ninjistar | 517 Posted April 7, 2020 Share Posted April 7, 2020 I do enjoy playing this game. The rounds go by pretty fast and it's fairly straight forward to complete a run. If folks are playing this at the same pace as Adventure Island (as I am), I feel that everyone will have maxed themselves out by Wednesday! How're you all getting on?

mbd39 | 2,017 Posted April 8, 2020 Share Posted April 8, 2020 I've learned that I'm awful at this game. There's too much going on and the tiny enemies are hard to hit. The large amount of lives and frequent extra lives help a little. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you looking forward to Super Mario in a couple weeks? The original SMB is my favorite. I doubt that I'll get a million but I'll have fun trying.

bertsampson | 345 Posted April 8, 2020 Share Posted April 8, 2020 So, the level counter rolls back to double zero after 99. Also, when you roll the score, the game maxes your lives. Goodnight! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mbd39 | 2,017 Posted April 8, 2020 Share Posted April 8, 2020 So it's going to have to be highest or lowest round as the only tie breaker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richardhead | 2,813 Posted April 8, 2020 Share Posted April 8, 2020 I say let the rules ride as is. I mean, realistically how many of us are going to get to that point. Just let the 3 or 4 people who do all have first place points and the rest of us land where we land. Could make things interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
docile tapeworm | 4,194 Posted April 8, 2020 Share Posted April 8, 2020 (edited) if two players max the score i think progression should be the tie breaker then lives remaining. if two or more players max at the highest level with the same amount of lives remaining they tie for first place.

Players should take a picture every time they roll the rounds counter to 00 to track their rounds past 99 (and 199 if necessary, etc.). Okay?

Gaia Gensouki | 1,066 Posted April 8, 2020 Share Posted April 8, 2020 I managed to improve my score a little bit and updated it on page 1. I got to over 80k on a single live but then somehow ended up wasting most of my lives shortly after. This is really incredibly difficult and hectic, but still quite fun. Let's see how much room for improvement there still is (probably not much though). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MeganJoanne | 365 Posted April 8, 2020 Share Posted April 8, 2020 Had a dream of someone playing Millipede just before I woke, the score was 505,???. Couldn't clearly see the last 3 digits. Certainly couldn't be me getting that score, most of the time I struggle to make 100,000. Last time I had a game dream ookii_risu got the score I dreamt for Star Force, so good guess if the dream comes true again she'll get this score I dreamed up for Millipede. I been playing too much of this shit, and still can't reach my goal of 200,000. Controls are sloppy and overly loose and shooting rate sucks, and it is chaotic as hell, yet somehow as much as I hate the game I find myself playing it ― I have myself a goal so intend to at least reach that.

Died and noticed I hadn't died, then proceeded to lose the rest of my lives within 2 levels! I was not a happy camper Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I get pretty far with one life and then die, I lose my remaining lives in short order. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tulpa | 3,488 Posted April 9, 2020 Share Posted April 9, 2020 Man, some of you guys are incredible. I suck at this game. I prefer the Famicom version. The frame color is a nice solid blue, not green brick, and the font doesn't look like it's spilling over into the playfield. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
