CGQuarterly Posted August 26, 2008 Share Posted August 26, 2008 I'm glad to see that the HSC is back. I wish that I had noticed it in time for Ice Climber, but oh well. I've been working on Kid Niki but I want to keep going before I submit a score. Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bubufubu Posted January 8, 2015 Share Posted January 8, 2015 427,600 I accessed a lot of bonus stages, which helps for points. There's also these cloud icons on several stages that give you a white gi, which let you take a hit without dying. It makes the game easier to beat.

bubufubu Posted September 22, 2020 Share Posted September 22, 2020 1,099,100 (Played according to the rules on Twin Galaxies) https://www.twitch.tv/videos/732517002 Odd story behind this one. Nearly three weeks ago, another user on YouTube posted a link to a recent Kid Niki score of his on an unrelated video of mine...twice. I don't know the guy and have never communicated with him. He just randomly decided to drop links to his Kid Niki score on one of my Batman videos. This irked me a bit. I watched his run (which was labeled a WR, of course). A couple of days later, I decided to beat his score. I was fortunate to succeed on my second attempt. Soon after I uploaded it to YouTube, a bunch of mean spirited comments from two other accounts were posted and deleted. Maybe I should have just ignored him.
