Chuckie Egg never gets old. I spent a good part of Friday evening playing it.
Laser Snake is cool and quite addictive. It's nice to discover new games that are enjoyable to play. I might try to better my score on that.
Ship of the line - I still need to get to that one...

Here are my scores:
Chuckie Egg: 42,930
Laser Snake: 6,260

Clebin's missus speaks very highly of it.

I enjoyed playing Chuckie Egg, as usual.
Can't say the same for Laser Snaker, though ...

Had a calling to replay Chuckie Egg this morning. Finally passed level 8 for the first time ever and (spoiler alert!) let the bird out the cage.
New Chuckie high score of 89,050

I don't think I've ever got off level 24, doesn't matter how many lives I have when I get there I always fall to pieces, as I did this time.

Anyway, my scores on the doors so far are:
Chuckie Egg: 273910
Laser Snaker: 13780

and finally, ship of the line. It is a bit dull :)

I just completed a session of Ship of the Line and to my disgrace I was not promoted from midshipmen. Instead I got murdered by my crew :evil:
I must be doing something wrong. Oh well, maybe clebin's missus could give me a tip or two...

Here's my game over screen:

As always, please check if I got your scores and maths right. Another strong showing this week from that man clebin, but the boys at # 2 & 3 are not so far behind, and overall the whole board is nicely spread out, so - antyhing can still happen!

Plus, rememeber it's THE REDEMPTION WEEK! You can totally change it all up by playing games from previous rounds and improving your scores, or in case of the new boys in town ([mention]PROSM[/mention] ,[mention]Spud[/mention] ,[mention]stupidget[/mention] ,[mention]cmal[/mention] ), adding the ones they have missed on.
[mention]Rev_Stuart_Campbell[/mention] has already been at it. By the way, Rev, did you not submit a Chuckie Egg score? I thought you did, or was it Laser Snaker only?
@Pegaz: you should try the Bonus games you missed, that's like 9 points for just playing each of them once :)
