My room mate managed to make it to level 87 in Minestorm. At this level, the ship seeds the mines, and then a twirling beast comes out of nowhere,trying to get your ship. My room mate blew this sucker away and the game froze! No new mines mushroomed, but you could move the spaceship around or shoot. Incidently, he had accumulated 14 or 15 extra ships by this time as well. He left the game in this state for approximately 1/2 hour and then attempted to reboot via RESET. After RESET, the game simply restarted at level 1 again. My question is this the "END" of Minestorm? Has anyone else gotten to this level or possibly surpassed it?
