Boulder Dash Part 2

Perhaps if I post enough scores M may eventually notice that I have got more than 289K...

Then again, maybe not.

I'm now at the point where I can finish all of the 5 selectable Worlds and most of World 6 but I have, as yet, not managed to complete it on one credit.

I have completed World 6 by continuing and it has 6 levels and I have got to within a sniff of finishing 6-5. I just need to stop losing lives stupidly and I should be there.

I'm holding back on submitting any scores to TG as there is a bit of a backlog with the MAME scores at the moment.

 

[favouredson]

It looks like the backlog is clearing up a bit...

I will have to have some games over Easter to see if I can get it completed.

Aaaaargh!

I got to the end of the final level and died stupidly.

At the end of World 6-6 there is a blockage of rocks but there is also an octpous with tentacles that detroy rocks. To get to the exit you have to clear a path for the tentacles so that they can clear your path for you.

You also have to make sure you don't run into the tentacles...

Here's the octopus.

(You can just see the exit bottom-left.)

And here's me dying stupidly with plenty of time left...

 

[favouredson]

I have finally completed the game on one credit.

Here's a little tableau of the end sequence...

It is quite a disappointing ending, to be honest.

If you lose at roulette you get thrown out of the casino and then a fire starts mysteriously.

If you win (I did this time) then a pile of diamonds fall on you, killing you and a fire starts mysteriously.

You don't even get any bonus points.

Fairly burst that hi score buddy well done

 

[favouredson]

Annoyingly, the score on completion was 50K less than the previous one.

 

[favouredson]

589K score verified.
