asponge Posted November 7, 2021 Share Posted November 7, 2021 (edited) Last round of Season 19! Every manual scan I found online was terrible. I linked one of them below, but it's difficult to read. The controls, however, are pretty straightforward: A to jump and B to shoot. Each character has their own special ability that can be charged by holding B and used by subsequently releasing B. New characters can be unlocked by completing the various stages. Switch between characters with the select button. Unless you exceed the default high score of 50,000 the score disappears quickly after your last life so be sure to take note. Game Rules: Complete stages in any order No Passwords No Continues Manual Score Post Deadline: Sunday November 21 at 11:59 PM CST AtariAge High Score: 53,400 by Starcry posted on 4/8/2010 Scores as of 11/19: Razzie.P 296,700 asponge 35,900 jblenkle 15,200 roadrunner 8,700 NES Arcade: Below are 10 arcade ports we're playing alongside the regular games.

asponge Posted November 8, 2021 Author Share Posted November 8, 2021 Just updated the season scoreboard. Razzie.P has jumped ahead at the last minute with the arcade submissions from last round. However, it's still a tight race for first. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

roadrunner Posted November 10, 2021 Share Posted November 10, 2021 Looks like the same Bucky O'Hare manual scan ended up on a handful of different websites. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Razzie.P Posted November 15, 2021 Share Posted November 15, 2021 Bucky O'Hare -- 127,300 This game feels odd to me, and I'm not sure why. Haven't been able to beat it yet, but I can finish the 4 initial planets consistently now. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Razzie.P Posted November 18, 2021 Share Posted November 18, 2021 Bucky O'Hare -- 296,700 Hot damn! I made it! It only cost a bit of sanity and a small fortune added to the swear jar. This game is a mixed bag for me. So many great ideas, that it always seemed to find a way to make me smile and say “oh.. that was neat.” Heck, it even changes the genre a bit for the final level. It’s like they managed to include every nifty NES trick ever done, as some point. However… many parts just seemed overly difficult for the wrong reasons. Harsh collision detection on the 1 hit death parts, and some pretty cruel platforming sections. Oh well, glad I can check it off my “to finish” list, and will add it to my “would love to see it revisited in a modern game” list. Oh… there doesn’t seem to be a way to view the score after it’s finished, unless my brain was fried at that point and I was just missing it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was hoping to possibly beat the game and play into second loop for a higher score but it didn't happen. Those last few stages are really hard.

fakecortex Posted November 21, 2021 Share Posted November 21, 2021 Bad Dudes - 28,500 “I’m so bad.” You said it, buddy. Bump ‘n’ Jump - 18,360 Donkey Kong - 53,000 Donkey Kong Jr. - 138,800 Palamedes - 148,620 Q*bert - 32,000 Forgot to pause to grab a pic, so I rounded down from what I remembered. I had a lot of fun this season, especially with Duck Tales and getting the different endings. The arcade games were fun, but I definitely didn’t take advantage of the seven months we had to keep improving. Great job to everyone this season! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
