1:34		I too earned everything except "Score Reset". Tried it a second time and rolled the score with 1 life left and it still didn't pop. Anyone know how to get it to trigger?

5:47		Fun set, this was the first game i ever had as a kid in the eighties. A shame that everything can be done in gametype one. Made it a bit on the easy side. And imho 4 pacifist cheevos is a bit much.

0:34		That was a lot of fun. Short and sweet. Thank you.
25 Feb 2020
23:10		Thanks for building this one. It was fun
22 Mar 2020
4:29		Easy way to get the pacifist cheevos - just keep resetting until all the asteroids are moving in the same direction, then just stay away from them.

0:00		Great classic! Very nice achievements, deividokop!
31 May 2020
6:20		mastered - very nice, very quick. a proper set. a ton easier if you never move
25 Sep 2020
10:39		Very fun set. Only complaint is that it seems strange that only game type 1 was used. Otherwise felt perfect. Mastered.
26 Sep 2020
17:53		Score reset still not working, I've tried many times, all without savestates and it doesn't pop up. I'd like to master it.

0:43		One more atari classic mastered.

21:00		I think I found a bug with the 'Single Life' leaderboard. The 'Single Life' leaderboard attempt starts fine, but when loosing my first life I get 'single life leaderboard attempt cancelled.'
16 Apr 2021
21:00		If I keep playing that same round until I loose my last life...the regular Multi-life leaderboard submits fine. Any help is appreciated. Using RA v.1.9.1 ROM hash is matching. Tested with newest 'Stella' & newest 'Stella 2014' cores

19:44		Hello, you need to play the following ROM:https://retroachievements.org/viewtopic.php?t=6190&c=30987#30987
25 Jun 2021
23:37		Mastered. That was a fun little set. Thanks deividokop!
14 Jul 2021
13:06		how do you reset score? I press start but the achiev dont trigger
14 Jul 2021
13:31		Reset Score or Reset Progress?
26 Jul 2021
2:59		It's not the best wording. Resetting your score means having the score roll over. After you get the maximum score, it goes back to 0, thus resetting it.
