I think it's great to have the developer's high score list to give me something to aspire to, but I think it would have been nice to have a local high score list so I could track my progress. In fact, I decided that I preferred the latter to the former and threw away the score file. If you're some kind of hippie who's into karma and shit, I'll give you the satisfaction of knowing that I haven't gotten anywhere near my personal best since doing so. If only I had some record of what exactly that score was, you could nod sagely, knowing precisely the degree to which the mighty had fallen.
As is normally the case, it's not that these authors rip off the golden age of arcade games, it's that they don't rip them off enough. Tempest keeps the three highest score in memory and the other seven until the machine is turned off. It would have been nice to see Grid Wars 2 keep the top 3 scores of the author and then let you hobble about with the other, pathetic, seven.
On the other hand, when I finally do break into that score table it will be a wonderful and rewarding feeling.
(I do like that nobody had any problem whatsoever finding the archive. Good game, Stuart. Good game.)
