Sounds very interesting. How many people were there playing or watching?

Any hints on how this is done? Is there a large bonus for something?

Not interesting ; just trapping an enemy into the floor close to a ladder, then jumping again and again on his head.
There is an input on Marp showing this technic (I don't remeber which one)

Yes,The method earns 1000 points getting on on enemy's head.
I think that there may be such how to enjoy it by you though it might be evil
ways.

Cool, thanks for the info guys.

The most interesting part to me is that it doesn't seem like you'd have enough time on one stage to reach the max score doing this. At 1000 per landing, you'd have to land on the enemies 1000 times to get a million. Unless there's some kind of bug in the program where it thinks you're continuously landing on the enemy so it keeps giving you points at a fast rate?

Of course, it is usually impossible.
Here, it is enabled by using an auto fire to input the right.
The input of the right is given to priority,when input at it right and left simultaneous, in MAME though operation is different.
