Maniac! is very hard, if anyone beats HSC record 470 points they will get 2pts - now we know (?) it's a limited number of screens perhaps it can be beaten?!

Played a couple of rounds with slxjr and managed 51.100 playing two-player (not sure if that counts). We reached Dungeon 9 on that run!

He managed a very respectable 50.400 playing alone:

slxjr played with a Saitek gamepad.

Hey Stephan :thumbsup:

 

 

Wizard of Wor After a few goes took things a bit more steadily and made 120,800 which I risked saving onto the original disk.

Forgot to say on my XE if you boot the disk it says "remove cartridge" even with Option held but if you then keep Option held and press reset to warm boot it works just fine!

 

Played more Robot Dungeon - possibly the worst of the bunch due to the slow firing and again missed the score :thumbsdown:

 

Escape from Syntron - not bad we'll play for Pretzels eaten - I had 5 with about 75K:

post-19705-0-08913400-1522184597.jpg

The rooms are mapped something like this: (pretzel stops in bold)

 

Top Wall

*0? 1 2 3 4 5 6 Right wall *start

7 8 9 10 11 12 13

14 15 16 17 18 19 20

21 22 23 24 25 26 27

28 29 30 31 32 33 34

to get to the red rooms below you need the 3 pretzels above.

35 36 37 38...

another block of 5 rows of 7 rooms. Pretzels in 44 and 59 and ???!

appears to be bottom

then you might either escape ot their might be more?

 

Round 6 poll OPEN :)

...Kill the Heretic ;-)

I'm not the biggest fan of this game ;-(

 

However, 41,700

If you're playing in 2 player mode they are probably not coming after you as much as they should ;)

(if you can't use stick 2 you could kill off the other player first)

Round 6 poll OPEN :)

Escape from Syntron - ​ I managed to find 5 objects. after 3 the screen went red so maybe I went up a level? 10400

I think it's red on the rooms below - perhaps you have to collect the pretzels above to get to this bit...

 

Maniac! - wtf 60!

1 shot per robot on the first screen, 2 on the 2nd.. same positions each time, line up your arm ahead of entering a screen.

 

Zurk - 1630

play this more so I can play again ;)

 

Green Goblin 2460

 

Why does the dude stop firing after a while? Randomly I got a bonus when I was playing. I went back to the same screen the next go and didn't get the bonus, weird

 

Robot Dungeon - ?

GG - I think you have a limited number of shots per level - you get th3e bonus for collecting all the things even if you've not shot all the critters

RD - probably there is more too it, but it's hard going.

 

Hope you did good RT, will sneak "Tell" in again for a bonus at some time :thumbsup:

WOW got bluecat to have a couple of goes, 20K then a pretty decenty 27,900 and I hardly shot her at all :D

post-19705-0-41422100-1522519284.jpg

Had a load more goes on Zurk but didn't improve (2890 best this time)

 

Green Goblins 26,600 not a bad game, but movement really slows down as you get this far.

post-19705-0-81955000-1522519278.jpg

Escape from Syntron 12000ish - if you get the three pretzels in the top block of rooms you can access the next block (red backgrounds) I got two here so a total of 5. Might have another attempt to finish this, it's like a simplified shamus the structure is fairly open and not too maze like :thumbsup:

I'll update the map on post #55 above :)

 

Maniac somehow managed 510, get at their feet :grin:

Green Goblins - 6700 pts

 

I had four (!) lives, then the footsteps caught me and it was immediate game over? Or perhaps I missed some important detail. Anyway, trbb beats me by far on this bonus game.

That thing comes on like the evil otto or the shadow - you can out run it to an exit - I didn't realise it's an immediate game over but that makes sense.

 

Played more Escape from Syntron this morning, after you complete the red rooms there are a green set to go at, it gets faster this game is pretty good.

If anyone wants this round extending a day or two please post - some of these bonus games are pretty good :thumbsup:
