Pretty cool! My personal best is 65000 (first being 17100). I just use Down + Peck to take care of balloons and enemies.
i thought this game was in French because of the words Poulet and Toque 😆
@VarikAres there is a good reason why this game sets us back to the beginning of the game after every Game Over:
it wants us to replay earlier levels — that have become too easy to just scrape by — in a more skillful and challenging way to get a higher score
tip: collecting gems is a distraction.
to score big, you must maximize stock bonus and time bonus.
don't worry about stock bonus at first: as you practice to beat levels faster, you will naturally lose less stocks
It's been a million years since this cart hit the streets, it's still a mean game and fun, but it's got a glaring element showing it's age: The frame rate!
So I hacked around a bit on the numbers to make this an 'arcade edition', but while digging through the code, I realized...it's hella clean! I could hack in the attract mode and or the thing I want most: high score table!
Anyway, dunno if you're still around. The code in the 1.0 version has notes about stuff you still didn't add and of course, empty functions show their intent...it's kinda fun playing around with what you've got already. This doesn't do any of the 'weird stuff/extended ideas' I tried out personally, it's as straight forward as possible, but the ground enemies are ALL a lot more aggressive BUT a lot of the peck combos you know and love will work just fine. I also adjusted slightly the prize spreads from balloons (just slightly) :)
If nothing else, maybe this hack might inspire you to graduate this to 1.1! :P
Edit: Didnt know the bbs editor will drop your cart after uploading if you want to look at the main editor...lol reuploaded!
