Title: Tough level 4 pie factory
Post by: lakeman421 on February 05, 2013, 12:12:58 pm: Never thought about trying to jump the middle oil can or knew it can be done. But went for it and succeeded.

Post by: ChrisP on February 14, 2013, 05:08:57 pm: I practiced this jump in MAME, until ultimately saying "this will never be useful in a real game. There will never be a situation where you need to do this."

So what's most interesting about this video to me is that Robbie found a spot where it did indeed need to be used!

Am I the only one that see a few frames of Galaga on the screen before the clip plays?
