Spectatorwill look out for this, but I have no idea how. I’ve been in the minestorm several times after that, but everything o.k. Also had a score multiplicator. Perhaps I had 2 enemy ships attached as this happened.
Not a bug, but today I had warp failiure 3 times in a row, lucky they were only single enemy.
The last time I’ve played there was no shop menu after lv5 (perhaps I was still hammering on joypad and skipped it somehow)

Spectatorshure, only realized that other enemies light up bright and he’s not. already managed to beat him twice.

SpectatorDo you per chance remember whether you had a multiplier when you entered the Minestorm?
no idea, it’s possible
about the 1st boss – ist it difficult to light him up more when hit?

Spectatortested the calibration on my no-buzz vectrex. working fine on this machine.

@vtk thanks for your hints – managed to get over 100000 points twice now. Also was not aware that get minestorm levels give so much bonus. Also getting better there ๐
Finally managed to defeat the 1st boss but got stuck in the kamikaze lv28 with the ships flying in zig zag – hard one!had my first crash when entering the minestorm – screen went black and a continous sound (don’t remember which level).
I realized that the blinking of the 1st boss is hardly visible. Difficult to determine if he is hit or not.
Got a suggestion to make the achievements screen more sexy:
tried to use not too many lines. The idea is to show the symbol when a player got the achievement.nic_lobo
Spectatorforgot to say hi…. Hi to all ๐ Already love this challenging game and am very happy have the honor to test.

SpectatorDownloaded beta 16
There is no โsoundโ in the options menu (no music) โ so probably the buzz of the last note is echoing endlesslyโฆ
fixed now
on the Havoc level there is always a circle (like the little man is riding a bubble unicycle) is that normal?
I’m using a digital controller now and it’s quite difficult to steer the man. It would be easier if there was a jump button.Think my learning curve is pretty slow – I reached my 1st boss level today, but only had the single shot. Is it possible to defeat him with the single shot? I always had the small “bats” between me and the boss.
I hate the warp failure when there are multiple enemies (but Captain Kirk also hated warp and transporter failures and had to deal with them) , I think I just have to learn the strategy to beat them.
Perhaps it would be nice to display a screen with the background story at the beginning.

SpectatorNico โ pause mode now ok with string printing? Should I change the achievements?
fonts in pause menu are fine now. achievements look good.
Beta16 feels soo different with all the sound effects. Great to have proper audio feeback now!

Spectatorthanks Helmut ๐
unfortunately I’m really bad at this game. So I’ve only managed once to get through the Minestorm.
There was my ship and a “meteor” – think I should have done something (could not manage to move the ship).I assume this would have been the entry to a platformer level?
Perhaps there could be a howto screen. Sad to be sent to the next level without having the chance (cause not knowing what) to do something.
Edit: the ship is moving, but centered … realized it now

Spectator@vtk – thank you very much. programmed my 1st chip today ๐
Vectorblade_Beta9.bin was flased successfully and is working fine on my vectrex ๐Malban metioned in a pm “PARALLEL 32DIP”.
So I’ve chosen “SST39SF020A @PLCC32” for the IC in in the Xgpro Software. Is this right or should it have been just “SST39SF020A”? -
