HSC21 Round 14: Donkey Kong

Donkey Kong

We'll knock me down that furry mutant won the poll again :D

 

Settings

Top players (anyone who has ever reached level 5) must collect all the bonus items dropped by Pauline on every screen (hammers optional!). No practising by starting on the other skill levels.

Start on the default barrel skill level.

DK is a challenging game; if you're new to it or likely to only complete the first level (2 screens) try maximising your scoring on the early levels, but generally rushing through the screens is a good tactic.

 

Bonus Challenge - Highest score on level 1 (both boards in 1 life) TO BE PLAYED AS PART OF NORMAL GOES NOT JUST RESTARTING ETC.

Thank you - perhaps someone on emulation can create a .png so it will match those on the first post?!

I think it makes the 'Pie Factory' a bit too difficult when collecting all bonuses - 93000

Yes much more of a challenge, need to jump over that fire :!:

First time playing this version of the game. It plays great! Will do my daily training. So far, my best score is 53300

Best way to play - I need to get started :idea:

I've played this a million times before, but somehow I just noticed this - there's an extra bonus item that doesn't appear in the arcade.

 

Arcade: hat, purse, umbrella

Atari 800: hat, purse, umbrella, cake

 

I wonder why the programmer did that? Just trying to use up some extra RAM space? And most importantly, whose birthday is it?

Perhaps he thought it would make the screen more playable for the HSC ;)

 

A couple of rusty goes, the joystick was also rusty climbing down the ladders but it seems less shy now!

Level 3 pie both goes 45,700 then 52,100 jumped the flaming barrel on my first go but then was so surprised I paniced and fell right off LOL

Should be a good round, new poll starts after the first week if any of our returning players have any suggestions ;)

I feel I should mention that the DK record hasn't been updated, someone, I forget who, broke it last time we played 🤔

Yes not done the end of season update yet! Not sure but looks like this guy has the "collect all items" score:

DONKEY KONG (ALL BONUSES) (Graphics:8 Sound:9 Playability:10 HSCR *10*) therealbountybob  : 171900  [9-13]  [19-1]

? :ponder:
