Happy I was at least able to post scores for both games  


Bust a Move changed when it became a lame learn how to point farm attempt instead of progressing in the game. It changed about a couple weeks ago . Progession with high score tie breaker made it alot more fun to try
Unfortunately last time I checked this thread was when Brock said we were sticking with the rules. I absolutely should have checked the thread again before 9pm tonight lol. I agree progression is the way to go in BaM.

This month will be interesting for sure. I have never played Kirby’s Dream Course so we shall see. 




Interested to see how next

Yeah, I thought so, too. I hated trying to play for points. I did a lot better playing for progress because I could just focus on clearing the levels.

Updated my score-post on page 1.

Despite the fact that I don't think I'm very good at all at either game, I had fun challenging myself to get better. Both games are excellent in their underlying game play, even if they get punishing very quickly. I've easily spent more time with these two games this past month than I have in the last 15 years. This is true for me as well! I had a ton of fun and while it looks like I've fallen a few places on Bust-A-Move, I intend to continue putting up a good showing for shmups going forward! Really excited to see how Donkey Kong will work, haven't played that in forever!
