Hah, nice picture.  Now the question is, do I try to beat your score?  250K is pretty high, it starts to get really hard

hello toilet .

If you're only trying for participation then just focus on getting through levels by filling enough screen space and avoiding enemies. Don't worry about any high scoring tricks. It shouldn't be too hard to get 50k. Fast draw using the A button won't net as many points but it's easier to avoid enemies.

On the first level you can start out by moving a few spaces to the right and slow draw a vertical line from bottom to top, and the Qix usually won't touch you. Then you can box in the Qix in the corner with a fast horizontal line. This simple strat can get you over 30k just for the first level.

I found myself yelling enough profanity at Qix for me to have to flip it the bird. It's a decent game though.

I wouldn't mind getting another win this week.

OTOH, it would be nice to see someone get over 300k. It's not going to be me.

It's a struggle, I wanna go for the win, but I don't want to put a bunch more time in and then not get the win. No matter what I do it doesn't affect me on the main leaderboard. Idk. Maybe I'll play a bit more, my hangup is splitting the stix on level 3 and 4, I always want to score slow draw points before splitting and I end up either losing lives or fucking up the split. Lots of setup just to likely get crushed in the later levels

Guys, gals.

I had to sell most of my collection for expenses but I put a lil to the side and fate steered this my way.
