5200 OE HSC Challenge 12/2021 Millipede


Recommended Posts

Our game for December, is Millipede, never released, but was ready to go back then. Play from starting score of 30k, no continues, use any control you like, long as it's period correct and analog, no penalty. For those who are unable to play, we will have a mini-game of Centipede on Standard, for a half round credit scoring (ie- 6 HSC pts and down) Either way, we're blasting hella stuff. Use original systems, and period controls, with only modern exceptions being flashcarts/SD loaders to run this Rom. Pics preferred, but not required, except for HSC wins and records. Round ends when year, and our season, does.

It sure feels good murdering all those spiders after the grief they gave me all those years in Centipede!

Excellent game.  Unfortunately I won't be able to play any more, as I'm travelling the rest of the month ?

Just curious, is the current record also for OE?

That was from the regular HSC, but that player does use a real 5200 at times. We're not actually differentiating between regular and OE records. Having modded the regular HSC about 7yrs, and this little offshoot since inception, I can say the vast majority of records listed, were done on original hardware, though I'm sure other controls used about half the time.  Being that we usually bust at least one per season, here in OE, I let it ride.

As the style of play here, is what matters, I figure to add in one of these period games we didn't get, for end of the year. Perhaps some more good hacks, such as the autofire Gyruss we ran before.

My fave port was actually the Centipede/Millipede cart for original Gameboy. 

That's one I've never played. I've seen videos though and the style looks a bit goofy to me. I'll have to give it a try some time.

Found a funny sound glitch when you get an extra life when the mushrooms are respawning doing the 'game of life' thing.
