+therealbountybob Posted November 9, 2019 Author Share Posted November 9, 2019 I'm usually using fingers for my calculations as pressing ctrl-c to launch Calendar 2000 is so much work! Briain also pre-occupied on my assembler programming but now I'm really in cold turkey afer releasing "Block On Legs: First Steps" it's a rare time when I'm not on a project. Just waiting for that idea to come for next years game! 1350 Have been playing a lot of Phantom, from always thinking that is was impossibleish to complete location 2 (thought I might have seen 3 but proabably not) I'm not giving up and have today got the pen and paper out and made some notes of the screens, completing "Ye Olde Inn" is not too hard but you need every drop of firepower to have a chance at "The Dungeon", not had enough to get that first screen boss and the charger pack. Got quite far this time and really for the odd missed shot might have got past this screen where I was camped out on 99% and no ammo hoping for the ghosts to get to the right and after 15 mins I decided to try and get past them but no joy as they all preferred to stayed leftwards! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deteacher Posted November 11, 2019 Share Posted November 11, 2019 (edited) Action Quest: Rank: Wizard Score 20/85 Time: 9:12 Lives remaining: 4 I think I figured out the scoring: I think the max score per level is 20 (meaning a total of 100 points if you got 20 points for each level.) The longer it takes you to complete a level, the lower the score for that level. So, the 20 means I got all 20 treasures. The 85 is the total for the game.

+therealbountybob Posted November 13, 2019 Author Share Posted November 13, 2019 Being seriously playing Phantom 1400 reached 3rd screen on Level 4 of the Dungeon, so close! Action Quest scored 11(/15?) stuck on "What to I do here" on level 3, beat the other screens. HELP!

Instructions on next post on same thread The Witching Hour, just about to tackle that one! [edit] It didn't take much tackling! Beat it with 2 guys left, it's logic is not so good! Probably more fun as a 2 player game Round 20 POLL OPEN Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+therealbountybob Posted November 17, 2019 Author Share Posted November 17, 2019 Phantom 1440 reached the final screen of The Dungeon, had 5 shots at the boss but needed another 5 at least. This round and the poll close at 10pm UK time tonight, round 20 will also be a catch-up and improve for games already played the season :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+therealbountybob Posted November 17, 2019 Author Share Posted November 17, 2019 Thanks for playing guys, Phantom is a tough game so much so I've decided to write about it in detail for the next Pro(c) Mag as it does take some work to get anywhere I took the win here. Action Quest still fun working out each screen, I will finish this in the catch-up next round (hopefully!) final tables PHANTOM 1st therealbountybob 1,440 12pts 2nd Deteacher 240 11pts 3rd carlsson 170 10pts 4th RedThunder 130 9pts 5th jblenkle 55 8pts 6th Mangia-Boy 25 7pts Action Quest 1st Wizard Deteacher 20/85 4pts 2nd Expert RedThunder 20/68 3pts 3rd ShoudHaveWrittenItDown therealbountybob 9/21 2pts 4th Amateur carlsson 8/30 1pt Bonus Challenge: Fastest Level 1 time: RedThunder 1:25 1pt The Witching Hour (BASIC) completed by Deteacher 1pt RedThunder 1pt trbb 1pt carlsson 1pt devwebcl 1pt 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
