Carey85 Posted December 6, 2009 Share Posted December 6, 2009 Yeah, I'm pretty sure they should've just named this game "Developer Hates You." My hat's off to anyone who can make it past stage 5... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carey85 Posted December 7, 2009 Share Posted December 7, 2009 I'll give it another shot later. I got my score at 4:30 this morning after drinking for several hours. I think I was in the proverbial "zone" when I was playing, though, so I probably won't do much better... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zoyx Posted December 7, 2009 Share Posted December 7, 2009 Trying to understand why so much flicker. Just as much going on here as in River Raid. I guess they didn't know the tricks. Looked like they tried to do a Zaxxon without the 3D. Nice idea, but lousy follow-through. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zoyx Posted December 9, 2009 Share Posted December 9, 2009 18420 - Nope, no clue how to get past that really fast wave. The only idea I have is to get lucky in killing a guy, then hide in that row. Rinse/repeat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
