This affects both difficulty and scoring Looks like Cavit does the same thing. I have not test Aerial yet but would guess all will be the same from the same author 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+therealbountybob Posted October 5, 2022 Author Share Posted October 5, 2022 Improved to 56.756 and then to 98,293 getting into some sort of pattern where I take out one side of the descending centipede and then work on surviving the rest! Long way to go to catch Deteacher, I remembered he was a bit good with Centipede Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

8BIT 1337 Posted October 5, 2022 Share Posted October 5, 2022 (edited) On the board with Centipede: 44,191 I definitely never had this version growing up, so it's cool to add it to the collection! I think I mostly played the 1981 version and of course the 5200 hack back then. EDIT: I definitely played the 1982 version, which I downloaded from the first post, but i saw TRBB mention the 1981 in a later post. Was that second mention a typo? It is the 1982 version we should be playing, right? On NTSC everything looks mostly white until you start the game?

I haven't confirmed if all the Inufuto games work like this, and if it a bug in his A8 generating code or if the other 40 formats behave the same way. I hardly think it is a shortcoming of the Atari that it can't reset the level between games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
graywest Posted October 9, 2022 Share Posted October 9, 2022 (edited) Centipede (1982): 47,918 Pac-Time: 6,389 Cacorm: 6,100 Aerial: 32,900 Cavit: 20,940 I couldn't get Dungeoneer to run on my stock 130XE - anyone else having this issue? It loads for about 30 seconds and then freezes... I'll try emulation for this one. EDIT: Got 280 on Dungeoneer - score disappeared before I could get a screenshot.

MichaG Posted October 10, 2022 Share Posted October 10, 2022 A lot of games, here are my results: Centipede 34,921 (realy bad when I see how many points you all have) Aerial 9,200 Cacorm 24,650 Cavid 21,710 Dungoneer 505 (for the first time I didn't play on real Atari hardware because of the NTSC problem) PacTime 1,845 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
8BIT 1337 Posted October 10, 2022 Share Posted October 10, 2022 Ok, my turn to have a go at the 2022 games. I did try to play Pac-Time but it would only just start a game and then reset. Could be because MyIDE II doesn't like running ATRs off the fatloader, but I didn't have any more time to play around with things to get it to work so I bailed. Impetus I just quit as it was so slow and so easy. I must have had like 10 men LOL. It really sucked that Cacorm started flickering after the 4th level as I think I might have liked that the most of the Inufuto games. I thought Aerial was also too easy but since that was the first I played it much longer. Dungeoneer is my fave by far of this group though. I played it through once as I had to see what happened when I finished that last level (which of course is nothing much except the spider gets faster and you start over). The game is just so charming IMO. I think it would make a fun bonus game: maybe see how many times you can get through the loop? Aerial: 43800 Battlot: 15910 Bootskell: 2320 Cacorm: 11950 Cavit: 12710 Dungeoneer: 565 Impetus: 5640 Lift: 2660 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AtariSphinx Posted October 25, 2022 Share Posted October 25, 2022 Just noticed that the HSC record for centipede is 100k which Deteacher and myself beat. I would have thought the record would have been much higher than that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
