@dankcushions what's your favourite ship?
Mine is the blue one

[dankcushions]

@meleu the red, but now you have beaten my score i will try the blue ;)

@meleu & @dankcushions

[obsidianspider]

You guys are machines! I can't get above ~700,000

[lilbud]

My score is in the red box: 579,201
I couldn't get the scoreboard to show up when I died

[meleu]

@lilbud & @obsidianspider Try again using the blue ship!!

[pjft]

I had the chance to play a single attempt yesterday and only managed to scrape by some 190k or so as well, so didn't get the chance to enter my score as well. Also didn't think I would have taken a screenshot after seeing your scores :)

Will try more tomorrow hopefully.

MAME ROW #37 is live!

[lilbud]

@meleu I did

[pjft]

I just tried the blue ship and got to the end of the 1st level only. It was my second attempt at the game, but it's thoroughly enjoyable.

I got 173k points or something - still far from your scores - but obviously suggests that my previous score was more like 19k and not 190k <shame>.

Still, I won't have more time to play this in the coming days, but thank you very much for getting me to be exposed to such a fun game. I will definitely be coming back to it! :)

[dankcushions]

finally beat @meleu's score, but only thanks to his blue ship strategy :) 1717050.

[meleu]

@dankcushions damn! Now I have two arcade gaming items on my ToDo list:

1. Beat @lilbud 's score on Phoenix.
2. Beat @dankcushions 's score on DonPachi.

Cheers!

[lilbud]

@meleu Good luck trying :)

Also, look at this beast of a player Phoenix

Phoenix WR - 1,008,000 points

[lilbud]

@meleu I'm on vacation and I found a Phoenix machine. Now where did I put my baseball bat...?

[meleu]

@lilbud hey, take a picture of this odious precious machine! :)

[lilbud]

@meleu I'll get one tomorrow. It's more of a Mame machine
