Do You get an extra in this game?

[dyancey]

only one.

[ThrillaDaMcColdKilla]

so how many point do you need to get for that one extra?

and what is your total highest score? do you think you can post the video up here?

[dyancey]

I stand corrected. You never receive any extras in this game. My high score is just over 1,000,000 and I will not be posting a video. My intention was just to show the screen with the "freaky" fireballs at ~800,000and that it could be cleared. Once there was a contraversy that no one could pass this level without losing a life. I wanted to prove otherwise. That is all.

[dyancey]

I think it is a bug in the code controlling the AI of the fireballs' difficulty that causes this to happen at certain levels throughout the game. I don't think it was done purposefully.

[ThrillaDaMcColdKilla]

i thought maybe we can compete. ill post my attempt if you post your total. that what i was going for... i wish it gave out extras this thing is difficult

[ThrillaDaMcColdKilla]

70,000 is actually when the fireballs starts to get a little freaky and hard to jump over.

its like the prgrammer designed it that way so every time you pass a level the jitterness increases.. at 800,000 its totally noticable.
