It's cold outside! Or maybe you're in a part of the world where you're escaping the heat. Fortunately, the weather hasn't made a dent in the flow of new gaming feats from young and old alike. And we have the proof!
For the edition of the Scoreboard Spotlight we'll sit down at the piano, go swimming in a truck, play some epic bass, go bouncing with a smile and shout “surf's up” so let's go!
Foolish gamer – Piano Tiles: Don't Tap the White Tile (iOS) – Points
foolish gamer wasn't shy about showing off his next level mastery of the classic iOS release Piano Tiles. Competing in Arcade mode on Faster settings, he tickled the ivories for over an hour - all the way to an amazing Twin Galaxies world record of 25,064 points. Congratulations!
Swaggers – Hill Climb Racing 2 (Android) – Distance
Not only did Swaggers go an epic adventure on the Backwater Bog, he taught his fully-loaded Hill Climber truck how to swim, which proved to be the difference-maker in a Hill Climb Racing 2 run that ended with a new TG record distance of 4,144 meters.
trivia212005 – Guitar Hero: Van Halen (Nintendo Wii) – Points
trivia212005 wrapped up a rockin' gig on Guitar Hero for the Nintendo Wii by leading Van Halen through “Ain't Talking 'Bout Love” with some great bass playing for a final score of 189,088 points.
Pat Larocque – Splatform (Atari 2600) – Points
Pat Larocque fired up Thomas Jentzsch's 2005 homebrew release Splatform for the Atari 2600 and put a spring in his bounce by taking the game's ever-smiling protagonist on a platformer journey that landed on the Twin Galaxies leaderboard with a new high score of 3,814 points.
Mr Flibble – Silver Surfer (NES) – Points
Mr Flibble answered the call of Galactus and set out to stop the forces of Magik Domain from tearing the fabric of space in a spectacular run on Silver Surfer for the NES. Investing many months in learning the ways of the surfer, Mr Flibble beat the game and toppled a 9 year-old record to claim first place with 829,900 points.
This covers our Scoreboard Spotlight for this week. As a reminder, these were just a few of exceptional records that were adjudicated and accepted recently. Every record that made it through verification and landed on our leaderboards has a well-deserved place in the Twin Galaxies gaming pantheon.
Keep scoring high, finishing fast, and game on!
