It will begin NOW and last through Sunday, August 9th. Your valiant and humble moderators have courageously selected three games of wacky cartoon madness!!

(Scoring MAX points or beyond is considered ROLLAGE)

(Pics of scores over 98% MAX points are sufficient to show ROLLAGE)

Please assume you have to follow the game difficulty and mode for the playing week/s.

HIGHSCORE.COM CURRENT RECORD FOR 2600 OBELIX - Can you beat that?

1,000,000 points (Rolled the Score) by me, oyamafamily (Emulation)

[oyamafamily]

NOTE TO MODERATORS:

When I post videos of the entire gameplay - Bugs Bunny and Roadrunner (which are trademarks of Warner Bros.) - I will use Facebook exceptionally.

To do this, I will select "Public" and provide links to watch. On Stella Emulator, I will set Volume to Zero when I play Bugs Bunny and Roadrunner.

Reason: avoid possible inconveniences related to copyright on my YouTube account, which I'm normally using to post videos.

Road Runner

Game: 1BB

Score: 33,700

 

 

I will kick it off with a warmup benchmark with Road Runner A few years back i remember there was some amazing scores on RR, see if i can keep up this time...

[Atarian7]

Too bad I sold my copy of Bugs Bunny. I scored over a million on it playing for 10 hours. lol

[karokoenig]

Getting started with the two games I have to emulate. Got Obelix, but need to dig out the cart and fire up my rack.

 

Roadrunner: 35,400.

 

Bugs Bunny: 520.

[oyamafamily]

After staying 5 weeks without posting scores in this HSC, I'm back with my Obelix score (I was playing Activision games; some of them was irresistible to play).

 

ROLLAGE IN OBELIX - GAME 1

SCORE: 1,410,730 (Rolled at 1:08:40 mark in the video below)

Bugs Bunny - 5000

 

That's enough of that. The difficulty doesn't ramp up enough, the scoring doesn't ramp up at all, and I stopped having never lost a guy.

 

Five thousand, ten points at a time, is enough.

 

I must have accidentally been on some kind of kid's level or training level or something. I don't know what happened.

 

In any event, I'm removing this score.

Road Runner: 58,100

My dad always used to tell me about how everyone always felt bad for Wile E. Coyote. Which was one of Chuck Jones's primary rules, is that the audience's sympathy must always remain with Wile E. Coyote.

Bugs Bunny: 450

I'm a real stinker at this one!

 

Obelix: 5,790

Got this mixed up with that Taz clone Asterix. Clever concept, just not well executed.

[karokoenig]

Made it far enough to see a between level animation of some kind in Bugs Bunny. Umm... yay..?

 

New score: 870.

[Mangia-Boy]

Roadrunner 30,700

[Spacey Invader]

19,140

 

 

This one's fun. Can't make heads or tails of Buggs, though. Good Lord, will I have to read the directions?

Participation points for Obelix. Very very little time, only minutes to fire up the console. And travelling in the next 5 days, so who knows if I find more time.

 

Obelix: 5,090.

Had to kill off my last few guys and leave for work.

Some notes about Bugs Bunny stages/levels:

 

You can tell what level you're on (usually) by the color of the ground where your score box appears.

Colors shown on Stella 4.6 emulator.

Day 1, Level 1:

If you can clear the three carrots and holes, then you get a new screen with a faster Elmer Fudd.
Day 1, Level 2:

And so on.
Day 1, Level 3:

 

Day 1, Level 4:

 

Day 1, Level 5:

 

Day 1, Level 6:

 

Day 1, Level 7:

 

Day 1, Level 8:

After 8 levels, you get to watch a brief intermission (like in Ms. Pac-Man).
Elmer resets to his slowest setting, and a new day begins.

 

Day 2, Level 1:

 

Day 2, Level 2:

 

Day 2, Level 3:

 

Day 2, Level 4*:

 

Day 2, Level 5*:

 

Day 2, Level 6*:

 

Day 2, Level 7:

 

Day 2, Level 8*:

* note that Days 4, 5, 6, and 8 all have black for their color.

 

Intermission again (same act), and back to Day 1.
