Pessimeister Posted September 27, 2022 Share Posted September 27, 2022 Pessimeister: 33, 640 Ouch! This is a savage beat 'em up. I think I nominated it once with Crime Fighters a while back. Two beat 'em ups in one MGL is quite unusual. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

terencew Posted September 28, 2022 Share Posted September 28, 2022 Hmm... this game has some shameless point pressing opportunities, and at least one infinite leech. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pessimeister Posted September 28, 2022 Share Posted September 28, 2022 Really? Can that be the case with a time limit? I did check the scores on highscore.com and saw that Shabaz had a 200 k run. But arguably that was from point pressing and not leeching. Interesting - I'm curious to know where that point is. Evan can maybe make sure we avoid it. Dumple has a 50 k run video on HS.com which is pure progress for the most part; bare minimum of retreating or beating "respawning" enemies. Top score on RetroUprising is 84 k - there's also an 81 k full clear. For my score I retreated from gun wielding enemies and held back a little on level 1. I eventually died just before the level 3 boss. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terencew Posted September 28, 2022 Share Posted September 28, 2022 As far as I can tell, you can avoid death by timeout by crouching. ANYWHERE. But then as soon as you stand up, you die. So if you have nunchaku, the extra range allows you to fairly safely pick off your enemies. From memory, doing this while a boss is on screen defeats the purpose, as you finish the round... I think. There's a 1CC no hit on YT that only scores 44k, so there's no way we're going to avoid pressing here - I guess just no crouching timeout exploit? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

terencew Posted September 28, 2022 Share Posted September 28, 2022 NOT A SUBMISSION, leeching to counterstop on stage 1. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pessimeister Posted September 28, 2022 Share Posted September 28, 2022 Wow! That illustrates all we need to know, thanks Terence. I tried to get it to work but failed - is it only when you've got the nunchaku and are ducking? I'll have to try again. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terencew Posted September 28, 2022 Share Posted September 28, 2022 Crouching avoids the timeout death, nunchaku gives you enough range to take out your enemies before they can hit you. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wan1993 Posted September 29, 2022 Share Posted September 29, 2022 Playing for the first time 😀 After I lost the nunchako my character loses dignity. lol 17.660 - Stage 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ace1942 Posted October 3, 2022 Share Posted October 3, 2022 11240 A coin muncher and not much fun or maybe it’s just me. Seems like the “I suck at this game-o-meter” for MGL53 is running at about 50% so far. As always I will keep trying when I get time and there is time left on the clock. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
