+DamonicFury Posted May 13 Share Posted May 13 Welcome to the tenth round of the 18th 5200 HSC season. Donkey Kong won the poll by two votes. Use the default settings. 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 with 95,200 points. Beat that if you can for a bonus point.

If so I made a small redu of it that actually says Crazy Kong, instead of Donkey Kong. Not sure, it came with my atarimax and I assumed there was just one out there so did not replace it -- going to go ahead and replace it with the one linked to in this thread. Probably will not help my scoring as I just have no idea what I am doing at this point. Never got into DK at all back in the day so if time permits will use this HSC week as my chance to see if I can learn to enjoy it nowadays.

No, won't help scoring any as the only change was the 1 color and that's it, no other changes were made. So it is exactly the same game, just greenish.

NE146 Posted May 26 Share Posted May 26 Last submission and that's it for me: 127,700 I think it's pretty much the max or at least near the max I can do because the game gets really HARD! Sorry the screenshot is horrible but I actually took a video of this run too if anyone wants it (or cares). 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
