Jagman Posted April 26, 2012 Share Posted April 26, 2012 I remember getting pretty far in this game on the Genesis, but never on the Jag.. controls always felt way too slippery or something. I'll try and give it a go though in a few days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, framerate problems make this game difficult for me to play at later stages (primarily the waterfall stages, that's where it starts to skip a lot).

jblenkle Posted April 28, 2012 Share Posted April 28, 2012 Pitfall - 5,030 Well, here's a pitiful score...Is this version a lot harder than other versions??? I seem to get stuck at the same point every time I try to play - in between two trees with joining branches below. Can't figure a way to jump or climb out of there.

Austin Posted April 28, 2012 Author Share Posted April 28, 2012 There's going to be branches to jump on, a rope, or something else like that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jblenkle Posted April 28, 2012 Share Posted April 28, 2012 Well, I thought there was one of those stretchy things you jump and grab onto, but it seems to disappear after doing it a couple of times. I don't recall the other versions I've played doing that. There's going to be branches to jump on, a rope, or something else like that.

Austin Posted April 29, 2012 Author Share Posted April 29, 2012 I think I have heard about that happening. Hasn't happened to me, but I'm pretty sure I've heard about it before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jblenkle Posted April 30, 2012 Share Posted April 30, 2012 I've gotten a little further in the game, but the stretchy thing does disappear so you pretty much have to play perfect to keep going. I can't imagine it does this on the real cartridge, so I'm guessing either the rom is faulty or the emulator. I think I have heard about that happening. Hasn't happened to me, but I'm pretty sure I've heard about it before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jblenkle Posted April 30, 2012 Share Posted April 30, 2012 Well, seemingly, if you are able to run around a lot without trapping yourself where you can't get back to them, they sometimes reappear...or when you lose a life...an added challenge to the game!!!

Jagman Posted May 1, 2012 Share Posted May 1, 2012 263,448 agh! so many instant death parts towards the later levels. the key to this game for me is to really take your time with the levels, not rushing at all, and find as many 1ups as you can. lots of secrets in this game! gonna give the game another go tomorrow probably. trying to 1cc it.

Exactly. If you take your time, it's not as bad as it seems. Lots of secrets as well if you search them out (did you find the various locations of the 2600 Pitfall yet? I don't think it gives you extra points, but still. ). Supposedly you can max out the score in a single run in this (999,999). Both Atardi (don't think he comes around here anymore) and Doctor Clu have done it in the past. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boog Posted May 5, 2012 Share Posted May 5, 2012 Made it a little further... 21320 Might try once more tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Austin Posted May 5, 2012 Author Share Posted May 5, 2012 I am going to try to get a score in today or tomorrow as well. I do actually want to play this game, but I've been busy the last two weeks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jagman Posted May 5, 2012 Share Posted May 5, 2012 I just realized we're playing with continues. Wow.. that would have saved me a lot of replaying - haha. I'll hopefully get another shot tomorrow - also been really busy. I want to finish this damn game (for the first time ever) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Austin Posted May 5, 2012 Author Share Posted May 5, 2012 Nope, no continues. I let the time lapse at the continue screen (while hooking the Jag into my capture device when I died so I could grab a screenshot) and it took me to the Game Over screen. Glad I was at least able to capture it before it disappeared. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
