      @GtBFilms There are also two very close to each other halfway through the second side-scrolling stage, but you have to choose whether to go up or down so I don't think you can get both.

        I wonder if someone could re-encode those audio files in a slightly less quality to make them smaller and work better on the RPi hardware. Like if they're stereo, maybe make them mono and if they're 48000hz , maybe make them 44100hz. I think most of the samples are just uncompressed WAV files. I wonder if mp3/ogg files would work.

          @backstander I have to think that the emulator is looking for specific files, so maybe resampling, but I'm not sure a different file type would work.

              You can get both health items in the second side scrolling stage, but they don't show up consistently (maybe triggered by your level of health?)

                So you think I made an overlay for Aliens ?
                Wrong.

                I made 2 !

                Check'em out here.

                  Thanks @GtBFilms for the Flame thrower tip! :-)

                  The first time I played I didn't realize that you can "choose" which weapon to pickup.

                  About Vimana: I didn't know it but I found it a nice shooter. I voted for it, but I'm enjoying Aliens too.

                    There's a 1-Up after the big alien midway through the third side-scrolling stage.

                      @obsidianspider Do you know what is the advantage of wearing that metal thing? I thought I won't take damage but I took... Got 96k but I'll try again not wearing that thing. I prefer my flame thrower...

                        @meleu The mech suit thing? I'm not sure if you can play without getting in it, I've not been able to get that far again in my subsequent play throughs, but I'll be sure to try again tomorrow. I think it was part of the movie, but I've not seen it.

                          There's no better time than the present. As far as Sci-Fi/Action movies go, it's second only to 'Terminator 2: Judgment Day'.

                              I've got 119600. Died on what I believe is the third boss.

                                      @lilbud Did you beat the game with only one credit?! It's pretty impressive. But if you use continues, I think the score restarts after a continue.

                                        @meleu One credit? HAHAHAHAHA

                                        it probably took 20 credits to beat.

                                            I wonder if anyone made a utility to count up how much money you would have spent if you'd been inserting coins for every time you pressed Select in MAME. This game alone would have been quite an investment at the arcade.
