darthkur Posted July 5, 2010 Share Posted July 5, 2010 (edited) Welcome to the Enchanted Forest. Everything has a magical glow about it, brimming with mystical powers, even a lowly twig laying about on the ground. This is a good thing because you are going to need all the help you can get. There's evil lurking about. Glowing, malevolent eyes peer at you between the mushrooms that grow in towering abundance. Unfortunately it's not just the local fungus that is extraordinarily large but the insects as well and they're hungry. Carnivorous centipedes, deadly spiders, venomous fleas and poisonous scorpions are all on the prowl and you must defeat them if you ever wish the leave this wonderland alive. 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. Also, no continues. Only games begun at the beginning count.

roadrunner Posted July 18, 2010 Share Posted July 18, 2010 I hope Mr. Darthkur is OK. He hasn't put the game polls up for the 5200 and 7800 HSC's yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atarifever Posted July 18, 2010 Share Posted July 18, 2010 I hope Mr. Darthkur is OK. He hasn't put the game polls up for the 5200 and 7800 HSC's yet. Or updated the list for this one. Summer vaccation? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atariksi Posted July 18, 2010 Share Posted July 18, 2010 80142 FYI - the Twin-Galaxies record. I guess not too many people play this game or know how to play. I just played my first few times on A7800: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zoyx Posted July 18, 2010 Share Posted July 18, 2010 I guess not too many people play this game or know how to play. I just played my first few times on A7800: When this came up in the 2600 HSC, I came in 8th with a similar score. So the goal is to put my score in 8th place here. Get to work fellas!

Atarifever Posted July 19, 2010 Share Posted July 19, 2010 (edited) A little better: 42,068 For the record, I know how one is supposed to play this game. It's just like how I know how one is supposed to get good scores in Asteroids. It's just, I find that whole "set up the playfield" style of play boring.

darthkur Posted July 21, 2010 Author Share Posted July 21, 2010 That's it for this round. Congrats to atariksi for his monumental score. I hope everyone had fun with Centipede and I apologize for the lateness of these updates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
