it appears that you played with difficulty on easy when it's supposed to be hardest, and you short-changed yourself on the bonus life setting.

Hi Richard,
It looks like you played on the incorrect settings this is the "Hardest" difficulty track

Hey man thanks for the info on my blunder I'll adjust my setting on MAME and try again for a high score video.

jakegibson85 · 01-05-2022, 08:48 AM

Hey man thanks for letting me know I really thought I had this one right with the settings and difficulty but alas I was incorrect.

jakegibson85 · 01-05-2022, 08:56 AM

I think I figured out what I did wrong or how I effed up, that was an old run I was sitting on before I really looked at the rules I kinda turned it on and off I went type situation, same thing happened with my first 1942 submission I short changed myself a life a the start. I just checked my mame settings now for Galaga and they're all good and proper for the tournament track. :) so yeah silly overlook mistake on my part
