fakecortex Posted August 27, 2022 Share Posted August 27, 2022 A ways away from my 79k pb, but feels good to break 50k after a long time away. Got the lady chef at the end, but no luck surviving. BT - 55,100 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good grief. You hear the bell and then scramble to get there and the darn thing vanishes right before you get it.... REALLY??? C'mon Man??? Terrible game design. Needs atleast 2 or 3 more seconds so the stupid things are reachable.... 🙄🤦♂️ They are the worst.. I swear there is a little person controlling them somewhere giggling evilly at me and every time it's down to the wire they press a button so it disappears exactly before I get it 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it a secret I’ve never seen before? Or is it just a glitch that only fakecortex uncovered? One may never know.

fakecortex Posted August 28, 2022 Share Posted August 28, 2022 Ok, so the mystery of the lady chef... is just that. A mystery. I've been getting her forever. I think my inty is haunted or something, b/c I also get a color glitch on Q*bert, but it's nowhere near as fun. There, colors change and it makes it harder to play. But for BT, the chef actually looks like a brand new sprite! I think some other colors change too, but it's not as bad as Q*bert. Other than the colors/graphics, that's it, it doesn't change gameplay. Of course, she sometimes gives me good luck 3 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IntellivisionMaster Posted August 28, 2022 Share Posted August 28, 2022 Thank you very much @gavvv for your score! You know I haven’t played this in 5 years… and the pace is insane here LOL 😂. I think on the Atari side they play one game every 2 weeks with no overlap. It’s all good! All good! (Except when you need a full year of practice to catch Gavvvvv on Burgertime). As always Ryan, fantastic score! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't love the game, but it's not bad, kinda fun, I'm just terrible at it. On the other hand, Q*bert to me is the absolute worst game ever created in the history of ALL games. I hate it on the Intellivision and the Atari port is EVEN WORSE. Just an absolutely HORRIBLE HORRIBLE game.... 🤮 Does that clear it up???

+wongojack Posted August 30, 2022 Share Posted August 30, 2022 I played a little more tonight. I was hoping for a breakthrough, but I didn't get one. I didn't take a photo, but my score was only a slight increase from my last post at 50,700. There's always been something about this game that just seemed a little bit unfun to me. I don't really get into the idea of making burgers to begin with. The game is cute and from a game design point of view the concept has depth and is solid, but I NEVER get excited about playing as a burger chef. Anyway, that's my problem not the game. I've now played this for a few hours with you guys and I have a handful of gripes that make me want to reset or stop playing rather than have another go and they are (in order of annoyance) #3 - Probably my fault, but I can't figure out when the guys spawn on top of a bun and when they spawn from the edges. Means I get killed by a suddenly spawning enemy, and even if this is my fault because I haven't bothered to learn the rules, it still sucks when I'm headed across a burger and get surprised #2 - The already mentioned disappearing pepper prize. It's on the screen waaay too short a time #1 - The least fun thing is that I'd say between 10 and 20% of the time, the pepper just doesn't come out. You press the button and you just die. This simply CANNOT happen. It sucks I also have never seen all the guys bunched on top of themselves allowing you to drop them all for 8000. I've played the game for hours, so it must be some kind of points pressing trick which I get is fun for some people, but I don't really get into that kind of thing. Anyway, I might play a bit more to see if something clicks, but not being able to count on my pepper really sucks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
