    You have to hit the space bar to start.... if that doesn't work make sure you click inside the box of the game first. You can kind of tell when you're "detached" from the game, the mouse pointer is a hand instead of an arrow.

    Considering how well it kicks my ass I wish I never figured out how to start.:laser:

    LOL - as I said, please don't make me score any more on that game. It took nearly an hour. I still had more than 8 lives left (the most it shows) but decided it was time to stop, so I quit at a nice even number.

    You've earned Asteroids. Now let me have Space Invaders.

    Sounds like a deal! :good:
    I was curious how you managed to hit exactly 150000. Once you get up to those upper levels it's pretty easy to keep going assuming no bad luck clearing off that bottom row at the start. I know I lost 4-5 ships just because I got greedy.

    44890 in Galagon WTF! :worthy:

    I'd say you were in the zone...what's next bending spoons with your mind or did you figure a way to port a 50 shot into your keyboard.

    You get an extra life every 3,000 or 3,500. I manage to live - even on the hardest level - about 6,000 points between each lost life. The longer I play, the more extra lives I have sitting around. I got to exactly 150,000 and just sat there and let them shoot me.

    Put it this way - if you can break that record, more power to you, because I don't think I can repeat that one again. That's much harder than the "real" Galaga.
