You crushed it Socrates63. When the thumb heals I will be back on this great game. 🙂

Here's another score.  I really needed to play more to get a good score...

I apologize for my token submission, but it's been a long month outside of gaming.
 
47030, played on Stella 6.7 for Mac OS.

Dude, that TV is NICE. 

You tell that dentist you need an appointment at 2:30....(tooth hurty).   Get it?  Hello?  Is this mic even on??

I was in the groove, and my dentist's office calls me 🤬 🦷 I didn't answer and they called again and I still didn't answer 😂 I knew what they were calling about--I need to schedule my implant procedure. Well, the calls broke my concentration, and I was no longer in the "zone" 😂 After the game ended, I called and scheduled it.

Tried again.  Here's an improved score...

Yep here's a terrible score and holy smokes more practice is required - fun title, though!!

WOW!! Great score. I was curious if it rolled over at 100k. Played for a couple hours yesterday and woke up with my trigger thumb swollen to the point that I can't move it! Sucks getting old. 🙂 Still have a few more days though.

About the Gond, from the manual:
As mentioned earlier, you can simply navigate the ship upward and fire and that's it and you're done with the level.
Or, you can avoid the shots coming at you from the side of the screen for more points when you kill Gond. Move up/down and wait for the shot to pass and then move up/down and wait for the next shot to pass by and then repeat. When your nerves start to get too high on edge then press the fire button 🙂 

FWIW I use A/B. I press the button to fire and de-press when I want to move (faster). And I don't have be moving in order to fire forward. I think that might make it easier to deal with Gond.

If only my wife wasn't distracting me with her questions, I would have broke 90k.

I did it!  I beat Gond for the first time ever on the 2600 version!  Thanks for the tip!  I also improved my score.  37,370.

Just push forward while firing. 🙂
 

OK, I got him this time.  Thanks for the tip.  Unfortunately, my score was 100 short of my last high.  I'll keep trying. 
 

Just push forward while firing. 🙂

Just to share some silliness. Growing up I always thought the enemies on the last stage were diagonal 2600 joysticks. LOL Now I see they are just downward facing arrows. LOL

45140

I thought the exact same thing!  They totally look like isometric joysticks.  

Ok, last run for the day 🙂 Vanguard is really good on the 2600
