Hopefully I can beat the game before the week is out since I think I got to level 20 on my last attempt. If I can spend almost 4 hours playing Gauntlet 2 until I maxed out the score, I should be able to make it through 30 levels of this.

Well I'm glad it's not just me then. I finally cleared all 30 levels and I must've gotten about 10 lives over the course of the game. I was actually worried that the game was broken.

 

So tonight I played 3 straight games and only got maybe 2 extra lives... I think I made it past level 10 on all 3 tries too. It can definitely swing in either direction as far as the extra lives are concerned.

Between the random power ups and obstacles, it seems to play more like pinball than a Breakout style game since it appears to involve luck as much as anything. Too bad guts doesn't play in the contests anymore, this is the type of game that would drive him crazy.

 

I have yet to make it past level 4. I always get there on my final life... I've only hit 40K twice now after probably 20 games. I'm either really, _really_ bad at this game, or really unlucky. Probably both. Fun, though! The music is really starting to sink in. I found myself humming it in the shower this morning after having not played it since the day before.

546,400

updated score... barely, hah

I'm waiting on Bert to drop a 600k score. That 485k was probably a practice run.

53070

36,750 I feel like if i had more time i would get a better score

Well, nice job bearcat. I finished the game, but almost 30k short of your score. Nice work. Maybe if I had more time I could have tortured myself another few hours...

Thanks, I'm just glad that my score held up. I don't think I could've handled another Gauntlet 2 style week.
