+therealbountybob Posted June 13, 2016 Author Share Posted June 13, 2016 Hmmm.... Classic, yes? 1. Onslaught 2. Patrol Nighthawk One I did mean another couple of skill settings! but if anyone wants to play something similar then fire away for some bonus points. When Demon Attack was played in the Mega Space Blastathon round and we had skill 3 for the top players - I'll check the game out tonight between the football Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+therealbountybob Posted June 15, 2016 Author Share Posted June 15, 2016 Demon Attack has some nice graphics, great colours and animations, puts my new game to shame Level 1: 7,620 We'll have two bonus challenges for top players play on level 7 (the hardest one player mode) regular players have a bash on level 3 also. If you have a friend checkout level 8-10 as they alternate players mid go! Level 7: 5,370 1st post updated with bonus challenges Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+therealbountybob Posted June 16, 2016 Author Share Posted June 16, 2016 Level 1: 9,900 Demon Attack first tables ... I'll put the next poll on at the weekend, I think there's only roadrunner without one played from his 5 selections - we can make Ulf's berzerk the next bonus game so you can suggest one more main game if you wish rr 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+slx Posted June 18, 2016 Share Posted June 18, 2016 (edited) First attempt: 5380 6790 6860 (and one level farther) Starting at Level 3: 5370 (I am not sure if that was the right level as I had to press SELECT rather than OPTION to change anything and the level had shots that steered with the ship.)

(Atari 800 MacX in PAL mode with Saitek Gamepad) Level 1 for the main HSC round, level 3 for a bonus challenge (not for top players). Yes SELECT! Level 7 9,580 then I had a few goes on level 1... Once you figure a few things out it's not so hard afterall, you can leave the bottom firing demon until last! If you survive the double bar demons then you can build up your lives again. I think probably it doesn't get any harder... The real idea of the game is to "ride the wave" killing one of the bottom pair of single ones, then taking out one of the next one above before you kill the descender and so on - this would score more too. 41,030 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+therealbountybob Posted June 19, 2016 Author Share Posted June 19, 2016 Thanks for the good hint TRBB. Level 1: 74155 Level 7: 18325 I just had over 60K on level 7 but retired - the game does not get any harder so we'll call it a join win for anyone getting 50K on any skill level. With a bit more programming the game could be a bit tougher, it's too easy to pick up men - if one demon escapes they could have not given one and the other higher demons could be indestructable on later levels... not a bad game and probably a bit tougher on NTSC Let's see how the poll is going!

jk40001 Posted June 19, 2016 Share Posted June 19, 2016 Level 7: 100000+ It is easier for me than Level 1. In level 7 you can change direction of missiles and cleare the screen faster. Additionally, the difficulty does not increase after 1st round so I retired after 100k. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+therealbountybob Posted June 19, 2016 Author Share Posted June 19, 2016 trbb: we made a post stating the same at the same time:) OK We can start the next round a couple of days earlier (Friday?) and leave this one open until next Sunday. I'm working on my abbuc compo game (my 2nd game in assembler) using some code from my 2014 entry Ramp Rage. If anyone has any comments on Ramp Rage please post here as it might be useful to me (you don't have to be kind!) - you can also play it for a bonus point or two if you are wanting some extra HSC action Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
