Yeah, I made a note about that in the OP - you can't stop the Game Over screen so you just have to screenshot really quickly, sorry about that. :( You're still in the lead though!

 

[Mawa]

I noticed the Event when it was put up, just waited to get the right score to create some distance & strike >:).

I'm not sure if I'll have time to improve my score if one of you girls does get a better one, but I don't like losing, so I may try ;).

I don't think you'll find any version that stops at the Game Over screen. At best, you can find one that takes you to the "Enter your name, High Scorer!" Screen.

Speaking of high scores, I beat my Pacman score by some distance (breached the 1 lakh mark ^^). Update please :).

Pacman - 110,400

Pika Pika :chu:

 

[Mawa]

Okay so to get at least place #2 I'll post the core I had in reserve for when the time come.

478,681

[Nero]

lol how? you scored 52880 and my latest score was 54530.
btw i'll try to beat your 57200 asap :)

Right, sorry, I meant that as in my new score was actually an old score I'd kept for when you beat my older one to keep the competition going. It's been hard for me to play, I've been waiting on my Internet to be fixed and it's still not ready. Expect another score update though OtaKun and LegendChu, I've still got more Space Invader skill to go!

 

[Mawa]

I was so close :(

 

[Mawa]

I got iiiiiiit ! Is it too late??

514,817
Gimme that crown

Spoiler:

 

[Juno]

Nope, the event runs until June 11th! We still have some time to top that (jk I probably can't, I can't handle the speed at 470k+ :P)

 

[LegendChu]

Thank you to everyone who participated! The fun, competitive spirit was great to see, and a huge shoutout to LegendChu who managed to swing in at the end and steal the top scores for all three games. :P There was some really tough competition! I definitely had fun revisiting these retro games & challenging other members, and I hope you guys did as well.

(I also totally had a 495k score in Tetris that I forgot to upload :( but still happy with my final score here! I think we all did well.)

If you guys have any suggestions on what kind of games you'd like to see in the next showdown, please let me know!

Its called strategy. I got a high score, but waited till the final day to actually put it up, so everyone had lesser time to Ketchup (catch up) ;).

My fingers are hurting, please no more of these addictive games. Nah, I'm kidding, give us more classic games, it was fun ^^.

That can be arranged. Let me talk it over with the other mods about what kind of categories we want to do and we'll see if we can get something up by next week.

 

[Nero]

I'm definitely looking forward to the next event like this, I had a lot of fun playing Space Invaders as a competition, even if it wasn't all that close to how the original plays. Congrats LegendChu, you're clearly a league above all of us to just dominate the board like that, and thanks OtaKun for continually chasing me back down and the mods who organized this!
