Insanity Contest Redux
« on: July 30, 2010, 11:37:31 AM »
Lets try this again minus the lolwar

I think we need to keep the Insanity train rolling.

So here is a little contest.

A high-score contest of sorts.

5 lucky weeners will get I'm Insane for Insanity copies of Insanity.  Scribbled on by yours truly.  You can then love them, burn them, ebay them for a retarded sum, or be like "I don't want that crap, keep it"

All you have to do is the following:

Play the game in predator mode, and see how far you get.

To get to predator mode, hold one of the 4 cardinal directions down while pressing Run to start the game.

I am not telling you which direction to press, only because now you get to try them all and see the other hidden stuff: Arcade Mode, HyperMode (good luck), and an early Pyramid Plunder Prototype!


To prove you are playing Predator mode, either:

1) film the whole thing with a camera and upload it to youtube! (cutting the video if you manage longer than 10 minutes)
2) Play in Ootake and use the video recording option and send me the file or use some other PC video recording thing and YouTube the video!
3) Take pictures (pause it or something) or Screenshots in an emulator.  You can pause it when you get shot and killt that last time and see your final score before the screen blacks out.
It is sort of lurpy, since theres that whole "I forgot to deal with high scores" thing, but I think we're all smart enough to handle it!

and the good news is, the Retrocade has highscore stuff.  No forgetting this time.

Keep checking Aetherbyte.com for news on the Retrocade.  Pyramid plunder is turning out excellent thanks to new graphical work.  No more of my crappy artwork.

I like chicken, I like liver, meow mix meow mix PLEASE DELIVER.

This may be a dumb question, but should I avoid playing either version of Insanity on my Duo or is one of them OK to do that with?

The official pressed copy is as safe as a commercial PCE CD game!  It is the real deal my man.  Feel free to play it to your hearts content.  I demo'd it for 16 hours on a Duo-R

the CD-R (CCAG lightscribe) copy is not as safe, as is the case with any CD-R

however it may be the safest CD-R ever since it barely ever loads any data unless you're doing CD Audio mode.

and, there is no such thing as a dumb question!

Thanks for clearing that up, Arkhan. I tried it out and Predator mode is fun. Are digital camera pics OK? I got 3490 on my first go and I'll keep playing to see how many points I can rack up. When does the contest end?

8100!

Oh my that was quite fun! Although I started loosing all my lives pretty much once I hit the 6k mark, was saved at the last second by another life :D

I'll probably have another go at it later.

SignofZeta: What a quintessentially PCEFX thread. Someone complains about nothing, multiple Bible-length posts discussing who's a bigger a$$hole follow. You're both pretty big a$$holes. Let's call it a tie.
