Alternate Lunar Lander Game-Play

Hi All,

Well, after letting it sit in my garage for over a year, I finally got my
Lunar Lander in my arcade.

Now, I know LL is a boring game. I knew that before I got this machine. But
I really like it. I enjoy the calm pace of the game-play and, with limited
fuel (free play mode), landing sucessfully on the harder missions can be a
real challenge.

However, I've come up with an alternative objective for this game for when
I'm feeling a little on edge. My new goal is to see how fast I can be going
when I hit the ground. The idea is to get up as high as you can without
having the level reset, turn upside down and power into the ground. There's
lots of strategey - what part of land are you over, how high do you dare go,
what mission to choose, etc. It's really not that easy to get a really high
speed. My best is about 850!

I know that it's a bit sick. Perhaps all this crashing into the ground is
what's causing my objects to jitter (perhaps their scared!). But, hey, it is
fun. ;)
