29,685 pts.  I've always liked this game, but some of the deaths are horseshit sometimes.  Lost two lives at this part because the guy doesn't grab the rope (but ends up jumping past the rope and into the water).

 

Reminds me of my dad saying "What is this happy horseshit?"

Wow I'm really falling for this game again, 37 years later!  I keep progressing!  32,236.  Because of lack of free time not sure I'll be able to top that but I keep getting better and finally have my timing down on those damn crocs and just remembered you can land on their heads with the mouth open!

I've just played a few hours of Pitfall and even though it's a very repetitive game, man that was a BLAST!  I finally got into the zone a bit, mad at myself for failing on a few routine places, such as the screenshot shows (really?  Dying by the flame??).  It does make me wish we could get some additional details on our achievements such as how many treasures we collected, which treasures, how many screens we explored, etc.  Still, considering the era this game was made it, it's an achievement then, and a super fun time now.  I finished it back in the day and I know after today I could still get there given the available time. I'm not sure I could collect ALL the treasures though but I know I could at least last until the counter gets to zero.

This competition and I guess the Arrival of Phoenix are the main reasons why I’ve been playing so much colecovision games of late

 

Pitfall is surprising me, even after yesterday’s deadline I put in at least another 90 min into it and bettered my score (66,8xx range I think).  I don’t know if I have the patience to finish it completely but I’m going to get to at least the time out screen.  Yesterday I was at 8:30min left with no lives lost, got a phone call, paused it but when I returned I was out of “the zone” and promptly lost two lives within about 30 seconds lol

 

wonderful game

I played till 2 am to get my score because I was so into it haha. I have always loved the Colecovision but this definitely has pushed me to pick up the controller and play games I don't normally consider.
