This is a bloody good game!

Now I've been playing it for about half an hour I've started to rack up a good score:

There I am, in top slot with 232119.

It's the 3rd best RGCD featured game ever!
The average game player is 33 years old.
The average age of the most frequent game buyer is 38 years old. 92 percent of computer game buyers and 80 percent of console game buyers are over the age of 18

They've only done 3 featured games :shock:
(unless your counting the reviews & downloads as featured games)

What would be your 1st and 2nd choice then?

For me, Typhoon 2001 is the best RGCD featured game.

I reckon Dudley will have Motorcross at no.2 and whatever this current one is at number 1.

Correct.

Although it was mostly a gag based on the fact I wrote the other 2 :)

How do you take screen shots like that?

Can't really prove my score yet so you'll have to just believe me or not.

Levels 1 to 26 = 1183876

Let me know how to do the screen shot and I'll post it.
Love

Its all on trust in this thread so no need for a screenie. Unless you want to of course. Then the easiest way is just to print screen and then crop it.

Just PrintScreen it, and then paste the pic into PaintShop Pro or PhotoShop or any other paint program you like, then save it as a JPEG or GIF.

Just take the one in the OP and photoshop it to your score.

Press the 'Print Screen' button on your keyboard (usually at the top above the cursor keys). Then open up Paint and press the 'Ctrl' and 'V' keys down together. Magic!

Just had a couple of quick goes. 1.16 million, level 30.
Nice update, but I remember Tempest X (the PS version) had bonus stages which don't seem to be in this.
Why retro? Because you never forget your first love.

LOL, you need to sign up with a pho hosting site. I use www.Photobucket.com
Then you can upload it to there and use the piece of code it gives you (the one starting [img] ) in your post on here.
