      If I voted anything other than Time Pilot you'd know I was an imposter :))

            I didn't know this game. Pretty cool. I'll play it again, out of MAME ROW, for sure.

            Here is my best score so far: 87900

              By the way, @UDb23 made an overlay for this game six months ago.

                78200 pts - Stage 3
                @firsttry ;)

                The game seems to be a classic endless gamer
                stage 1 - 1910
                stage 2 - 1940
                stage 3 - 1970
                stage 4 - 1982
                stage 5 - 2001
                stage 6 - 1910 (seems more difficult).....

                at the bottom left you see "kills to go..."

                  It's an absolute classic! Played the real thing a lot as a kid.
                  It's a shame I'm on a business trip and therefore can't play it this weekend.

                      Took me a few tries, but then I found my groove.

                        Much like the Joust post I wrote up a while back, I just posted another Arcade Classics: Time Pilot where I added some playing tips/strategy for those who would like a little help with this game.

                                @meleu Well technically I can, but it's not a highscore anymore!
                                Oh what the heck, I'll just do it anyway then :)

                                  Is the top right planes just an indicator of the current level?

                                    @andershp yeah! Do it! :-)

                                    By the way, my older son beated my score. Let me try a little more before moving to the MAME ROW Anniversary Edition.

                                      @meleu It's nice to hear the younger generations are in on the fun. Many of these arcade classics have a timeless gameplay.

                                      My son is 2, so he just likes pressing the buttons at random :)

                                            I think it is. I was definitely on the "Jets" 1982 level when I posted 119800. I have yet to see the flying saucers. @meleu posting 88600 having completed just one level is pretty impressive. If you can carry that score into other levels, you will definitely break 100k!

                                            I think there is the potential to take this score even further, as I went into the 1982 with multiple extra lives, but a series of bad maneuvers or bad luck caused me to lose them quickly.
