I don’t think it’s ever come up before, but I’m going to have to say no. The whole world would be entitled to a tie for last place with that logic. You gotta at least try to play the game. I’m sympathetic that this cartridge is nearly unobtainable, and that the earlier Atarimax cart won’t play it, but as I said before, emulation is entirely an option. Also, the recent Atari50 compilation release includes BBSB… that could certainly be used here as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+Cafeman Posted April 26, 2023 Share Posted April 26, 2023 70,080. I played a lot of Miner 2049'er but I don't believe I've played these levels past the first few. Takes some time to learn. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If so, we can help you set up an emulator. As I was telling rubeon, I can’t award HSC points unless an attempt is made to play the game Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+DamonicFury Posted April 30, 2023 Author Share Posted April 30, 2023 5 hours ago, Mikey50 said: I have a PC can you help? Sure. Download the Altirra emulator from here... https://www.emutopia.com/index.php/emulators/item/271-atari-5200/1705-altirra It's the first link under downloads. Unzip the file to a preferred location. Download the BBSB rom from here to the same location: https://atariage.com/software_page.php?SoftwareLabelID=718 Unzip it. Run the Altirra64 program. There's a startup wizard, choose the defaults other than to choose Atari 5200 instead of the 8-bit computers Then use File->Open Image and select the Bounty Bob rom. (I got some odd error the first time I did this, but it worked the second time) BBSB should be running now. F2 to start, arrow keys to move, Ctrl to Jump, number keys to use elevators. Hope this helps! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+Cafeman Posted May 1, 2023 Share Posted May 1, 2023 76960. It is a very well designed and programmed fun game. Next time it comes around in HSC I hope to see more levels but ran out of time trying for this one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+DamonicFury Posted May 1, 2023 Author Share Posted May 1, 2023 RB5200 smashes another record and mashes the most mutants to take the top spot. Kudos and a bonus point as well to Northcoastgamer for also breaking the previous record. Jr. Pac-man is up next.
