+DamonicFury Posted September 16, 2019 Share Posted September 16, 2019 Welcome to round eighteen of this 5200 HSC season! Jungle Hunt tied the poll with Popeye, but won the coin flip afterwards. Play using the default settings. Emulation is fine, as are custom controls. Pics preferred, but not required except for HSC wins and records. The current record was set by darthkur with 43,270 points. Bust it if you can for a bonus point.

Voluntary abstinence of internet and TV (except watching the daily news) can be very relaxing.

Cobra Kai Posted September 22, 2019 Share Posted September 22, 2019 36,020 This game is about as straightforward as it can get. There's no scoring techniques really, it's just an endurance test, the farther you get the more you will score.

Cobra Kai Posted September 30, 2019 Share Posted September 30, 2019 I couldn't improve my score and I really tried. I can't find any consistency with this game. There were a few times that I couldn't even get past the first vine stage! The furthest I got into the game was the 3rd boulder round. One time I made it to the 3rd round with all my lives, and proceeded to lose 3 guys on the vines. I'm not very good with the monkeys. Also, most of the time, it doesn't seem worth it to go after the crocodiles, since the bonus timer is where the bulk of your score comes from, better to play it safe. There's a really odd mechanism for the scoring of the boulders. On the big ones that you can duck under, the scoring seems backwards. So, jumping over it grants 200 points, but ducking under it only scores 100, and even worse, running under it scores only 50 points. Uhm, so that is in order of difficulty, jumping being the easiest to do, scores the most points, while the insanely hard running underneath scores 50.

+Cafeman Posted September 30, 2019 Share Posted September 30, 2019 I kind of hate this game. I did play a few rounds but never got around to posting a score.
