BeaIank | 1,796 Events Team · Posted October 4, 2020 Share Posted October 4, 2020 It is time to GET SPOOKY! October is upon us. SPOOOOKYYYY! So to start this scary season, nothing better than an horrific game, Monster In My Pocket! Since our players are scared shirtless, here's the rules already: 1 life only 1 player only Choose whichever character you want Stage progress followed by high score is what determines your placing. If you make to the final boss, take your picture at the start of the fight. Your run ends there. Max score is 9,500. If you pass over it, your score is 9,490 and your run ends there. In case of 9,490 points ties, progress will determine who wins. If you hit exactly 9,500, you may proceed till the final boss without killing anything else... if you can. Any score picture taken at the boss screen takes precedence over 9,500+ points scores. Reaching the boss is a sure way to secure a top 8 spot. If you make to the final boss with 9,500, you earn the 1st place for this week. Several people can tie for 1st this week. Participation: 500 The contest ends Sunday, 10/11/20 at 11 PM VGS time. Your user name MUST be written or typed on a piece of paper and be in the picture for your score to be valid. The entire TV screen, or computer monitor if you are playing on an emulator, MUST be in the picture for the score to be valid. No partial screenshots will be considered or accepted. No screenshots by hitting "print screen" on a computer will be allowed. You must take a picture of your computer monitor. There may be instances where this will be acceptable, but it will be at the discretion of myself and the contest organizers. Also, the use of turbo controllers is forbidden, as well as any cheat codes, Game Genies, slow motion functions, or save states if playing on an emulator. Also, we will only be using NTSC systems for the contests. The use of PAL systems will NOT be allowed. Good luck everyone and have fun. 4 Link to comment https://www.videogamesage.com/forums/topic/5431-vgs-weekly-contest-monster-in-my-pocket/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well get your practice score up and let's see. Please note the no point racking rule. It seems you missed that during Contra Force week. Speaking of which, @Richardhead needs to post a score since Halloween week was his idea.

NESfiend | 1,588 Posted October 4, 2020 Share Posted October 4, 2020 (edited) Hard shade getting thrown early. A score to break the tension. Never played this one before, but I like the controls so far. Kind of a weird mesh between castlevania and chip n Dale. 6,060 Edited October 11, 2020 by NESfiend Link to comment https://www.videogamesage.com/forums/topic/5431-vgs-weekly-contest-monster-in-my-pocket/#findComment-124460 Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's cranky before his evening diaper change after he's had his prune juice. It's a messy situation.

Maybe some Panic Restaurant vibes as well. I'm enjoying it so far.

Bearcat-Doug | 5,220 Posted October 5, 2020 Share Posted October 5, 2020 (edited) @guillavoie @BeaIank Are we supposed to take a picture at the beginning of (or during) the final boss fight? It looks like that's what @Richardhead and @bertsampson did. I took before and after pictures just in case I need to go with the score at the start of the boss fight.

mbd39 | 2,300 Posted October 5, 2020 Share Posted October 5, 2020 It's unusual for a game to have no special attack or any other weapons. I know you can pick up and throw things in this game, but I'm not sure that's even worth doing.

I think the key/bolt do double the damage, but it's a pain to try and carry it around through the entire stage.
