Title: Re-shuffle of arcade.
Post by: Shockwave on January 23, 2007
Some of the games are great, some are not as popular.
I am going to re-shuffle all the games when I reset out the high scores.

Some will go, some new ones will be added.

If there is any game / games in particular that you want to keep in the arcade please post them below so I know not to delete them.

Thanks :)

Hey.

good idea.

Please don't remove Znax, I really like that one.
In addition, would be cool to have another try on tetris
after you resetted the highscore - I really would like to beat
you on this once ;-)

Please don't delete Burger Time, it's one of the best games I've played for a while. That squid hunting game does suck a lot though, no-one seems to be playing it, I got a high score, but it seemed like such a waste of time and effort.

Try playing the squid game on a laptop with no mouse!

- Video Poker

I decided to add the new games to see what you all think of them.
The shit ones will be pruned at the beginning of Feb :)
Title: Re: Re-shuffle of arcade.
Post by: Shockwave on January 24, 2007
If all goes to plan I will be adding most of these tomorrow;

hot rocks (Mega asteroids clone)
cash beast (superb fruit machine)
sonic the hedgehog (faithful conversion of sega game)
galagon 2004 (galaga)
lunar command (missile command)
SD Thrust (thrust!)
star castle :-)
xevious (arcade shooter)

I am sure that not all of them will work.. I tried to add rick dangerous and castlevania today. Both installed byt castlevania crashes and rick dangerous will not submit a high score...

We'll see how it goes with the other ones.

Those news sound excellent, shocky.

Especially looking forward to see Thrust online ... wish you good luck
getting them to work - and of course thanks a lot for your work !!!

Jetpac looks exactly like the spectrum game - I suspect it's an emulation.  Cool though, cos when I get off the laptop I'm going to get such a humungous score on that :)

You know that ants has a bug? (no pun intended) it's impossible to score more than 44...
Title: Re: Re-shuffle of arcade.
Post by: Shockwave on January 25, 2007
The good news is that all the new games worked except Sonic the Hedgehog but I added Puzzle Bobble instead of that. The only future change to the arcade in the meantime will be to prune the shit games. Enjoy them all :)

@SW:

Thanks a lot, Shocky. Cool news. It's a good decision to exchange certain
games from time to times. I like the new additions ;)
Title: Re: Re-shuffle of arcade.
Post by: Shockwave on January 25, 2007
You're welcome mate. Hope you enjoy the new ones :)
Title: Re: Re-shuffle of arcade.
Post by: benny! on January 25, 2007
The new games are really fun to play !!! Good choice, shocky.
Already got some highscore - but I guess these won't last for
long  :-[

One question :
Shouldn't be the lowest tries at Darts rank first in the high-
score-list ?
Title: Re: Re-shuffle of arcade.
Post by: Shockwave on January 25, 2007
Yes. I'll see if I can fi it :)
Title: Re: Re-shuffle of arcade.
Post by: Shockwave on January 26, 2007
Benny, checked Darts, the less throws you take, the higher the score so it seems to be working ok :)

You guys simply will not believe your eyes in about 20 mins when I add some more games of what I managed to get for us...

You're most welcome. By the way, I fixed the darts, you were right about it.  :) Cheers for letting me know. I am going to have a look in the arcade in a minute to see how many trophies I have left :)
