+therealbountybob Posted March 22, 2019 Author Share Posted March 22, 2019 Before I read the Caverns of Callisto stuff, thought I'd play it again, that turned into about 10 goes! Now that I had the idea that each level would have a key and a secret wall trying to whiz through the levels makes it more fun to play, didn't complete the 2nd Cavern but did get the key somewhere and think I know where to go with it! best score 16,320 (most scores 14-15K) at some point the score jumps up on the 2nd cavern Press Space when it says game over to restart otherwise will load the intro screens! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McKong Posted March 22, 2019 Share Posted March 22, 2019 Yeah trying to get that game started is confusing 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+therealbountybob Posted March 23, 2019 Author Share Posted March 23, 2019 Yeah trying to get that game started is confusing thanks to graywest for the find - Pix's Origin Adventures is fantastic, has all about Cavern's of Callisto and the other Origin games. I've played lots more before reading this, all about 16k - can reopen the tunnel between the first two stages - looks like a map is needed. This should be right up your street McKong sort of Starquake but less big! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carlsson Posted March 23, 2019 Share Posted March 23, 2019 Press Space when it says game over to restart otherwise will load the intro screens! Aha, that is the way to start it! Caverns of Callisto - 1680 pts (not very thrilled about it) Collision Course - 24860 pts (quite fond about it) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm still exploring Caverns of Callisto but might have another bash at the crabs! Shall we go into Jon Williams' new game Baby Berks 4 (I'm itching to play it) with the 10 liners to keep it compay for the next round?

carlsson Posted March 25, 2019 Share Posted March 25, 2019 Baby Berks or Berks Four? The latter requires a 64K machine, which I would assume is not an issue among us. Sure we could try the 10 Liners as well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ok it's Berks 4 + 10 liners for the next round :thumbsup: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McKong Posted March 27, 2019 Share Posted March 27, 2019 I had a quick go on Carverns Of Callisto, this morning using the map. With half an eye on the map I did worse! I'll have another go tonight 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+therealbountybob Posted March 27, 2019 Author Share Posted March 27, 2019 Managed a couple of Improvements, not quite enough to unseat McKong Alpha Shield 103,975 (20) Carnival 34,905 Caverns Of Callisto 16,320 Collision Course 50,470 Crab Nebula 11,045 (6) Escape 265 (19) tried mapping Callisto but that was an epic fail, I did try and get all 8 thingys and had sight of #7 when I croaked it. You still have the key when you reach level 2 (so you can get back to level 1) so I wonder if there is another one somwhere... not "cheating" by watching the videos yet! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McKong Posted March 28, 2019 Share Posted March 28, 2019 Carnival 37605 Alpha Shield 144900 level 25 Escape 740 Caverns Of Callisto 16160 Made it through the secret door to the 2nd cavern Crab Nebula 13460 Collision Course 26780 I was trying to work out the scoring on Escape. The green things are worth the same as the round number or double. To get good scores save collecting the green things until later rounds. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carlsson Posted March 28, 2019 Share Posted March 28, 2019 Yes, I try to float past the first ~10 screens or so before I pick up the green items on Escape. However sometimes you may find them becoming unreachable so I suppose it is a decision to make how long you can wait. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
