Yep.  Let 'em die early, don't pick up any in bonus rounds, and cheese your way to the end.

Yeah you can just sit there and turn on auto fire and rail all the mutants and gimpdick your way to the end and get the worst score ever.

ATTENTION: PEEPEE TOUCHERS.

You have until the end of the week to sort out high scoring to be immortalized in future runs of Atlantean.

I'll take the top 3.

lol, and the lowest 1.

How many copies of Atlantean sold and only three people appear to have actually played it.  How f*cking sad.  :(

Been playing the rom on my everdrive quite a bit. Finally got a score higher than 14k. 31,330 is my highest but I'm trying to beat it. I know that's pretty meh. I'm not good at this game, sadly. But i want to be!

Arkhan said before to let the humans get captured and then save them and plop them back on the ground, i believe? That's pretty difficult, but i try! Any other tips?

I am ashamed to admit that I haven't played this game in a few weeks.  With Arkhan's kick in the ass I decided to try my hand at endurance mode.  I only made 3 attempts and the first two was knocking the rust off.  I plan to play a bit more tonight and surpass the 100k mark.

Arkhan's most notable pro tip was, "Get your dicks out and play."  I personally haven't found this to aid in my scoring yet.

Nice, Desh.  I'll have to get back to it and give Endurance Mode a few more runs; I think my best so far was ~70k.

Don't forget you can grab more than 1 guy at a time. This lets you drop them off together, where they are a bit easier to protect :)

I will gladly take the game off anyone who wants to let go if it.

 

I'm serious.

I thought you guys might think besting 100k in endurance mode was too weak so I took Arkhan's advice and busted my dick out.

I'm not sure but, quite a few.  I learned a couple of techniques for saving some of the Atlanteans.  This leads me to believe that I could best my 123xxx high score on Normal mode.

Well I figured out how to stay alive so endurance mode becomes a "how much time do you have to rack up your score"



Here's the proof I could have gone on a lot more but was too tired to and just let myself get killed.

You've made Atlantean your bitch!  You wanna share your strategies?
