Does anyone know why Solarian won't record my high scores? Do you
need to get past level 4 or something before it starts bothering to
keep track?
thanks.

If so, I don't think the scores are counted. Just click the mouse button to begin a game at level 1. ------------------------------- Robert Dominy NASA Goddard Space Flight Center

If you're playing the game by typing '1' to get to level 1, it won't save high scores. Also, if you switch off the machine without quitting gracefully, it won't save high scores. By just clicking the mouse button you play, as opposed to practicing levels 1 through 9. While we're on the subject, what's the current high score? 352,950 (level 10) is mine!

I would've done better if I hadn't played so badly... only way I got it was by getting about 3 6000-pt gifties...
