Mahlemiut confirm all 3 scores, then must be OK. Maybe here is problem with OS.

It's the 0.63 bug again. My fault, I completely forgot about it when I started playing last night. >:( some people are able to play it back, but...
when I get a chance I'll try to improve on it with tgmame62, let's see what happens then.

Remember, the bug appeared in
.63, so we use
.62 to avoid it.

yeah, uhhhh.... using the correct version to play it back is usually the FIRST thing you want to do, not the last. ;)
glad it works... thanks for the compliments, but it's not really "PERFECT".... or else I would have been able to play a lot longer :P

spv_shollow_1,088,720 - alphamame 62 dos
nice replay
iviewed it to 160,000 @ 100% (2 kills in a row!)
then i speed up to 600% for certain intervals
another death around 630,000
back to 100%
.inp size on alphamame is very small
one meg files are long games
how much are the big red & white flags worth?
real score should be - 1,088,780
way to kick the devil's ass in Florida !

Thanks! Corrected that score on the board, I can't seem to count apparently but it's fixed now.
Those 2 deaths at 160k were just downright embarrassing.
I swear I can't ever get a game going where I don't lose 2 men fast like that, it just never fails. It did make for an interesting recording though, coming back from the little 2 shot pea-shooter to kick some serious demon butt.
Full credit to BBH on my ability to achieve that score. I'd NEVER have gotten as obsessive about Satan's Hollow had it not been for him seriously raising the bar with his 652k score. Being able to watch the man's moves really gave me the kick I needed to get a real handle on this game.
I hope all this inspires some more SH players to join the fray. The game is quite intense and I continue to play here and there for the adrenaline rush (and also to stay warm in case someone wipes out my score in the near future, *cough* BBH *cough*).
PS - White flags 1k, red flags 10k, red&white flags 50k.
It would've been great had SH borrowed one other thing from Galaga, that being the 'stage' counter, that way we wouldn't have to add up all the flags PLUS count the skipped stages where you don't get a flag, just to know what your final stage was.

just for the record , it seems to go to 27 million
i lost track of how many times the score flipped
flags also do a partial roll over multiple times.
