Let's be honest though, Razoff wasn't really much of a looker either...

He did try to kill Rayman so he deserved those 3 hits in the last area for extra points.

You can keep hitting him in the previous part after he 'dies' as well, at least three times I believe.

I've seen that before and it took me hours to actually do it. Even then, I ended up with 767,000 and haven't played since.

I haven't played for years. A few glitches have sort of rendered the score system redundant, which probably explains the lack of enthusiasm in recent times.

I kind of just did what I could and then had to give it a break, as it becomes stressful. I'm still happy with the score I got though.

My score I think is at 701000 and it was my first scoring run. I think I can do better but I’ll wait til I have more free time.

I don't even know if I can be bothered to try improve my score tbh, it feels like it ends up more annoying than fun.

Yeah, and it takes up so much time to make even a 1000-point improvement, it's just not worth the investment. I still love and am fascinated by the game, though.

True. Once you get to a certain high point it gets more stressing rather than fun to play for points.

I do love the game itself, but at times you have to take the scoring element out of the equation and just enjoy the game.

You mean the Playable Camera Mode ones? They suck…

I wouldn't do stuff like that, the only glitches I used were SJ's that Mand talked about.

I've never even attempted those, but yeah, I imagine those add to the fun of scoring rather than making it redundant! :)

Yeah, most of them are only to get a detergent before starting a combo or something, not stuff that literally ruins the game.

What about that business with stacking turtles in FC2? I've never had the patience to pull it off, but I wonder if it was even half-intentional on the part of the developers?

I've managed it, but it wasn't really worth many extra points since I could never manage to get a decent combo even with hands.

Yeah, I feel like beating up those gnomes could be perfected even with just feet. Haven't quite managed it, but… :fou:

I've used the turtles on LOTLD1 where you get the shock rocket early, again I'm not sure it's worth much extra, but you get the plum early too.

The plum early? Does that help comboing the Slapdashes?
