HSC21 Round 9: Law and Disorder II


Recommended Posts

Law and Disorder II:

I couldn't wait for round 10 so so here is our 1st theme round for the season :!:

Over 3 weeks to play and we can extend it further if needed, play as many or as few as you wish ;)

Getaway & Keystone Kapers

Bonus: More Gateway, Law Keeper, Cops 'n' Robbers, Daylight Robery and more Robbery!

Gotta Gotta Gettaway :music: going to see these guys https://slf.rocks/home-base again in a month or so, still fantastic live - they're often over in the US too :cool:

Getaway

Downloads: Atarimania Getaway , Fandal XEX

 

"Collect" the $money and prizes and stash them in your hideout ("H" on the map) avoiding the law. Rob the armoured (white) van for some serious loot. To complete a level collect three "prizes" and then a van (you can collect vans at any time also), on the 1st level there are no prizes. Indicator on top right shows what to collect :)

 

Scoring: Page 8 of the manual on atarimania has the scoring and rankings :cool: We will play for ranking then score.

HSC record is 15,190 held by MaPa.

 

New Getaway

There is a New Map for Getaway from the pod cast guys" PlayerMissile" and "Inverse Atascii" so we can play that as a bonus. You can also create your own using the tool provided :thumbsup:

 

Keystone Kapers

The classic platformer is simple to start with but soon gets tricky; collar the baddie jump over and duck under various things; learn to time the lifts (elevators!) and keep an eye on the timer!

Law Keeper - I found this one a while ago and it looks good - press fire to use the 'long arm of the law' to grab the baddies and trap them in the middle. LawKeeper definitely is fun but please someone work out how to do level 6 (play on advanced to start on it)

Cops 'n' Robbers - seems kinda fun - gotta safe to crack. You can stash collected Diamonds in your car & get more ammo!

Daylight Robbery - 2.2 atarimania rating, ouch!!! One for the gaming masochists; really hard but once you work out there is Bounty Bob style jumping you can get to the top right corner and make 50pts by collecting something on the floor along the way. (even at £1.99 it might still be Daylight Robbery!) ok strangely addictive - I got to the top left of the first screen and the line disappears but then I died so not sure if I have to return to the start (again must read) still 50pts despite my mammoth achievement :D

Crime Buster

If anyone has a light gun (I do) and a Crime Buster cart (I don't - but I want one -  if anyone has one for sale or can make me one) then check this one out too:

Atari should have given this a proper official release.

Given that the "new" Atari released Caverns of Mars Recharged (which also started as an APX game), I kind of expect them to release Getaway Recharged too.

That would be awesome to see.  Maybe too big of a stretch for them to see given that Caverns got a proper release.

Getaway Level 8. I wondered what would happen after you completed the 'Boss' level but it just sets back to looking for three magic wands again, albeit in 'Boss' level speed.

Didn't improve my score

I wonder if @TrogdarRobusto has anything to chime in on whether Atari would be in the state to do something with Getaway or if that game perhaps is not part of their IP anyway.

I don't think we have that one ... I can hunt around but my initial answer is "not currently in the portfolio." I'll let you know if I can find something more definitive. It looks interesting.

I love the Gataway!, but man it's so hard. I'm running out of time to compete. I'm taking a break for the next week of so from electronics starting this Sunday. So here's my final scores. Unless a sneak in a game tomorrow.. 🤪

 

Gataway: 610

 

Keystone Kapers: 19,400

Playing some Law Keeper, good game as are all those from Broderbund :love: think I've worked a few more bits out, takes a few goes to get somewhere!

[Esc] = pause

[Space] toggles filling in or erasing the wall blocks as you pass them, not sure if it's just to let you let a ball get back in or maybe it comes in useful on later levels :ponder:

 

53,991
 

Om the Jaw Breaker levels (4 and 5) you can smash them with a long arm of the law.

I think level 6 " Deputy Level " is over if the deputy rounds up law breakers and fills the 4 corner jails, maybe you can stop him or perhaps it just needs you to grab them before him :!:

Not beaten level 6 but have only had a couple of goes so far

Nice game, has the manic feel to it :thumbsup:

Think the other bonus games are on the punishment list though the additional "Robbery" we haven't played before.

 

Is this game like Zoo Keeper ?!

 

Still plenty of time left in this round to join in, may extend it further ;)
