Wanted another simple "shoot stuff" game this week.
I actually remember this one from the arcades. Wonder what's the problem with the sound emulation?
The TG record on this one strongly suggests marathonability. I will therefore impose the usual one hour (216,000 frames) time limit. Only the score up to that point will count for GEGOTW.
If you use the default controls, .84 shouldn't be a problem. Use WolfMAME .83 or .84

Please record in WolfMAME .83 or .84
I'd hate to see you wind up with the top score and not get credit for it.

there is a point in the game where those red lines just get to be too much .
the spiders reset around 50 - 55k .

I have a method on how this could be marathoned, if I ever get bored enough one day maybe I'll give it a shot.

Hmmm... wonder if that explains the TG record?

Yeah, it definitely would. It isn't too difficult to do I don't think, either, you just can't make huge mistakes.
