Boomerang / ブーメラン (MSX)
(C) 1984 ASCII Corporation
By Hiroshi Nishikawa
- -
Notes:
- Boomerang was originally released for the NEC PC-8001 computer in 1983. It was one of the 5 grand prix winners of the first ASCII Software Contest, which got a physical release by ASCII Corporation (other games being Bokosuka Wars, War Game Construction Kit, UTAN Jr., and Stone Panic).
- The PC-8001 version of Boomerang has 28 stages, while the MSX version only has 14. They are mostly different, but share some similarities.
- The game loops the 14 stages over and over again, each loop being faster than the last one.
- Every stage will increase the amount of points received from defeated enemies by 10 points, starting with 10 points per kill in stage 1. This behavior continues even after completing a loop (in other words, no reset), eventually making you gain a crazy amount of score from kills.
- The max score is 99990. Once reached, or rather exceeded, the score counter will reset back to 0. This can be first done on the 5th loop (or the 4th loop, if you purposely keep sacrificing lives for farming score). My personal record is maxing out the score 4 times (1st time on the 5th loop, 2nd time on the 7th loop, 3rd time on the 8th loop, 4th time on the 9th loop).
- Every time when you complete a stage, you gain an extra life.
- Many of the stages can always be done consistently (at least on the first few loops), while some are a bit more random with enemy projectiles. For this reason its a good thing that the game gives you an extra life every time when you complete a stage.
- Learn how many enemy projectiles can be on the screen at the same time for each stage, as this behavior is consistent. For instance, in stages 6, 9, and 13 only one projectile can exist at a time, making timing your movements easier.
- While waiting too long in a stage is usually bad for you, since enemies will start to move too fast and shoot constantly, its actually super-useful for stage 12.
- You change the throwing direction of your boomerang by moving around (doesnt work if moving against walls). Note that this only works when youre carrying the boomerang, meaning that whenever you pick up the boomerang again, you need to take another step to update the direction.
- You cant throw the boomerang if an enemy is right in front of you.
- You can block enemy projectiles with the boomerang.
- Enemy projectiles only kill you if they hit directly into you. For instance, when a projectile is moving up, you can safely try to walk into them from the sides (left or right). The projectile will behave as if it were a wall.")
