I updated my score and broke into the 160s.

I'm upset with myself for missing some obvious points in that run, though, so maybe I'll try again in a day or two.

Damn I was killing everything that 162k run I had! I don't know if I can get much more I might reach 165k. Awesome competition guys!!!

I'd give it another try, but I doubt that I'd be able to do any better than 4th place even if I got a higher score.

Score updated.  I'm too addicted to stay away a day or two like I said.

I still blew it on one spot that could've gotten me a bit higher, but oh well, maybe next time.

Is the bib to keep the Nog Dew off your shirt?

Oh crap, I used to be a master at this game as a kid, could lay waste to every boss within seconds. I tried again recently though and I'm rusty now. Hahaha.

Please let me know if this doesn't count. I hit select instead of start and wasn't able to capture the score during the game play screen.

Impressive score!  Even if I had managed to pull off my ideal run, I was figuring around 178,000 would be about as high as I could stretch it.

I figure you can pull out at least 200k with some strategic uses of the ships.  That fire ship is great for killing everything!

Nice work.

I guess I should have experimented with the various ships a bit more.
