Follow the development and download the game (rev.4) from the Moon Patrol Redux thread here on atariage. The game might not be finished but we'll give it a go as it won the poll, I'm not bitter PLAY FROM THE START EACH TIME ON BEGINNER, IT SHOULD LEVEL UP AUTOMATICALLY LIKE THE ORIGINAL - NO PRACTISING ON THE HARDER SKILL LEVEL OR USING CONTINUES. Another short round ending Sunday 22nd December 10am UK time Thinking hats on for the season finale, suggestions here please.

STARBUG Posted December 12, 2019 Share Posted December 12, 2019 (edited) 41,450 (point b or c on level 2) Edit: Lost all 4 lives on the first part of point U. Little tanks shot the c**p out of me! Never actually played Moon Patrol before, though I remember looking at it in an Arcade somewhere and wishing I had more money to play it. This looks really good, though I've not seen the original A8 version for comparison. I don't know why, but I'm expecting a few sharks for this one, best of luck!

carlsson Posted December 13, 2019 Share Posted December 13, 2019 (edited) So are we playing rev 4 of this game? I saw that a rev 5 was mentioned at the end of November but no binary seems to have been posted yet. Just checking. Edit: Ok, I'll assume that is the most current version and the one I played...

+therealbountybob Posted December 14, 2019 Author Share Posted December 14, 2019 Really nice work guys Major criticism: the delay is slightly too long on the select/option key ! That's about it ;) Moon Patrol is the perfect HSC game, not too hard and enjoyable all round. Players may be surprised to know it's the most played HSC game in world history :D The only thing that would be great to see added (I'm assuming it's not been) is another skill level combining more of the features or just some other levels 37,900 41,950 44,850 through to Eish on Championship 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes a few more seconds at the end of game wouldn't go amiss, and showing scores on the title screen too perhaps? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

carlsson Posted December 16, 2019 Share Posted December 16, 2019 Minor improvement. I still don't get past the tanks at U, but I learned to drive faster and thus collect more bonus at the end of the previous levels.

I don't know if you've tried this, but I had to slow right own to a crawl initially to get past the tanks, but after a few times I got more comfortable and just fly through them now. Also, another thing I do, if you want this tip (stop reading if you don't): You don't need to shoot the tanks. I found it easier to shoot their bullets and jump over the tanks, though if you're trying the slow down method, you could just shoot everything, until you get used to it Dave 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
