MAME ROW #52 - 1st Anniversary Edition - Phoenix

@caver01 yes. I feel like that too.

But [Chinese Sage intonation] when I accept a challenge I try to adapt myself to the challenge, not the opposite.

@caver01 It can be summed up like this:

You move too slow, enemies move too fast

AndersHP

@caver01 Absolutely. I'll post my highscore anyways, since it won't get any higher: 500

XD

Edit: sorry, I forgot to take a picture. Remind me later ;-)

I got 2620. Thanks for selecting this game otherwise I likely wouldn't have played it myself.

I don't fully get all the negative comments about it - I mean, sure, it's not the greatest game ever, but if I had to play it back in the day I can see it being quite popular! I mean, 1980? Impressive.

Keep up the good work here - I'd perhaps like to see scores without the glitch, for a fair comparison:)

@lilbud Act like a robot!

I don't know what the bug is, but I was rather proud to get 4350 with a lucky game! I'm hoping no bugs were involved

caver01

@fruitybit No bug! Good score. The bug is killing three birds as they fly away giving you 204,000 points.

Fruitybit

@caver01 Ha! Not sure that's a bug then, that would be difficult!!

@fruitybit I posted about it above: https://retropie.org.uk/forum/post/107810

cyperghost

Is there a good strategy for killing ET sitting in his saucer?

cyperghost

There is no need to show picture :(
Just 2830 bugs :( ET keeps me down!

meleu

@cyperghost one tip for the big birds: wait them become birds (from ball to birds). They will give you more points. ;-)

meleu

My best score without abusing the bug: 16,360.

caver01

I got 2900. I don’t feel good about it, but at least I beat @cyperghost
