Hatari with keyboard. I was stuck around 15'000 for a long time and I got on fire for one round

The 5'000 survival bonus for the bomb round really helps...

This was a lot of fun

[simonsunnyboy]

That'S the spirit
Now i need to to imporve my score, I remember making 50000+ in the past as well so it is possible.

[RiverPirate]

Nice score, I will try to beat it.
Btw, my general highscore name is LEO but I will switch to RIP for competitions here.

I'm not getting past a 4-digit score. I thought it was my joystick playing up, so bought a new Xbox PC controller. Nope, I'm just really crap at this game.

Not kept any screenshots as I kept thinking I can do this ... I'm sure back in my youth I was able to complete or get a nice score boost from the bouncing balls thing.

No wonder Archer panned me at his own game at a retro event over a decade ago

Never play this game with a controller. For me, the old style Competition Pro Joysticks work best with such games.

26600 - sadly I accidentally erased my screenshot

i hardly manage over 20000...gotta play this even more.

I remember the event in Sheffield when we exchanged the latest gossip about others sceners and therefor missed Archers appearance

[ThorN]

May is over soon, and a successfull restart of the STOT has happen! Since River Pirate choosed IK+ LynXX should choose the game for June since he scored the most points beside the one who choosed last time. Think that is fair.

[ThorN]

34000

[ThorN]

55400
finally a really high score! Black Belt, never reached that before. That's why I like these compos, if you train hard, you most of the time come to a point where you were never before even you know the game since years.

[ThorN]

Concratulation RiverPirate. Great score.

[RiverPirate]

Thanks!
Admittedly, I had some luck above 50000....

[LynXX]

Nice scores !

Am I still up to choose the next one? If yes I propose Plutos. If not it's ok I'm happy to go with whatever is decided.

We could do Plutos next.
