 30, 2008 Share Posted July 30, 2008 (edited) Demon Attack: 16,710 Thanks to the strategy suggestion by toymailman I can now get much better scores. Loony Balloon: (Game 0) 53 Is there a way to kill that damn bird? I'm obviously missing something with this game. Does anyone know if the instructions for it are available online and where is so? Amok! : 1,340 If I could've just a couple more robots. Edited July 30, 2008 by darthkur Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+thegoldenband Posted August 2, 2008 Share Posted August 2, 2008 (edited) Is there a way to kill that damn bird? I'm obviously missing something with this game. Does anyone know if the instructions for it are available online and where is so? I haven't seen instructions, but the big trick with this game is that once you reach roughly 64 points in a round, the balloon reduces its swing just enough for you to fit it through the exit corridor. (Or at least that's what I remember reading, and once I bore that in mind, I started doing much better.) Other than that, it's really just about letting go of the balloon in places where it can drift upward for a while. As you practice, you'll get a better sense of the rhythm of the birds, so that you won't be caught needing to grab the balloon just at the wrong time, i.e. when the bird appears. The game is basically a series of loops: let go of balloon, jump on rides, go back and grab balloon, and repeat, while dodging birds and the walls. When you're getting ready to exit, you can repeatedly catch and release to score extra points, until a bird appears -- you don't want to exit until you're sure a bird won't attack as you leave, since you have no chance of avoiding it. Also, the rides always let you off in specific places, so you can take advantage of that -- the slide, in particular, can be used as a way of getting from point A to point B quickly. Your guy moves very slowly, so it helps to get a boost. I've also seen some weird warps when leaving the carousel, especially in level 1, though that's probably a no-go for high score club purposes (I didn't use any, FWIW). Oh, and it's important to remember that you can't stay still while holding the balloon for more than a second or so -- if you do, the wind blows it away. I didn't know this for quite a while, and that damned wind was frustrating the hell out of me!

darthkur Posted August 2, 2008 Share Posted August 2, 2008 ^^^ Very interesting. I really haven't tried this one very much previously. I definitely is a challenge. I appreciate all of the information. Hopefully I can utilize it and give you a bit more of competition on this game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
