AtariSphinx Posted May 27, 2022 Share Posted May 27, 2022 Asteroids (16 A/B): 34,800 First round of scores. Definitely going to need some improvement. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jasonhrb Posted May 27, 2022 Share Posted May 27, 2022 Some starting scores for Space Invaders and Asteroids. Having comfortably beaten my main round scores in all five games prior to this round, I'm struggling to find my rhythm this time rounds and am a bit of a way off in both of these games (even allowing for the fact that Asteroids isn't like for like due to the variation change). It's definitely looking like exit time for me as it stands, especially given the scores others are wracking up on Aardvark (a game I love, but that is probably my weakest of the three scoring wise) ??? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jasonhrb Posted May 27, 2022 Share Posted May 27, 2022 And something for Aardvark too. Very close to my best from the regular season, so I'm hopeful of at least getting an improvement on my regular season score for this one. Not sure I have it in me to get the big improvement needed to get near what others are producing, but I will definitely have fun trying . . . . .and at least I have now posted this in the right place (I originally put it in the homebrew week thread when I popped back there to check my best score !)? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrMooCowz Posted May 29, 2022 Share Posted May 29, 2022 I'll have some screenshots in the morning when I'm not half asleep, but anyone currently in the top 4 on any of the games have nothing to worry about from my efforts tonight. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AtariSphinx Posted May 31, 2022 Share Posted May 31, 2022 Aardvark (Wild 1, Hill 1, Lives 5, Extra 20K) : 129,550 Space Invaders (6 B/B): 4,475 Asteroids (16 A/B): 48,200 Had a few game sessions today and improvements all around. Small improvement on Aardvark, but much improvement in Asteroids. Making progress in Space invaders but the leaders have some great scores that will be tough to beat. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jasonhrb Posted May 31, 2022 Share Posted May 31, 2022 Some improvements all round. Have got very close to my main round score on Asteroids (which I'll take as an improvement given I did it in three less lives due to the game change ?) , and have got very close to my main round score for Space Invaders too. I've improved my Aardvark score, but I'm still a bit off the pace on this one given what others are doing. It looks like that might be the one that brings my time in the competition to an end ? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AtariSphinx Posted June 2, 2022 Share Posted June 2, 2022 Aardvark (Wild 1, Hill 1, Lives 5, Extra 20K) : 132,610 Slight improvement but an improvement nevertheless. Fun and amazing game but it take a bit of time to get through the game making it difficult to retry once you get to the later levels and want to improve your score in a new game. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrMooCowz Posted June 2, 2022 Share Posted June 2, 2022 As much as I'd still like to try, I don't think it's realistic for me to try to grind 2 of the 3 games to get in the top 4 in the next few days to avoid elimination. So, I will officially concede just to give the rest of you some relief that I'm not chasing. But, you better not pick Frostbite next week where I would've had a strong chance! ? GG and good season, all! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GG and good season, all! Frostbite is so fun even outside HSC and I was glad I did better than I ever did before on it when we played but you killed it in that game. Thanks for the great choice and fun season! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AtariSphinx Posted June 4, 2022 Share Posted June 4, 2022 Aardvark (Wild 1, Hill 1, Lives 5, Extra 20K) : 135,570 Space Invaders (6 B/B): 4,935 Improvements (and likey final)! Finally got put together a more efficient game on Space Invaders. This game feels like playing a musical instrument as you keep repeating the same shot patterns (music notes) but you need to hit every shot opportunity to get higher and higher scores (no missed notes!). 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skippy B. Coyote Posted June 6, 2022 Share Posted June 6, 2022 Yipes! That last minute Astroids score from dombradley really threw me for a loop and sent me scrambling for the past hour and a half to play the best game of Asteroids I've ever played to save myself from a strike. And I did play the best game of Asteroids I've ever played... it just wasn't quite good enough >_< Asteroids (Game 16, A/B Difficulty): 45,090 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
