      I’m getting too old for so much going on on the screen at the same time!

      I feel like I was never young enough. My reflexes have always been sub-par. I try to make up for it with strategy, but that'll only get you so far.

          Nice! I've been playing this quite a bit myself. After learning when and where to attack and what type of attack is most effective, I've gotten as hooked on this as I would a good puzzle game.

            I was able to work about half way through round two for a score of 175690. I might play a bit more later tonight or maybe in the afternoon tomorrow to get in the full mood for 'Ready Player One'.

              You’ll enjoy it I’m sure:) I was expecting it to be just like the book but it certainly doesn’t disappoint.

                I tried out this game too. Alongside with my score, I have two questions:

                1. Is it normal that I get slowdowns with this game?
                2. Is autofire considered as cheating?

                My score is: 167440

                  Just getting back and it was fantastic. The movie they went into within the movie was a great surprise, as it's one of my favorites of that genre. I also got about 30 mini copies of the movie poster that pays homage to the iconic 'Star Wars' and 'Indiana Jones' artwork. Great time!

                  Is it normal that I get slowdowns with this game?

                  It's tough to say without comparing it outside the pi, which I haven't. I noticed a small amount of slow down in some areas using AdvanceMAME, but this sometimes accurately portrays the original hardware.

                  Is autofire considered as cheating?

                  I don't use it myself, but it doesn't bother me personally. It's not like we're trying for a record in the Guinness Book or anything. Nice score!

                          I'm gonna be sad to see this one go. I had a lot of fun with it. However, I suspect It'll be one of my go-to shooters from now on.

                            Sorry, but I couldn't hold it back. The run was just too good, made it to stage 3. :D Also finally direct upload from screenshot, no phones anymore.

                              Very nice! Superhero-like even. I take it you beat, or at least made it to the round 2 boss?
