darthkur Posted January 18, 2010 Share Posted January 18, 2010 (edited) As a professional ornithologist, you're thrilled to find out that some rare South American hornbills have nested in your "old yolk tree." But while the hornbills are out feeding, a group of mischievous bluebirds, owls, and snakes begin raiding their nests and stealing eggs. Horrified, you get out your slingshot and begin hitting the marauding creatures. But you have to be careful. If you hit an egg-carrying bird, it drops the egg and you have to act fast to catch it before it hits the ground and return it to a nest. At the same time, you have to watch for snakes that may be sneaking up to nests and gobbling eggs. If you can protect the eggs long enough, you can take them to another nesting site. But watch out, egg-stealing creatures are everywhere! Emulators are fine as is whatever controller you feel the most comfortable with. Screenshots are great but not mandatory. Please do not use any cheat/hack options. These include auto-fire, unlimited lives, invincibility, etc. Settings: Skill Level - Easy (default) Contest ends on: 2-1-10 at 1:00am EST.

darthkur Posted January 26, 2010 Author Share Posted January 26, 2010 43,600 Definitely a frantic and challenging game. I sure wish more people were getting into it. It did have the majority votes by the way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darthkur Posted January 27, 2010 Author Share Posted January 27, 2010 47,600 Did a little bit better. Those snakes sure do get moving fast in the latter levels. Best to transfer any eggs off the bottom to the upper nests. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

atomickneedrop Posted January 29, 2010 Share Posted January 29, 2010 Very glad we picked it too, to be honest, it gets very little play otherwise. Thats the best thing about the HSC for me - it makes me take out games I might otherwise be neglecting. My new high score is 31,000 You guys are putting up some great scores! I'm glad we're playing this game, i wanted to see how good i am at it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thursday83 Posted January 30, 2010 Share Posted January 30, 2010 Very glad we picked it too, to be honest, it gets very little play otherwise. Thats the best thing about the HSC for me - it makes me take out games I might otherwise be neglecting. My new high score is 31,000 You guys are putting up some great scores! I'm glad we're playing this game, i wanted to see how good i am at it. I hear that, loud and clear. Definitely haven't put this one in the machine for a long while until the high score challenge came up. I'll try to post something, Christ......but this game has frustrated me with all aspects of control, I won't comment about the gun non-option, so here goes nothing, again. I'll never touch 63000+ like the top guy, holy cows......... And I second his statement - the best thing about the HSC is that it makes you take out games that you probably wouldn't play otherwise, and makes you enjoy it because there is competition. Kudos to Darthkur for making these happen! gg allin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
