VGC Posted January 11, 2016 Report Share Posted January 11, 2016 Hello Everyone, This took quite a few tries. Small buckets are much harder than normal. I'll be having a Kaboom Challenge at my next CCAG. Glad to see a site like this exists! Mike : ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atari 5200 Guy Posted January 12, 2016 Report Share Posted January 12, 2016 This is most likely one of those games that is better on the actual hardware than on an emulator. It is good to see some awesome scores being posted! This is going to be a lot of fun! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RickR Posted January 14, 2016 Report Share Posted January 14, 2016 Those are high scores that were beat. For example: me. i beat my high score, so he crossed out my original. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fergojisan Posted January 15, 2016 Report Share Posted January 15, 2016 This is a totally different game with the A difficulty on, it's amazing. But this is the way I'm going to play this from now on, I think it's good practice. I can't believe I just squeaked by, but there's still a few hours to go. Good luck everyone!

Arenafoot Posted January 15, 2016 Report Share Posted January 15, 2016 Just curious why some of these are crossed out? Those are high scores that were beat. For example: me. i beat my high score, so he crossed out my original. Exactly what Rick said....these gamers beat their own score to move up (or at least try to) in the rankings. I try to post updates periodically and its a good way for the fellow gamers to see their progress.

StormSurge Posted January 15, 2016 Report Share Posted January 15, 2016 I wish I could say this was after just a few attempts. I won't disclose how many attempts this took but I will say that it took all I had not to throw my paddles across the room. (And notice what happens to my screen. I'm still having that issue.) There's no way I'll be able to fix that on my own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Atari 5200 Guy Posted January 16, 2016 Report Share Posted January 16, 2016 Great game! That was fun!! I believe playing actual hardware and cartridge compared to a laptop with a small touchpad running the game on an emulator makes a huge difference.

Justin Posted January 16, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 16, 2016 Congratulations fergojisan! GREAT SHOWING, ALL OF YOU! Kaboom turned out to be really challenging! Congratulations on your win fergojisan! If you'd like to, you are more than welcome to post your winning score to the Scoreboard. You and VGC both had very impressive scores on Kaboom!, and if someone comes along in six months with a higher score it would be cool to see this continue. I would invite all future Squad Challenge winners to post to the Scoreboard if they wish as well. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XimcM0MEChc Our next Squad Challenge is up! http://forums.atari.io/index.php/topic/1483-squad-challenge-pinball-nes/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
