As Sam, your goal is to make it to the top of each building and grab the bag of money awaiting you. Sam climbs upward on the girders and must avoid both the enemies that crawl and the various object being thrown down at him. Sam can move left and right on each girder platform and can either jump over an enemy or squish them.

Squish 'Em - 74,460

Haven't played this game (before the contest) in quite awhile, but am finding differences in playing between the emulator and on a real ColecoVision. It's easier to run up the score on the emulator, but nearly impossible to jump over some of the larger enemies. Just the opposite on the CV...can jump over almost everything, but can't get as high of a score.

"Keep jumping over the creature?"

 

Just about. If I try to just jump over the unsquished creatures I end up stubbing my toe(ouch) eventually.

Jumping over the squished creatures is the secret. You must squish a creature in between two of the squares and then quickly jump back and forth over it. On lower levels, I can do this about five times and then move up the ladder. You get 200 points each time you jump over the squished creature. In this case, another 1,000 points per creature. Make your way up doing this to each creature and you can get 40,000 to 50,000 points this way on just the first pass through! It takes just a little practice to jump back and forth a few times. On later levels you can only jump back and forth three times and then two before the creature comes back to life but you can really rack up points this way.
