      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.

                                        It was my older son obsessed with overcoming me. I didn't even notice the stage. I have to beat his score and show him who rules here.
