RickR Posted September 20, 2014 Report Share Posted September 20, 2014 Just curious what strategy others used. Shoot as many rocks as possible, or clear the screen except for one rock and hunt saucers?I did the clear and hunt until the small saucers came out. Then it was shoot rocks.

Fire_In_The_Valley Posted September 21, 2014 Report Share Posted September 21, 2014 Honestly I didn't really use a strategy. Keep to the center, don't fly around too much, and be quick to stay alive. It was just sheer tenacity. I must've played the game 10 times to get that score and I still came in 2nd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greenween Posted September 21, 2014 Report Share Posted September 21, 2014 I stayed in the center unless I had to move, only using hyper space when I had to. I also tried to only hit a couple rocks at a time to avoid buttloads of tiny ones. Played at least 50 times to get that score so you where hard to beat Fire!! You earned that controller bud!

We're having the Live Chat Atari Trivia Night on October 29th and will be giving away a Vader 2600 with lots of goodies. We'll see how that goes, and afterwards the next giveaway will likely be something Jaguar-related. There's still a lot of love for that system.
