+DamonicFury Posted May 15, 2023 Share Posted May 15, 2023 Welcome to the tenth round of the 17th 5200 HSC season. Koffi won the poll by one vote. Play using the Normal setting. Emulation is fine, as are custom controls. Pics preferred, but not required except for HSC wins and records. The high score was set by Cafeman (also the game’s programmer) with 87,260 points. Beat this if you can for a bonus point! The ROM can be found here: https://atariage.com/software_page.php?SoftwareLabelID=2374 Round ends Sunday, May 28th, 2023 @11pm EST Standings: Cafeman - 104,505 - RECORD BREAKER RB5200 - 88,130 - RECORD BREAKER Mikey50 - 11,905 rubeon - 8,940 jeremiahjt - 5,030 Quote Link to comment https://forums.atariage.com/topic/351278-5200-hsc-season-17-round-10-%C2%A0%C2%A0koffi-yellow-kopter/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Cafeman Posted May 15, 2023 Share Posted May 15, 2023 If you are using koffipc.bin from the AA page, note that on the title screen you can press the 6 key to change the color of raindrops / koffi's eyes to a hue that is usually more blue on emulators. Emulators often show the hue I chose for blue as more green, unfortunately. The code doesn't change anything else. Here is my old 2002 instructions page: http://cafeman.www9.50megs.com/atari/5200dev/Koffi-Instructions.html EDIT - also, the rules are to play on Normal difficulty. Note however that after your game, it returns to the Title Screen and defaults back to "Easy". Don't worry about that for screenshot purposes!

There are so few people who seem to understand how the game should be played - I see videos and they can't get past stage 1. Anyway, I was doing really well for my new 100k + score session, at one time I had over 9 lives (it doesn't display higher than 9) and I was on the 10th level, which starts to use the Atascii values past 1-9. Level 10 I believe was a colon ":". I thought as I played, I should have made normal get harder quicker.

RB5200 Posted May 16, 2023 Share Posted May 16, 2023 I learned how to play it way back in the day when it came out, and the wife got the cart for me, but I haven't played in so long it took me a few games to get going again. Mine was round 7. By chance did you know about the nasty bug in the windy vines level.

+Cafeman Posted May 17, 2023 Share Posted May 17, 2023 The game has a couple unexpected bugs I've noticed, not sure what the Windy Vines one is. I didn't encounter it on this play through. I have an updated and 2-player simultaneous version that will eventually get released to public, so I can fix the bugs I know about.

+Cafeman Posted May 17, 2023 Share Posted May 17, 2023 Here is a gameplay video of Koffi: Yellow Kopter I did like 10-15 years back. Watching some of it can teach you the game's rules and maybe give you a tip or two.

You have to defeat the cloud by bumping into it enough times, then you can put out the fire completely which ends the stage. In the meantime, keep the fire at bay by collecting raindrops and saving animals, and dousing the fire to keep it small. 1 Quote Link to comment https://forums.atariage.com/topic/351278-5200-hsc-season-17-round-10-%C2%A0%C2%A0koffi-yellow-kopter/#findComment-5259813 Share on other sites More sharing options...
