I figured I would try a stall tactic, and dear god if the programmers didn't think of it!!!

 

I got to 4,900 and then figured I'd switch to spider hunting (yes only 100pts a pop) but figured as long as I didn't go for the robot would avoid the homing purple one... The game saw right thru that and gave the grey bot the 2nd Purple's bot homing programming instead, kind of like "you didn't think we thought of that?:


Well played, programmers, well played!

Ok at least some of you saw one of my previous posts about it being wrong the game immediately gave the grey bot the homing programming once the score turned to 5,000pts and probably got a chuckle...

 

BUT THIS WAS WORSE!!!!

 

I was at 49,800 with the black bot with the large grey/white projectile.... My bullet hit a grey robot (the ones that replace the bats) for 300 pts making the score 50,100 and instantly mid-fight with the Black bot he got the GOLD projectile even though he hadn't been defeated yet.... EVIL play Night Stalker, evil play!

Not my best entry.  I remember at least being able to get to the invisible robot at 80k.  I'm getting old and slow.

 

Was only able to play the game once, but I've made a goal to play each game at least once this season.  Work is busy, so I have to settle for what I can fit in right now.

 

Great scores, everyone!

You all are crazy good at Night Stalker! :)

I had high hopes that the special Night Stalker controller I found a could weeks back would boost Night Stalker mojo, but unfortunately it didn't even work for this game! ?

At least it succeeds at looking cool!
