I know a few of you have this game, so let's see the high score.
My current high is 2557. Not that great, but a start.

I think my record is about 7000, but that's with more than three lives. This game is super-keen, BTW.
Damn, 7000. Your high scores always seem so unattainable to me.
I suck at this game and all other Robotron clones. :cry:
Practice young padawan, practice. And channel EPMODE.Quote:

Ummm... here's the thing
Games shouldnt need high score threads anymore. This shit should be handled by the game itself.
P.S. LOL @ PSN
I thought it was for the PC or something. It doesn't have an online scoreboard?
lol
No online score board, probably the biggest oversight for this one-man production. Still a great game.
The online leaderboard thing is more because the creater is batshit insane and feels that people's offensive names would act as unwanted graffiti or something. I mean, the guy coded the entire thing himself. Art/sound/programming. And I think it broke his mind.
edit: Here's the interview: http://www.gamespot.com/news/6181581.htmlIt's still totally worth it.Quote:
GS: Why no online leaderboards?
JM: There are two reasons. I was sort of uncomfortable with leaderboards. I looked at leaderboards for other games and I noticed all these weird names, sometimes offensive names, and I thought that was like the bad kind of graffiti. I like graffiti, but sometimes there are very offensive ones. I thought it would give a wrong impression of the game and move it away from what it was trying to be.
I also didn't want people to use the game as a way to be superior to someone, like, "I'm number one in Everyday Shooter so ***** you all!" That's not really the point of the game here. Though I have to admit [that] when you do play the game for score, that's fun. It opens up all these strategies, and that's why I included my high scores. I also included them to show that there's a lot to the game, that there is a way to score 1,000 points on the first level.
Also, when I was working on Everyday Shooter, before I was finished, I was already burnt out. This has been an ongoing battle to make a game that I like since '97. I was burnt out from working on the job and also doing the game. After signing on with Sony, it felt like I was finishing the game twice. I went through the process on the PC, and then doing it again on PlayStation 3. My energy level was fairly low. I can't justify why it took three months to port it. I look back and wonder what the hell I was doing.
So basically the "graffiti" excuse is bullshit and the real reason was because he was burnt out. That's too bad, leaderboards would have made the game even better.
That's retarded. That's the whole point of shooters, high score challenges.Quote:

Yeah, his guy can take his no leaderboards and shove it up his butt. Then make Wii games where no one cares.
Wah, no feature unrelated to the actual gameplay experience. Cry me a river.
Can you believe we're resorting to actually talking about the game and our scores, rather than just looking on a list? Oh, the barbarity!
4000-something, with more than three lives. I'll look it up in a bit.

I am gunning for Epmode score this weekend, maybe I will get to halfway point and call it success.
I'm cheating, though. 6 lives.
I won't even try regular 3-life games until I figure out how to actually kill the boss in stage 6.
My high score is seven million.
Gee, I wish there was a way you could disprove my ridiculous allegation. But there isnt! HAHA BEAT THAT SUCKERS
Reported.
You got it backwards. You have to give us a reason to believe you.Quote:

Thats what he gets for doing it all on his own.
No leaderboards? What a lazy douchebag.
3706, did really well in the first 2 stages (almost 2000 points), but then I suck at stage 3 and 4 because I hate those 2 stages.
i did finally get this a few weeks ago and im in love with it, im not breaking any records yet though.
2643
My high score is 4526, starting off with three lives.
I set that score about two weeks ago, and it was during that game that I had defeated the level 6 boss for the first time.
For the benefit those who don't know, beating the level 6 boss isn't required to complete level 6 (as he'll fade out after a period of time), but it is required to obtain one of the unlockable features.
