Moon Cresta clone:unsure

 

Edit Whoops mentioned in game description

 

From what I read on KLOV it's just changed sprites???? someone with knowledge of both could tell me. I can post the top 3 TG scores for Moon Cresta if that's the case :)

 

I had a quick 1 min game of this earlier while checking out the ROM DIP settings. This is like Scramble on my laptop - the screen is very narrow, takes up maybe 30% of the screen - any ideas how I can fix this it's really annoying.

It's much easier than Moon Cresta thankfully, Eagle was the US version licensed to Centuri. I know the Rat plays a mean game of Moon Cresta so watch out for on this one...

Is this meant to be played with buttons only? Serious q as my cab only has two buttons.

 

Nah, joystick is fine - that's what I'm playing with if I use the cab.

 

Edit: Hoping I don't regret this rash quick Joystick decision like I did with Hyper Olympics :lol

Okay, cheers for the info. Won't bother posting Moon Cresta TG scores then. Wonder why TG isn't tracking this game :huh:

Thanks - hope you don't regret either - probably makes far less difference on this one cf HO.

 

Also great to return to what is for me the high point era of arcade gaming. Just had a quick game and forgot about the surprise attack diagonal men :) a whole new surprise rediscovered, one of the aspects I enjoy about MGL.

No need to worry about Joystickgate 2. The arcade version in the states had directional buttons. Played it in the Funspot tournament in 2010. Space Invaders, Asteroids, Phoenix and Pleiades did as well. Always saw them with joysticks here.

 

I think they track the arcade version of Eagle but not MAME for some reason. Snow Bros is the opposite. They track MAME but not arcade.

Am I just a sadist - I thought it would be funny if Hyper Sports was nominated and it came up straight after Hyper Olympics instead of this game :lol

Not even going to bother updating the progress scores :redface

 

So you die and are rewarded by your ship coming back with double fire? :lol

 

Edit: Just worked out how to fix my skinny screen problem :cool: No more skinny picks after this one.

Still got the old skinny pix there :)

 

Yeah, don't know what's going on with that :unsure

Are you stirring or is this just some kind of random thought :lol

 

Just a random thought :lol Could you imagine having to play another button basher/joystick waggler after 2 weeks of Hyper Olympics :lol

That'll do for tonight. Still suffering from last nights efforts.

 

Whoops - missed your score somehow, updating the progress scores now :redface

Moon Cresta has better graphics and sound, this is like a budget clone

 

Last time we played Moon Cresta I think Rat cleaned up so look out!

Wish I knew why my pictures are coming out like this - it's playing full screen on my laptop now :realmad:

 

Pretty sure my pics changed when I last upgraded mame (maybe not quite as skinny as that). Looks fine anyhow when you click the thumb.

 

Test Pic... yep looks pretty skinny to me
