Fair play. Ill give it another run tomorrow .

Always loved it , if I could ever finish that goddamn bonus round with a clean sweep ...every time I just make a balls out of hitting the lowest targets . I hate that 3rd level boss also

We need more contenders also . It's a three horse race in every game ..

ROLL UP , ROLL UP ,

Got my MAME version working so will give this a go later this evening

Argghhh

Got to 4th boss for my first time. Yet to get a perfect on the bonus stage yet:(

I will leave it for now, reflect upon my mistakes and come back at it tomorrow .

That could be to my detriment or to.my success. Some times when your on run it continues, if ya leave it and come back you run the risk , either playing like you've never played it before , or you could come back with divine renewed super power skills🤞

Thems the breaks

Nice run! You'd have definitely beaten my score if you got the bonus level down. I think it's an additional 20k?

Yeah a lad driving a wrecking ball...he's probably easy and ya just need to duck it seems but he just hit me with his second swing.

I just cannot get that bonus round. I can't hit the lowest targets ...dont know what it is !!!!

Edit - I seem to be getting my bosses confused haha yeah haven't gotten to that lad yet.

I keep getting killed on level four about half way through when a load of steel bars fall down on your head.

Ohhh look at me at level 5 😂.

Tis a good game all the same ...all about patterns really and where to stand and stop .

Realised in one or two situations if you just don't move or move to certain place and stay still all the bullets just pass by you .

Enjoying it , an old school classic with cracking sfx and music

Ill have to give the film a rewatch later when I'm back .

I remember how shocked I was when I rented it out as a young nipper and the scene near the start where poor oul Murphy gets blown to bejaysus ..for some reason it really effected me :)

Ah unfortunately I was getting a bit ahead of myself and confusing the level 3 and 4 bosses haha. You've definitely gotten furthest so far!

I suck; keep dying very early on in round 2. I had forgotten how harsh this game was.

Think the highest score i had was 20800

Once you get the patterns down it's all grand :D

One of the big things to remember is learning when to stop walking / ducking and waiting for the bullets to pass. RoboCop is a bit slow on the reflexes to take out a lot of folks before they get their shots off.

Couldn't better my score , and couldn't get that infernal bonus round . Looks like ya take this @o1s1n .fair play .

Your pick of game ..

It's 2 a piece to me you and retro

unky chop chop

Get the thinking cap on for next game @o1s1n .

I must say I'm thoroughly enjoying this competition, playing games either I've never played before , or have played and just not put effort into them

Get your loin cloth and sword out, it's Rastan time!

I'm loving it too myself, great to play some games I don't normally go near, with a bit of purpose too.
