Excellent Blasteroids upload! Very impressive.

Ive been waiting to see someone good at that game for years.

Thank you. My highest in the arcades is about 3.3M, but you have to
hang around and kill a lot a bandits to get a score like that.

<p>

I wonder if we will see any serious challengers now that people can
see that the game can be finished on one credit.

<p>

Anyway, I'm taking a break from Blasteroids for a while. Next game on
my hit list: Vindicators.

one.

<p>

yes, excellent job Scorpion! I remember spending quite a few tokens
just to get through the game in the arcade, so it was great to see
you finish on one credit. I never would have thought it was possible.

<p>

Question: do the special crystals that restore full fuel always
appear in the same sectors?

Yes. The crystals, number and types of asteriod, number and types of
enemies as well as the powerups that they drop are always the same.
This way you can be prepared with a lot of powerups for when you face
Mukor (which is necessary for the final few times).

left and have you finished it(Vindicators)on one credit before?

<p>

I had about 3 more stages to go. My best in the arcades was finishing
with about 1.3M, but I'm not sure what difficulty the machine was on.
With more practice I hope to be able to finish on one credit once
again...
