HD quality video or it didn't happen

I posted a glorious pic over at the Hamster Burrow.

I might've gotten farther, but my girlfriend locked herself out of the house and distracted me by frantically pounding on the door just as things were getting especially hectic in the game.

Wow...I thought I was doing good at, like, 150. This contest has gotten heated.

Is there going to be voting or something for the next game picked for this? I'd like to submit a couple of my games.

Voting is a good idea, I'll set up a thread with all the suggestions from here after this contest is over. So suggest away!

There's still about 6 hours left to beat Willy Elektrix's score of 312...any challengers? I'll be finalizing the score at midnight PST.

Beaten by Willy again! I left this contest until the last day, not enough time to master it.

I did manage to get 256 points to tie with James though. And I recorded a video (see here); no audio, sorry. I would have liked to have seen a video of that 312 point run.

TMC: I enjoyed watching your video. I would have liked to record my run, but I'm not really setup to do that. It isn't much different from your run though. It seems to me that the game ramps in difficulty at 60, 120, and 180 points, but I don't think it gets any harder after that.

Looking at the source, I see that the difficulty (speed of obstacles spawning) increases linearly up to the 129 point mark, and then increases by a factor of 6 and stays that way.

This was prerty cool to see people competing with my game. Thx for playing everyone!!

Out of curiosity, what's your high score? I'm assuming it's something awesome.

341. But i can't be sure that it was the released version. 249 I'm sure on the released version.
A good trick is something i learned playing tekken. Watch the enemy not yourself. Or in this case look where you want to go and not where you are.
I didn't try to compete cuz it's my game and i don't think that's fair. But I'm looking forward to the next game we compete for high scores with. I'm already a Turkey Killer genius, so look out when that comes around

Maybe the winner should always have the deciding vote on the next game. Just a thought.
