I have like 7 Intellivisions. Some are for parts, but I have one that has NOT been modded yet. I could mail it over to you in Utummwa Iowa and Radar O'Reilly could receive it for you? ? Or if you just have newer TVs, I could send you an AV modded one? ?♂️ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crade Posted February 9, 2022 Share Posted February 9, 2022 (edited) You might be better off with a computer for this game, even with the updated membranes the controls are brutal with the intv controller! plus getting an intv is 100 times easier than getting Tutankham to play on it apparently I was either getting lucky with my first couple games or I've been super unlucky since managed to get the 100k at least 101300 (easy mode) Level 3 Edited February 9, 2022 by crade 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh and this game has YUGE point leeching potential... ? Not sure I would say "impossible", but I think there are parts that seem just luck based to get by like that spot you died at.. I'm still not convinced there isn't a better way to do it.. I tried filling the screen with enemies so you know one wont pop out when you try to cross.. It works except the medicine is worse than the cure.. And also if you die in one of those spots they can just kill you over and over before you can do anything at all which is just bad design I kindof like the game but I hate the control scheme, I can't switch from the keypad to the action buttons fast enough to matter so the nuclear attack is mostly useless for me. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah the game HAD potential, but the whole you can only carry one key at a time is stupid. Going back for that second key is a virtual nightmare. And yes I agree the slew of deaths concept is a total game killer. Meaning if you die in a bad spot like you said they will just keep killing you which yeah is a BAD gaming design. Reminds me of Beauty and the Beast where you can have 6 guys left and within seconds you can loose them all. I hate games that make you respawn in tumultuous situations lol...... ??

I don't mind having to go back over the area you already went to get the second key and being way harder the second time. It's "MetroidVania" style ? Oh look now I have the red key I need to redo this whole section to get back to the door I couldn't open before.. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimblargh Posted February 12, 2022 Share Posted February 12, 2022 76,900 is what I could muster. My goal was just to make it to level 3 and I did it. Just like crade I completely forgot the 'clear screen' button until after I played! It's like my ol' Pops says; if you can read you can do anything! ? 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gar0u Posted February 13, 2022 Share Posted February 13, 2022 I was really excited to try this game. Been very busy, so I didn't get to it until just now. "Oh no--PARKER BROTHERS." (Thinking about how awful Popeye is...) "I wonder what the controls are..." (First button I push instakills everything on the screen.) "I think I read you only have one of those for the entire game?" "Which button shoots?" (Ok, the bottom right button.) (An enemy approaches from the left--I push the right button.) "Wait, I can only shoot right, not left?!" (Presses bottom left button.) "Oh. Left button shoots left, right button shoots right." (But I don't hold the controller like that, so it's really awkward to shoot left/right.) "Look at that sprite flicker..." I guess I have to re-read the rule book. But this might be my first and last time playing this "gem". "Thanks for coming to my TED Talk." 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
