After doing this point challenge I think some rules should be added to the "View Rules" area of this game.

Currently the rules are:

• Player may freely choose the starting stage.
• No continues allowed.

What I found during my gameplay is that you can point grind for lives (20k and then every 30k after) and there are spots that can have this easily abused (the dogs in Stage 1 can easily net 35k each time). I also found that the game loops back to Stage 1 after completing. And I also found that after completing the game, you wont see your official "final score" until you press start and loop back to Stage 1. Because of these findings I think some additional rules should be added to be clearer.

Suggested Additional Rules:
•Player cannot use lives acquired from points (due to point grinding abuse)
•Player starts with 2 lives, and can acquire an extra 1up in each level. This means a Player can use a total of 9 lives total (if they pick up all extra 1ups in each stage).
•Your scoring attempt ends when you lose your last available life (as outlined above) .

Let me know if there are questions. I loved running this game and hope others do in the future, but want to ensure there isn't a forever loop. Thanks!
