+DamonicFury Posted April 6, 2020 Share Posted April 6, 2020 Welcome to the seventh round of this 5200 HSC season! Kaboom! was tied with three other games with a single vote each, and Kaboom! won the resulting die roll. 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 our OE HSC moderator zylon with 26,958 points. Bust it if you can for a bonus point. (Good luck!!!) The ROM can be found here: http://www.atarimania.com/game-atari-5200-kaboom_s11756.html Round ends Sunday, April 19th, 2020 @9pm EST Standings: zylon - 2,352 rubeon - 1,891 Mangia-Boy - 1,842 Cafeman - 605 roadrunner - 239 jblenkle - 103 1 Quote Link to comment https://forums.atariage.com/topic/304967-5200-hsc-season-13-round-7-kaboom/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mangia-Boy Posted April 6, 2020 Share Posted April 6, 2020 788 played with a mouse. I should go to the attic and search for paddles. Quote Link to comment https://forums.atariage.com/topic/304967-5200-hsc-season-13-round-7-kaboom/#findComment-4502487 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mangia-Boy Posted April 8, 2020 Share Posted April 8, 2020 Still using my mouse. But now I achieved to get an Activision patch. With a score of 1800 or more you become a member of the bucket brigade.

rubeon Posted April 14, 2020 Share Posted April 14, 2020 1,891 which is about as much as I'm willing to invest in this hateful little game Playing this with 35+ year old CX52's is about as close to waterboarding as I'd like to get in life Quote Link to comment https://forums.atariage.com/topic/304967-5200-hsc-season-13-round-7-kaboom/#findComment-4509276 Share on other sites More sharing options...

+Cafeman Posted April 19, 2020 Share Posted April 19, 2020 605. Not easy in emulation. Need the CX52! Quote Link to comment https://forums.atariage.com/topic/304967-5200-hsc-season-13-round-7-kaboom/#findComment-4515062 Share on other sites More sharing options...
+DamonicFury Posted April 20, 2020 Author Share Posted April 20, 2020 Congratulations to OE moderator and Missile Command master zylon for catching the most bombs! I’m sorry to hear folks had so much trouble emulating this one... like it’s 2600 parent, I guess this is a game that just plays way better with original equipment. Star Trek is up next, I don’t anticipate any similar problems with that title. Final Standings: zylon - 2,352 +11 rubeon - 1,891 +10 Mangia-Boy - 1,842 +9 Cafeman - 605 +8 roadrunner - 239 +7 jblenkle - 103 +6 1 Quote Link to comment https://forums.atariage.com/topic/304967-5200-hsc-season-13-round-7-kaboom/#findComment-4515277 Share on other sites More sharing options...
