Golden Era Game of the Week – Game 3


The Game: Elevator Action

romname: elevator



1st Place on MARP: 150.650 by Skito


Deadline for submission to MARP: June 25, 2012 19.59 hours GMT



This game has been already in GEGOTW (viewtopic.php?f=20&t=11629) and, like Phoenix, also this game has a superb score here on MARP.
Differently from Kung Fu master and Phoenix, your fellow coordinator has little memories about this game, not much played in my city: I only played it on Italy vs France here on MARP and my score was very poor :( , also if I think this is a very interesting game !
Have fun !

i have never played this game before!!
at first it looks like impossible mission on the c64.
pretty basic gameplay.
good luck everyone!!!

Tiny improvement - I keep switching keys for fire/jump on my laptop but haven't found a combo that prevents me from pressing the wrong key :x

Heh, I do the same thing on 2 button games. So much so that when I play Bubble Bobble, I map jump to be "up"...seems more natural to me that way (probably from playing it on the C-64 years ago)
