First try - 420k pts didn't know what the blocks did. Second try - Started mashing differnt buttons while microing space bar to figure it out on my own. 585k. Third try - Reluctantly read the tutorial scored 1,234,000 pts or something like that. Fourth try - Learned that you can have multiple power ups at once. Also learned the secret aspect of the game; sticky keys owned me. screenshot enclosed: ![[image loading]](http://img355.imageshack.us/my.php?image=ownage6co.jpg) Fifth try - Sticky keys owned me again 998k pts. Sixth try - 1,741,000 level 37. Stickey keys still owning me. Changing shoot to Ctrl and Absorb to Alt. 7th try - Realizing the new controlled power of Ctrl+alt Combination proceeds to own 2,161,000k pts level 42 ![[image loading]](http://img395.imageshack.us/my.php?image=s4co.jpg) 8th try - ![[image loading]](http://img362.imageshack.us/my.php?image=87nt.jpg) On September 20 2005 15:59 Regentropfen wrote: Screenshots please.

 This is really a huge honor, I have spent many a bleary eyed night watching BW replays from this site and reading progamer news. To answer some questions: Yes yellows are much rarer. Most encounters are 2red 2blue 2green 1yellow, to give you some idea, although there are some I decided to have multiple yellow enemies to mix it up. They are very powerful, so I make them special About the framerate problems: Unfortunatley your video card is not to blame. In fact Invalid Tangram uses no 3D accelleration, and this is the problem. One restriction put on us at The Guildhall for this project was that it could not use DirectX/OpenGL - just pure Win32 API calls for drawing. My suggestion is to make sure you have the latest build, turn on FASTBLOCKS, and start from 320x240 and work you way up until it is acceptable. Nice score PanoRaMa - almost as nice as the top score from the 'Show of Games' I earned :D Check out the site and you can download the high scores file from that event, which has the best scores from all The Guildhall students that became addicted. Please let me know if any of you have suggestions on further improving the game. Even though it is turned in and graded, I have a strong interest in continuing to evolve it. | ||

I have changed the resolution to 640x480, got 30FPS and it turned out that my crappy 1M score was not caused by low frame rate but my lack of skill | ||
