I figured since someone requested this, I'd ensure there's going to be some scoring goodness had!

Marathon settings this time 'round to ensure it doesn't discourage many. :)

Just out of curiosity, why is one track marathon when the only real difference in game play (other than bonus) is you get 1 more man? Isn't marathon usually used for a track that can be played longer (i.e. games that give lots of free men) vs tournament, which usually gives 3 men (or 5 in some cases) and may have harder settings. Just thought it was kinda strange, that's all :mrgreen:

Im havin trouble stabbing the fish, i stick the knife right in their heads, and then i die.

grrrrrrrr, useless collision detection.

This simply mirrored the settings for Jungle Hunt/King. Also note you get the 3x Bonus whereas tournament gives you no finishing bonus addons.

Yeah, I know...It still doesn't make the game play any longer though. :P

Man is this a frustrating game. Gotta unlearn my Jungle Hunt habits I guess.

can't seem to come up with this ROM. Tried my normal places. Back to the drawing board.

Gave it a try, and I'm pretty horrible at it so far :wink: I did notice, though, that button 2 lets you automatically skip to the next board. Is this normal? Is it allowed? You miss points of course, which is a negative, but still it seems quite "not right"

Hmm.. that'd be a "No way sir". Thanks for the notation!

Man this game is hateful!

I have a score I'm ready to submit, but I'm not sure how. (it's not very impressive, but it's a start) The "email a ref" box on the main page doesn't allow file attachments as far as I can see. Someone care to point me in the right direction?

Thanks!

I believe you submit it just like a regular score, maybe make a notation in the note box at the end that it's for the Monthly MAME challenge
