    The Level 3 Hidden Ramp
    Right at the start of the game on Level 1, run around the back of the "pyramid" structure to the very back / top of the playfield, and jump up. The game will award you 140,000 points and instantly warp you to the Hidden Ramp in Level 3!

    I thought I was bad at it too so don't give up.
    If you enjoy playing it then I am sure you can increase your scores.

    I have a feeling that driller joe plays better when he has a bit of pressure on him and I may have already reached my peak score.
    I made the mistake of going for it way too early and should have waited until the last days of the month, lol.

    As they say in baseball, "you went to the well too early". 
    I'm terrible at this game.  But it's fun anyway.

    Yes, this was the big complaint about all the Recharged titles. It's particularly true of Black Widow since its so easy to die.  Single-life score attack was baked into the lead dev's design philosophy: Live. Die. Retry.
    Atari definitely heard the feedback though.  They added a 3 lives mode to Breakout and now Gravitar. Apparently they are working on  updates to do the same in Centipede, Black Widow and Asteroids.
    Personally, I don't mind a single-life option, but would love a 3-lives mode. In Gravitar, default is 3 lives but you can switch to single-life for a score multiplier. That will make for a cool strategic element for the Squad Challenge when we get there.
