Xenon - Hiscore Competition

Welcome to the next classicamiga hiscore competition.

This time we are playing the classic Bitmap Brothers game, Xenon.

Quite a traditional vertical scrolling shooter that turned out to be quite revolutionary at the time thanks to it's dual move of play, being able to both fly around the screen and convert your ship into a ground vehicle by wiggling the mouse quickly or hitting space. It was also one of the first game to contain digitised video.


The competition is as always, get the hiscore and take a screenshot of the hiscore table with your username entered for that score. Then upload your screenshot to the members arcade on the main site and then link to the image in this thread to prove your score.

Good luck everyone. I hope you all have fun playing this great game. After this we will then move on to the sequel Xenon 2 for the next competition.

I tested the game, long time ago I've played it. It's a bit tough, cannot get past the first boss.

There's no hi-score list in the game (or is there?), so you must be quick to take a snapshot. Is this the best way to post the pics?



So the score is 15.950

Finally got into the loft to find my copy of this.
That's corrupted as well.
Can't install it.
It will play from the floppy though, so could have been worse.

So you can finally have a go at the hiscore?

I'm surprised no one has submitted any hiscores yet. I thought this one would have been more popular. I will see what score I can do myself this coming week.

Yes, in the machine and all set to go.
Must admit, thought there would have been a lot more entries for this one.
