Dope Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 (edited) Dope if you want to hit Zybex 3 I'll try and catch you up soon Ok... this is some kind of a sick joke. This game is more than impossible. Why? 1. I've killed 9 bosses on stage 10 (if I remember correctly) and another boss with shield killed me instantly. 2. No extra lives, even one (except for some glithed flying thing that gave me 3 extra lives). 3. Weapon upgrades are VERY rare 4. And... well... somebody screwed something hard: 5. "You think that you are safe after collecting token at the end of the level? Think again while we shoot extra fast and unpredictable enemies at you" This game is glitched, hard as hell and it's not challenging it's insane.

Nothing to thank me for, Jason. To be sincere, I',m due to write an article about this second round. BTW, a long time ago I wrote a complete guide to the game :http://atariteca.blogspot.pe/2010/04/zybex.html And yes, there's an unlimited lifes loader mentioned in the article. Hope none would be using this feature... - Y - 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spookt Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 Wow - I used to play this a lot and I don't remember it being this hard! 30,950 after a couple of tries. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yautja Posted February 7, 2016 Share Posted February 7, 2016 Check this out everyone there is loads of Zybex detail (has language translation on page) I've just posted about this round. And guess what? Ran into a chilean forum with declarations from Sergio Boassi -who hacked Zybex to Zybex 2; and also did Draconus 2 and 3.

+therealbountybob Posted February 7, 2016 Author Share Posted February 7, 2016 Keep getting to around 100K on Zybex but losing it! Another session later when I have calmed down Zyclops has some very nice levels - the game very much reminds me of Jumpman 6,140 Level 5.

+therealbountybob Posted February 8, 2016 Author Share Posted February 8, 2016 TRBB, are you going to play Zybex III? I'm asking because I don't know if I should pass or start rivalry. I thought I was going to finish Zybex today but failed and failed again, and again! From what you posted looks like the game is flawed but I'll have a few goes the week Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yautja Posted February 8, 2016 Share Posted February 8, 2016 Cleared all levels, but got killed by the boss in 11th. Hope I can make sometime during the week to try to make into the "hidden" levels. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McKong Posted February 8, 2016 Share Posted February 8, 2016 53700 slowly improving. Not sure there will be time for a decent play of the other games Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+therealbountybob Posted February 8, 2016 Author Share Posted February 8, 2016 Nearly finished Zybex - level 16 today and more importantly a challenge for Dope as I scored 170,100 Zyclops is pretty good but I can't figure out the "Atari logo screen" level 5 - can do it but not without terminating 2 lives? Zybex 2 is hard (29,950) - they've cut down the supply of rail gun icons and I like to use this for the end of level guys as you can see their shots coming (another trbb hint!)

+therealbountybob Posted February 8, 2016 Author Share Posted February 8, 2016 60700 If I remember correctly, I came to Lvl 6 (I simply go straight through). We're just going for score now (on all the games). For me Zybex Lv7 is the killer, so if you have a few men get it out of the way early. Repetition is key; Zybex has a good learning curve but it is intense to play Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
