I came ever-so-close to getting through wave 12.

If you can't play at all, you might need to enable ActiveX in your web browser settings, or better still, just go to www.romantion.net and download the MAME emulator for your OS, and some MAME roms. I discovered this site recently while looking for Joust 2.
All downloads are free and small filesizes, but I think there may be a daily limit. |

I haven't played this in almost a couple of months, but I broke my old record. This game went very well (388,000); I only lost two men needlessly the whole time.
I hung in there for the last 150,000 or so with only one man or no men, only barely making it to the next free man (every 25,000 points) over and over. As you can see (below), I nearly made it though Wave 17 (nearly all the enemies are gone in the wave). I really thought I was going to make it, but then a missile bounced off the bottom wall. I saw it coming, but at that split-second I couldn't move out of its path because I would have gotten hit by another one; my last man got nailed just as I was shooting another missile about to hit.
