I've got a plan for this week.

1)First beat the game with BB settings.

2)Change the allien difficult and beat the game.

3)Put both settings to expert level and beat the game.

 

Nice plan, now I just need to pass that horrible 5th maze...

Fortunately (for me), this game wound up being a bit less time-demanding than I remember. Or maybe it's that it's somehow still fresh from that last time we played this.

 

First, a run to wipe the rust off. Died at maze 5 with 263. Then, a successful full run which gives a 100 point bonus, total score 393. And then I decided to up the difficulty settings to A/A; victory on that setting netted me a 200 point bonus. 546 is the score to beat so far! I'm going to assume that having A/B or B/A difficulty would be 150 points, but don't quote me on that.

 

P.S. I really freaking hate those deadly slices of American cheese.

At this stage, every point counts, so, here's my huge improvement from 277: 278!

I can get to the 5th maze almost all the time, but I usually only get there with 1 or 2 lives because I rush around and forget about those stupid sliding walls. I have to slow down. I want to see the winner screen for myself! :)

Yes! I made it through on B/B settings! New high score: 405!

I got to the final maze with my last life. I finished the 5th maze with 0 time on the clock (I made sure to take my time.)

 

I'll have a few more runs and get that 5th maze down pat before I start fiddling with the difficulty settings. :)

I beated the game with A/A settings.

And now I'm going for the points and more fun.

 

Also for the first time I finished the 6th maze earning some points for remaining time... After 3 endings I probably can find the shortest path. There's a map in an old thread, but I didn't want to use it.
