Holy shit I haven't seen a hitbox this big since D-Force

This will be the first game since Double Dragon II that I actually have to play more than once or twice

Such a bummer!

If you have any GBA signage or kiosk I would be interested. Please send me a PM because I'm only here about once a month now but I'm still VERY interested in large system signage or small playable kiosks related to the GBA.

That is a pretty nice score.  
It will be a stiff competition for the top 3 this week.  
I will just be happy if I somehow beat this thing.

I failed a deep run into the game trying to be too cute with keeping score low. Then I forgot to pause and take a picture... So let this be a lesson to everyone!

Inconceivable!
I have solid proof that I don't have that much tracts of land!

Exactly my point!   

I thought I'd try to mess with some minor low score strats and I paid the price.  No more!  It's high score or bust now, I promise.

I am wondering... is it the booze or the wardrobe accidents that cause my gaming skills to go from terrible from barely decent?
Only one way to find out, I suspect.

Some testing will be done tonight as booze is off limits. I will do a few control runs to gauge performance in my normal state then do another few runs adding the variable and note down the difference.
Once I have access to booze I will do other set of control runs and some runs inebriated and tabulate the results!
Yay, science!
