roadrunner Posted March 5, 2020 Share Posted March 5, 2020 12,660 i had to take before i used up all my lives my Beamrider cart is very fussy. Keep having to clean it get it to load up and wedge a folded piece of paper between the cart and cart slot. Had a 19k score but game crashed Quote Link to comment https://forums.atariage.com/topic/302719-5200-oe-hsc-challenge-032020-beamrider/#findComment-4474488 Share on other sites More sharing options...
