Title: My High Scores Post by: That Retro Guy on April 18, 2017, 12:34:20 am Hello, fellow Video Game enthusiasts;
I used to list my high scores in my signature but I kept running out of characters to list the scores like I wanted so I figured I'd make a list in a topic here on the forums. I play on my PC using MAME 0.146. If I use the Pause button for any reason, the game ends right then. There were no Pause buttons in the arcades. While playing most games, I use the arrow keys as the joystick and the numpad Enter key as the 'Jump' or 'Shoot' button. While playing Lunar Lander, I use the left and right arrows for rotation, the numpad Enter key for 'Thrust', and the numpad 0 key for 'Abort'. While playing Tempest, I use the left and right arrows to move, the numpad Enter key for 'Fire', and the numpad 0 key for 'SuperZapper'. While playing Tetris, I always start at Level 1, and (obviously) I use the arrow keys as the joystick and the numpad 0 key to rotate the piece. While playing vs Super Mario Bros, I use the left, right and down keys to move, the numpad Enter key to jump, and the numpad 0 key to run / fire. ---------- With no further ado, here we go: My High Scores (as of November 26, 2020): - Active Games - D.onkey Kong High Score: 168,600 - Level 6 - 3rd Barrels - Set on March 23, 2018 Last Attempt: 134,400 - Level 6 - 1st Barrels - +/- Penultimate Attempt: +40,800 Last 5 Games Average Score: 93,000 D.onkey Kong Jr. High Score: 104,800 - Level 5 - Vines - Set on May 10, 2018 Last Attempt: 68,200 - Level 4 - Chains - +/- Penultimate Attempt: +13,400 Last 5 Games Average Score: 61,500 Frogger High Score: 28,500 - Level 8 - 3 Frogs home - Set on February 10, 2018 - Last Attempt: 14,250 - Level 4 - 4 Frogs home - +/- Penultimate Attempt: -1,670 Last 5 Games Average Score: 14,896 Galaga High Score: 150,570 - Stage 17 (Full Disclosure: I used the 'Aliens don't fire back' trick on this game) - Set on December 29, 2017 - Last Attempt: 78,610 - Stage 10 - +/- Penultimate Attempt: -770 Last 5 Games Average Score: 91,024 Tempest High Score: 83,063 - Level 12 - Set on March 8, 2018 Last Attempt: 65,839 - Level 11 - +/- Penultimate Attempt: -3,962 Last 5 Games Average Score: 71,332 Tetris High Score: 30,973 - 60 Lines Completed - Set on June 9, 2020 Last Attempt: 17,976 - 42 Lines Completed - +/- Penultimate Attempt: -634 Last 5 Games Average Score: 23,871 Last 5 Games Average Number of Lines: 42 virtua Bowling High Score: 290 - 9/ (spare) in the 1st frame followed by 11 straight strikes - Set on May 8, 2020 Last Attempt: 204 +/- Penultimate Attempt: +10 Last 5 Games Average Score: 201 vs Super Mario Bros (No Warp) High Score: 280,500 - World 3-2 - Set on June 9, 2020 Last Attempt: 261,900 - World 3-1 - +/- Penultimate Attempt: -18,600 Last 5 Games Average Score: N/A - Retired Games - Lunar Lander - Reason: There really is no way for me to beat my High Score on this game - High Score: 1,475 - 250/250/250/250/250/200/25 - 6 safe landings (5 5x; 1 4x); 1 crash - Set on March 5, 2018 - Last Attempt: 530 - 250/200/75/5 - 2 safe landings (1 5x; 1 4x); 1 Hard Landing; 1 crash - +/- Penultimate Attempt: -945 Last 5 Games Average Score: 821 ---------- I will modify this post as I play. |
