Space Giraffe leaderboard

[TodaysForgotten]

I know this won't stand but knowing I was there for a few hours makes me happy, lol.


So does anyone reckon 1billion might be broken at some point? I still don't have a clue what I'm doing and just try to survive the levels half the time. It's cool being around at the beggining of a game life when people are still working out the best scoring methods.

1 Billion is totally possible. I know i could hit over 1 billion. My score isnt even done yet. But im not really concerned with being number 1 or having 1 billion. I may get 1 billion just to be the first. I like being the first to things...not necessarily first.

thanks fog.

Hey whats up guys. Yea, the score is for real and yea, it could be much higher. I know some of you are saying it dont mean anything until i do hardcore. I have a game in progress on level 52 with 322m. 9 guys left. I hope to complete the game and maybe even take down Jeff's score in the process.

But anyhow, just dropping in as this seems like a cool community and saying a warm hello.

Good luck on level 64...

ya know, the first time i got to this level i didnt die. I died twice on my run. I was so tired of playing space giraffe that i started dying on those ticking time diamonds. Died 3 times on 69. I never die on that level.

I want to say to all the people that spanked my arse an put me ( last
time I checked ) in position 21 that I am busy doing various thigns
and in this moment I can't just spend all time trying to return back up
in some better position

</patetic excuse>

Well no .. it's true, I could spend more time playing but I am doing
quite a number of other things as well.

To be honest that score so far represents "my personal best" I am, believe me or not, among
the ones that "never finished Space Giraffe".

I still have to reach level 100, I never been there yet I am not so skilled
as Yak to play SG

So when you'll see me at level 100 it will be the first time in my life as well I'll get there

And I am looking forward to it.

Now back to this forumale .. there's a fucking thing I can't understand in this ...

I think I know the trick now, but in my 1-70 run, I went down from 9 to3 lives on 64. then kept those lives and earned a few more until 70, then got my arse well and truly handed to me.

Funnily the diamonds weren't the problem for me. On a game like this where a lot of your reactions are based on different types audio/visual/tactile feedback, I find it interesting how everyones "Achilles heel" seems to be different.

I play aggressive in which idiot things will happen. I told myself, "self", do not play aggressive when you have under 5 lives. Self didnt listen to well. Not sure i could have finished the game, but i feel i could have probably went into the low 90s if i heeded my own advice. I dont even know if i want to attempt to do another 1-100 again anytime soon though. Its deflating when you are doing so well and then poof. Only 100 more levels to go.

1 billion just got busted open^^ well done sir

I just beat all 100 levels for the first time. Now I'm looking on that 1-100 achievement. Anyone have a rough Idea how long that might take in 1 session?

[ManicMiner]

I reckon you are looking at a good 3 hours... maybe more

Took Yak about 3 hours I think.

uhm, 1 billion zapped by TodaysForgotten, nice job! And he's still lots of air, level-wise.

I started just for fun on Level 1 to see how far I would get. Level 68 finally brought me down, 158 million, rank 12 on the hardcore leaderboard. Damn, only missed the top ten by 5 million or so. Actually, I couldn't believe while playing how far I am^^ Didn't die on level 64 again, hehe. But the last 15 levels or so I played it safe, always trying to get six pods to keep my lifes around three, so i didn't get much score on those last levels.

Anyway, that was a blast. What a great game^^

Kemper is saying this in reference to your high score being beaten.

[korruptor]

And it's been slaughtered, in like, a few days. Rev needs to get his tenner out.

*sigh* I got to level 82 (with a score of 321mil). I really, really want to be one of the first to get to 100 in one run. I think I'm going to have to get loads better at keeping my lives in those later stages. The thing is I wasn't even going for score but it's just too tempting, then you get yourself killed. And after level 70 it's pretty hard to farm lives. grrrr!

Still absolutely loving the game though. And unlike every single other game on my 360 I don't use custom sound tracks. The one's on there are just too good.
