Rickster8 Posted May 9 Share Posted May 9 (edited) Mike already beat the Kart Tag score. 😲 We are now at the point in that game that only almost perfect runs will be posted. I think 250.00 is possible but it would have to be perfect meaning zero tags missed and close to zero obstacles hit. In any event, it's a pretty cool game... I've only played option 1, Standard.... With the Random race I'm guessing lower times would be possible based on getting a favorable RNG? 🤷♂️ Edited May 9 by Rickster8 Formatting 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also play standard and I think that around 245-250 is about as perfect a score as you could get. If I had my current best on every track I'd get a 252, but we all know that doing that all in a row is tough. lol 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keep in mind that turning also slows you down a bit. Likely if you're tapping the left/right, you're better off, compared to continuous turning. Continuous turning at high speed may be different than continuous turning at low speed, too. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MGG Posted May 10 Share Posted May 10 Figured I'd throw them here as well as the FB thread. My high scores: Got pretty good RNG on The Blob: Pensate gets REALLY tough on higher levels! I think this is either level 8 or 9: For the live of me I can't understand how @Rickster8 got such a high score! But I'm trying to get there. lol: Kart-Tag isn't randomly generated in standard mode so a good benchmark for competition: Canyon Escape turns from scoring in meters to a high score, which I'm guessing is a combination of lives and fuel left: Sheep it Up! You're gonna have to tune in to my stream tomorrow at 2pm EST to see how I did this: 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It just stays at 500.0. 🤷♂️ Short answer: It's the same, except I added a couple of wait commands, to slow down the game. The "Best" column shows the previous best, so you can compare your current time vs previous best time. It should therefore update at the end of your second game (use "1" at start for "standard" play). Longer answer... First of all, there's two sets of "best" scores... one for the "standard" play, and one for any other version. I'm pretty sure this is how I set it up. For "official" high score purposes, you should always/only select "standard" play by pressing one. At the end of your first game, your time will be shown down in the "Time" column, and the PREVIOUS best times will be in the "Best" column. The Best column will show 500 at this point, as starting/default best score. Assuming you beat the best time of 500 for the course, all your scores will be in green, showing that you beat the record for that course. If you continue playing in the same mode, for instance by pressing one at the start (again), then after the second game, you'll once again see your current game times in the time column, and the previous best times in the best column. If you've beaten any of the records, your time will be in green (best shows the previous best, so you can compare your current vs previous). I'm only showing one decimal place, so the score might show green or white in case of what appears to be a tie (but isn't). See course 5 in the pic above, vs course 1 and 2. Finally, though, if you press reset or power off/on, the best times will be reset. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Woaw, congratulations for finding this exploit in Sheep It Up and thanks a lot for sharing it! I would have never thought about this issue, that's why it's always best when experts players test the games and not only us developers :). I really love your solution too, of resetting the score to 0 whenever the player touches the ground, and this is the first fix I'll implement for the next version of the game (like other participants, I'm waiting the contest to be officially over before releasing a fixed / updated ROM of the game here). I''ll confess that I was really curious to see how you achieved this, great work on teasing / setting up a mystery :)! And by the way, in the current version, the maximum displayable highscore is 9.999 points (4 digits displayed using 2 flickering sprites).

Will there be a way to tell if you are playing the new version that’s fixed? Hard to do high score challenges if there is no way to tell. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
