Note this was at the part where the snake comes down if you don't move fast enough at the start

Haha. Yes, yes I did get a Bucky cart. Last big purchase of the year (probably...maybe). Kid number two will be popping out the end of January!

If I can finish StarTropics before the end of the contest I might give this another go. I'm not very good at multitasking when it comes to video games or I'd try and do both.

I've been casually playing so far but I'm gonna have to see if I can put it all together in one run pretty soon. I'm not sure how much is left (don't tell me!) but I beat the Salvage Chute last night. Hard stage!

I think I might try again tonight to see if I can pull this score down since I completely disregarded low score and had a bunch of lives left over.

I think that sealed your platformer genre title,so you probably don't have to improve on this score.

Perhaps! But I enjoyed playing through this one and I think I'd have some fun trying again.

I could sit on my score as I'm essentially locked into 2nd place in the standings,but I think I'll try and see if I can maybe get a win this week.

I found this game is easy for getting low score. But I tried beating it for fun and learned you need full energy when you fight the toad ship. Another big accomplish ment is I can run through the red planet lava act without dying now

I decided after my last run to try and beat the game. It took awhile since I lost all my lives when I fought the ship and had to reset with half life but I did it. I think I must of continued about 100 times fighting that toad ship.

I'm locked into 3rd, so I'll probably just call it a week and stick with my participation score. It took me almost all week to finish StarTropics, so I doubt that I'll have enough time left to put up a competitive score before the end of the contest.

Updated my score just to make it harder for you to win this week!
