Crossing over that 419K line
It took some time, and I had to dig deep to reconnect with my Pac-mania, but I’m getting there. I’ve started to unofficially open Saturday afternoon and I’m usually joined by Mattia and Zeno—the studio’s number 1 fans. They got bit by the Tetris bug after the tournament, so we setup the 27″ Trinitron with some OG Tetris on the NES.
I also convinced Mattia to play a game of Pac-man 2P which I always prefer. He joked it would be like a half hour between lives for him to wait, and that wasn’t entirely false 🙂 We played and I finally broke through my 419,000 point bottleneck which lasted more than 18 months.
I’ve been chasing the half million for a long while, and I finally got close. Mattia caught me crossing the 419K mark at 423,000 and the game ended with me hitting 460K. I love it when I get in a groove.
It’s J-I-M all the way down, and I’m getting the feeling this might be my month.
