Arcade Bandit: Rare ROMS Finally dumped

Just got finished playing a few games. Love the new fixes. So can you die as many times as you want? Only thing that seems to end my game is time running out. My high is 7,550 (Maybe 7,750). I may have to get me a computer and wire a I-pac and put in a cabinet. What would be the best conversion cabinet for this? I am thinking a Midway or Tatio? Could do a Moppet since I already have one wired with a I-Pac just need to add a computer. Building a dedicated would be sweet but way beyond my skills. I think I could put up some better scores with a joystick.

Yes, you can die an unlimited amount of times. The only thing that kills you is when the 70 seconds are up (time resets after each level).

The best conversion cabinet is... Sundance! But that is not very practical. Any Cinematronics cabinet would be most "authentic," but those are relatively uncommon. A Moppet cab would be pretty cool, too. Especially since you already have one wired up.



And a note to everyone else: I have not given up on this game! I am currently working on two more stages that should be done in about a week.
 
JUst got done playing quit a few games. Are the levels in random order? The first level always seems to be the same but the ones after that sometime change. I stiil haven't beaten my high of 7750. It's frustrating but yet I can't stop playing.
 
there does seem to be one glitch in the game. If you touch the cab when you are charged up from a capacitor the cab disappears and there is no way to clear the level. It would be cool if this were fixed or possibly something like if you touch the cab while you are energized from the cap the cab moves to a different location on the screen.

I did fix this glitch, as far as I can tell. Did you download the new version? If not, here it is: http://www.mediafire.com/?3mgpak48l3rrmkc
 
Quotes from various people here:
"You need a stage where you fight off other colletors"
"Only thing it is missing is some different levels or to have intermissions"
"Hyde you have to add some complexity to this baby"


Well, it looks like this game is not finished after all! By popular demand, I think I'll add some different levels to this game. Anyone have any suggestions for more content? Keep in mind that each additional level type will take about 2-3 days to create.



Sorry about that. :( But I don't think there is a way to convert an exe file to Mac.

You need to add the KLOV PRICE POLICE somewhere...

...and maybe ADMIN going around temp banning people...
 
New Level Bring the game back

In light of recent events, I propose a new level where the sheriff tells you to bring the game back so they won't file charges. You have to leave the game on the property while avoiding wolfs and raccoons at night.

....AND the Meth Cookers!
 
....AND the Meth Cookers!

Better yet, another game collector that will tell you it is contaminated with Meth. If he catches you get has a speech bubble that says "meth" and you have to go back to the beginning of the level. Kind of like the green guy in Q-bert that changes your colors back!
 
Nice ideas, guys! I'll try to see how I can incorporate these into the game. I'm currently working on Robotron and Frogger style stages.
 
I thought the Boost were robots until I sat and watched the attract mode. Good thing I was drinking Kool-Aid I probablt would have spit it up due to laughing.

I thought the Boost was cans that you were avoiding!

Slick and Sam! I hate them!
 
Nah, this is why you need to watch the full attract mode (60 sec.) :D

Collect the Moon Pies and Boost for bonus points!

My comment was a reference to Noice's "fuuny boost thread" :D
 
ahhhhhhhhh This game is driving me crazy. After the fixes it would give me 3 easy levels then 4 I finally figured out then a hard level which sometimes came on level 4. Now the hard level comes either on 2 or 3 (Usually 3) and the easy level I had on 3 never shows up. The hard level is the one with no energizer. Has anyone passed it yet? Closest I have come is 3 tokens left.

I think I am addictated.
 
High scores? I've become addicted to this and hit 11,600. It gets hard fast. :eek:
