+DamonicFury Posted July 12, 2021 Share Posted July 12, 2021 Welcome to the fourteenth round of the 14th 5200 HSC season! H.E.R.O. won the poll by two votes. Play using the default settings. Emulation is fine, as are custom controls. Pics preferred, but not required except for HSC wins and records. The high score was set by Northcoastgamer with 330,635 points. Bust it if you can for a bonus point!

rubeon Posted July 12, 2021 Share Posted July 12, 2021 57,050 Every miner has a backstory when I play. The guy on Level 12 took the job to pay for his oldest son's wedding, which is in a couple of months. Sorry, mate, the lava rocks got me ? 1 Quote Link to comment https://forums.atariage.com/topic/322778-5200-hsc-season-14-round-14-hero/#findComment-4862278 Share on other sites More sharing options...

rubeon Posted July 13, 2021 Share Posted July 13, 2021 86,095 I could hear poor Pierre banging his pickaxe against the rock down below, but a dynamite misfire at the very entrance sealed both our fates!

+Cafeman Posted July 19, 2021 Share Posted July 19, 2021 Unfortunately, there is no way to pass the collapsing lava trap on this version of the game unless you are using analog controls. You can't hover with digital controls. That means starting with level 14 you are guaranteed at least one instant death on that screen, and possibly several more until you push on through to the next safer section. It kills the fun, for me, at least playing on Altirra with keyboard control.

rubeon Posted July 24, 2021 Share Posted July 24, 2021 124,885 Dr. Phillips was helping the mining orphans on level 18 when the roof collapsed. I lost control of my heli-pack right above the superheated rocks and that was the end of us both ?
