Okay guys, this time we're good for a treat. I sincerely hope we'll get more pariticipation this week because it's gonna be a wild contest!

Balloon Fight

Rules :
You play in C mode : Balloon Trip

The first person to roll the score immediately takes first place.
If you happen to roll the score (good luck doing so), please take care of snapping a pic before the fact to leave a proof of your exploit.

Participation Point :
10000 (Yes, I've decided to lower it)

This sounds like it's going to be a lot of fun. I just bought this game at the campout, so now I don't have to play on an emulator

This is ass, at least so far on the keyboard.

I know this doesn't even qualify me for participation, but I thought I would keep a log.

I couldn't get the picture from the exact moment I got the score (or died) because the damn fish ate me. I believe the top score is good enough.

I tried to do better today, but I couldn't. I got 56000 though, after several tries. Thanks for the compliment

Seriously, this game is a bitch. Why does it have to be so random ? One game you have like 8 ballons on the screen and 3 stars, the game after you have 1 ballon and a wall of stars that is pretty much impossible to get through.

I updated my score. Yes, it's random, but I just avoid impossible to get balloons. I'll give you a tip (even if it means me getting surpassed): Try to get all the first like 15 balloons without missing. When you get a chain of balloons perfectly, they change color, and then you can score points more quickly.

I'm starting to really get the hang of this game, but the randomness of it can be frustrating at times.
