+therealbountybob Posted February 28, 2016 Share Posted February 28, 2016 (edited) River Raid What a great start to Season 13! 4 rounds and 4 of the best games I'll update this post more tomorrow night as it's late! Start on Bridge 1. If you missed any previous rounds just join in or post late scores. I'll updated the current standings later in the week Such a great game I don't see why some people think it's little more than a 2600 port, perhaps you have played both and want to comment? Maybe the 2600 game is an outstanding effort? It's rated a lowly 7.7 on atarimania but for me it's a clear 10 HSC standard scoring. Bonus points 1. For setting new HSC record [scalak: 129,860] 1pt 2. Players outside the top 5 only - Highest score on 1st man 1pt 3. Shoot only the bridges on game 1 - Lowest score with a maximum 20 bridges. Top 5 players in one challenge for 1pt, everyone else in another for 1pt. Fandal XEX Atarimania Info Bonus Game: Jakub Husak's River Raid 2K11 I hoped this might have some different layouts but I think it's just the graphics. Well have 2 separate tables: Top players play on Bridge 20 otherwise start on Bridge 1 Fandal XEX Have fun, and go easy on the beer when flying! Round closes Sunday 13th March 10pm UK Time Edited March 9, 2016 by therealbountybob Revised Bonus Challenges Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dope Posted February 28, 2016 Share Posted February 28, 2016 Great timing! I've just finished my River Raid training round! Score: 206880 Not the best one, but I will try to improve over the next couple of days. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NO TRAINING, in fact you can do un-training where you play left handed Heck of a score If you get bored I would be interested in you playing my game Ramp Rage and telling me what you think (both on Normal and Expert). I wanted to do something for abbuc if I get time. Edited February 28, 2016 by therealbountybob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wanted to do something for abbuc if I get time. Guess what? I'm left handed. And sure, why not, I can play Ramp Rage.

McKong Posted February 29, 2016 Share Posted February 29, 2016 Great timing! I've just finished my River Raid training round! Score: 206880 Not the best one, but I will try to improve over the next couple of days. Wow, that's a crazy score. I remember last time we played this I played a lot and only managed 127k. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McKong Posted February 29, 2016 Share Posted February 29, 2016 Bob, I was thinking. Why don't you limit the main game bonuses that you set to players outside the top three for each round? This way the bonuses don't just go to the same players that win the round. It will give something for the people further down the table to fight for if they feel that winning the round is beyond them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marius Posted March 5, 2016 Share Posted March 5, 2016 It's a nice game, although it takes a while before it really gets challenging, and then I die. So it is hard to practice that. I am not sure, but I thought it was faster on my 2600... have to dig the 2600 up and check it out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marius Posted March 5, 2016 Share Posted March 5, 2016 (edited) Some Improvement... Bride 26 is a hard one.... When you go too slow you have collision with a white plane, when you go too fast you crash on the rocks... Great game, good choice! 45460 - Bridge 26 Edit: fixed typo Edited March 5, 2016 by ProWizard 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+therealbountybob Posted March 5, 2016 Author Share Posted March 5, 2016 I'm back! 91,810 reached bridge 40 1st man challenge 10,340 (bridge 7) Turn the sound UP for River Raid; a satisfying game to play Thanks for the info JK I'll have a go on RR 2K11 later Good feedback McKong for any bonus games was thinking something like players in the current HSC top 10 (Or the top few players) battle for one and those outside can go for another Guess what? I'm left handed. And sure, why not, I can play Ramp Rage. Just tell me where to download it. Ahah! I'll have to check the HSC rules about left handed players!!! Looks Like McKong and Orpheus will be your challengers for this round, some great scores guys Dope/Anyone else wanting to give me some feedback - Ramp Rage is here: Ramp Rage (v1.2) has finally arrived Now I'd better update the current standings and do a RR table!
