Congratz man! I just recently got my Crazy Climber back in order. And It now WORKS!
I love it! I never played a game even similar before. So far I have only just gotten to the second building. Need to practice some more. :)
 
Holy crap you gotta submit that to TG and claim your WR. Anytime you can take down a record that's stood for that long that no one has come near you gotta submit it.
 
yah---

You've got to tape it to submit it :)

I've contacted them before and they'd love to see it. I just can't do it all the time. You've got to have the right alignment of the stars. The last time I got that high was last May or so and I play pretty regularly.
I keep saying I'm going to set up a recording apparatus, but I'm pretty lazy.


That was done with 3 men to start and one bonus- default TG settings.

This game, I made it to the 10th building. They repeat every 4 buildings, so you know basically what to expect. There is a LOT of luck involved in what the game throws at you. Several places exist where there is no escape depending on what's currently being tossed.

My real grail is to make it through a set of buildings 1-4 without losing a man. That would theoretically prove that you could play forever.

Sometimes I get so mad at it, I could just give it away. Others, I feel pretty good right now...

I wish you lived closer. Not only would I love to see some your play but I would definitely help you out with this to see this ancient record fall. There are some really, really great CC players out there but this is just on another level. Do it man!
 
I agree, great score! I've played alot of CC (both arcade and MAME) and haven't come anywhere near that. The game just throws so many random things (and in some cases, unpassible) it's hard to get that high. Those Crazy Climber signs on the 4th building are BS. It also starts throwing more things at you if you don't die than if you do. Not many games do that.

Great score :D I know how you feel, some days the hands just aren't working and I don't even want to look at the machine. Other days you can be in the zone and just jam up the buildings.

The random nature of the game is the tough part too. I agree that if the "stars aren't aligned" there is no way you can get a good score. I've been in the 400k range, but other games I'll struggle to get 200k.

Definitely one of the games that takes a lot of skill to play well.
 
I've only ever seen the 4th building ONCE. Of course I play in MAME with crappy microswitch sticks...
 
My MAME high is about 177K. I hit the 4th building and my last death was from the falling CC sign. It came out on the opposite side first, then on the side I was on, so I don't think it's just a matter of picking the correct side. It's just luck, as far as I can tell. Oh, and I played that one using the keyboard :D
 
Are you located near Hanahan, SC? I think that's where TG ref Stephen Boyer is located. I'm sure he would totally be into watching some of your games even though like you said you couldn't really predict when another massive score might occur...he might be able to help you with future setup for submission, etc.
