      I'm going to have another go today, but a few tips that I've found while playing:

      • You don't have to use the jet pack to jump, you can just press up to jump and that will be used most of the time when jumping
      • Kill all the bats. There are a ton of them and they don't kill you like a regular enemy. They will drain some of your jetpack charge, but they're not instant death.
      • Shoot all of the security orb things before you worry about the people on the ground. You can jump or duck under most of the bullets, but those things coming from overhead at an angle can get tricky.
      • You get an extra life at 20,000 points. I'm not sure if/when another extra life is triggered, I still haven't topped my 33,000 from the other day

          @meleu I've only ever taken the first one, but I may try the second one just to see what happens.

            Is it just me, or does the main character move VERY slowly?

              @lilbud it doesn't happen here. What version are you using? I'm using 0.78 (mame2003) on raspi2 and I think the movements are "normal". Just like the video posted above.

                    @obsidianspider yes. I just need a decent internet connection. Trying to do it right now...

                      @meleu No worries. I know it's a bunch of work to set this up. I didn't want to make a bad assumption and then set up an unsanctioned MAME ROW imposter post. ;)

                            @obsidianspider I wrote a script to help with those posts and it can be useful for you. Take a look here:
                            http://github.com/meleu/share/blob/master/mamerow.sh

                            The MAME ROW game list must be on the same directory. You can get it here:
                            https://github.com/meleu/share/blob/master/mamerow_gamelist.txt

                            I'm planning to improve the script later. But you can use it.

                            (FYI I'm able to answer the posts here and not make the MAME ROW #15 post because I'm using the cell phone connection and I'm far from my laptop.)

                              git clone http://github.com/meleu/share
                              

                              should get the two needed files and some others, but they are small files and you can easily delete them.

                                @meleu Thanks for the numbers and the script. I'm at a Rose Bowl football watch party right now but if no one puts up a post before I get home I'll make the new one for this week.

                                  @obsidianspider thanks, the 'jump' instead of 'jetpack' tip helped!

                                  As did playing on a PC with a D-pad.

                                  Even so, I couldn't beat @meleu 's score! Only 28200 for me this week.
