@hobs had a great idea (sorry it’s taken me so long to get around to it!): what if we do a caravan event? We all settle on a specific game and do like a score attack on it and post our results?
It’d just be a friendly event, a community thing where we can encourage each others’ progress and celebrate our achievements.
If people are interested, we could even do a game of the month sort of thing, like some other comms do. Interested in your thoughts either way!
Either option sounds great to me - I’m playing through my backlog of shmups (and shmup adjacent games) this year and would love to share some scores, 1CCs or just have a common goal, so to speak.
