Reward: $25 (usd)

Deadline for submission to MARP: March 25, 2005 2359 hours GMT

Further Bounty: none

From the wonderful folks at Epos, who brought you such other classics as...Drakton.

Never heard of this one before MAME, but it looked like something different. An interesting concept, but pretty primitive graphics and control for 1984.

While each level is timed, so there are no infinite leeching issues, "point maximizing" in this game is really boring and doesn't involve much skill. I think the players will have more fun if we score for GEGOTW purposes by level reached. Ties will be broken by earliest submission.

One hour time limit in case anyone becomes sufficiently skilled to marathon it. No one should have to listen to the sound in this game for more than an hour.

Use WolfMAME .94

There's not actually anything being spoken by the fembot that you can't read here in the forum or see by watching the submissions at MARP.

It's just for fun.

Results:
1st: destructor
2nd: BBH
3rd: diabolik

4 bonus point to des for a total of 14.

2 bonus points to diabolik for a total of 7.

7 for BBH for 2nd place.

A little surprised that the previous top 2 scores didn't fall this week, although this may be largely because I decided to rank by level reached.
