A small improvement ... 19,210

Hi, guesser! I'd like to work with you to update BeebEm with your changes. I tried PM'ing you, but it seems you may have these disabled?

It's great to play this again... 16,770

A little better, but still on level 1... 7580

I never played this before, great game. I didn't know the Beeb had an R-Type copy! Here's my first attempt... 2930

I have Studio 5000, Studio -2, and Studio 5000-4 Issue Discs, not sure which releases they are. I'll upload photos when I get a chance. It'd be great to have links to all those disks already archived!

I really like this game. Fun, frustrating, but well executed. Now up to level 8... 1136

I nearly completed level 7, but lost control at the last corner... 886

Hi Ian, I'd like an 8-bit V2 with DOM, please!

Took me a while to figure out level 2, until I realised the start position is kind of hidden... Up to level 5 so far... 502

I've just been playing this. Congratulations streaks, it's a really good game, nicely done!!

I'd like to say a big public thank you to Chris Jordan for sending me this pristine, never out of the poly's Music 1000 :-o Music1000-1.jpg Music1000-2.jpg Music1000-3.jpg Paul That's great :D I'd like to also say thank you to Chris, he has also sent one to me, after I had the pleasure of meeting h...

Well done on getting to 100k I'm happy for your score to stand.

I'm just about keeping up with you, FS ... 76,950.

There are 6 levels ... I originally wrote 5 by mistake. For my last score, I think I got to level 3, second time around. I'm following the same strategy as you, but I'll try to use boulders as much as I can. I just noticed a bug in the gane. There were only the 2 green monsters left on level 1, I dr...

New high score ... 58,330.

That went fast ... I'd like to come, but I'll wait for the next one ... Hopefully ABUG south in January.

You may have, I just remember playing it somewhere along the line. I may have been testing out games for choice so don't despair. It's a great game that I suck at but it is fun. Yes, this isn't a bad one ... Only 5 6 levels though, and not sure if the difficulty increases when you go back to level ...

Ooh, I hoped I'd chose something we haven't played in the competition before. I used to like this game BITD. It's a bit annoying how the dragon's flames pass through the earth though, watch out for that... 23,120.

The ABUG meetup this weekend was excellent. Thanks to jbnbeeb for organising everything so well, and to Jason and all at the Cambridge Centre for Computing History for hosting us. I brought along my Beeb with Music 5000, plus keyboard and MIDI interface - which hadn't been used in decades. It was a ...

I bought a Music 500 recently, but haven't been able to get it fired up. Can anyone help me with that? I don't have an amplifier, so was going to use the telly, but that may be a silly idea. Quite possibly, yes. I'm at ABUG all weekend with a Music 5000 system, I have some powered speakers with me.

Col, you wrote it. I'm surprised people aren't paying you more respect..... sigh.....

Wow... No disrespect intended to anyone. I'm just here to have fun and play a few games.

I just tried this game for the first time ... scored about 4000 but the score disappears too fast at the end so I couldn't take a photo. I'll have a go in BeebEm.

This time I got up to level 4! 35,750

Also up to level 3 now... 24,640

I hope you have a speedy recovery, Ed.

I'm trying to figure out level 2... 17,130.

In the groove!

Nice going! Trying to keep up... 47,220.

A better score, but still not past level 4 yet... 39,430

Can't get past level 4 yet, it's really tough... but it's much further than I got to BITD. 36,530

It's a fun game, the hardest bit is where you have to descend to get into the rocket. Now up to level 4... 31,465

Great choice of game! 28,470
