Ok, I gave Arcadia another chance and didn't observe any strange behavior this time. Once I got it to work, I find it rather attractive and seemingly unique (but perhaps it is based on some game I'm not aware of).

 

Arcadia - 3862 pts, level 1-3.

I just want to get my list of games in:

 

BUNNY HOP: finished level 20
BREAK IT 2022: 172820
ARCADIA: 3317
PAC-MAN EVOLUTION: 19360
DYE HERITAGE EDITON: finished level 3
RETRO DSCHUMP
MOON QUEST
SCHRAENKER II
TRAX
BINARY PARASITE: finished demo
BATTLE OF ERIS: 410  

DARK KEEP: I played this one, but seemed to have deleted my pic!  Made it down a few levels and quit.
SCHRAENKER I: 900

 

I'm playing everything on my 1200XL, which is an NTSC machine (me being in Canada and all :) ).  I'm assuming Battle of Eris is PAL only (or I downloaded wrong xex) as it was jumping around and very flaky for me.

 

So far I'd have to say my favourite games have been Bunny Hop and Binary Parasite.  I did really like Schraenker too. 

Break It! 2022 - 182280 pts, level 16

 

I downloaded the 48K version which should play the same as the 128K but without 3D graphic effects and got it to run after fiddling around with the settings. Then I loaded the 128K version again, and fiddled with difficulty and inputs back and forth, until the game eventually started with joystick control. Something must be uninitialized when loading the game, and it assumes memory content my somewhat buggy 130XE doesn't agree upon, but after changing the settings it started and played as expected. Perhaps it was a Christmas miracle?

With so many games and settings, I figure trbb will have a field day once he starts to compile standings. I made an attempt per below, not sure if I captured every score posted.

Thanks Carlsson much appreciated :thumbsup:

Break It 2022: 281,470. (Level 25)

 

Separate post for this one.  Paddle games are my absolute favorite on Atari systems with Super Breakout being my favorite.   This one is great.  It has similar elements to "Off the Wall" on the 2600 but implemented much better.   

 

- would love to have the manual to understand the different power ups

- would recommend that the power ups have a finite amount of time to last

- great level designs!

So I had hours of fun playing all the games. Used my paddles (BreakIt) and my touch tablet (Dye Heritage) for the first time in this century ;-)

 

I'm sure I will try to finish Moon Quest and will go on playing Arcadia and Bunny Hop. And there will be an extended version of Trax!

Pacmen (Suicide) 85620

 

There's a bit of a flaw with Pacmen Bombman mode. You can just stay on the first screen for ever collecting the bombs and blatting the ghosts. The bombs appear often enough to pretty much just play as long as you want on the first screen
