Hello to all!
Now I will admit I am not the best at this game, and probably never will be. However, I have a friend who is probably annoyed at me beating her everytime she challenges me to this game. One day, she told me to have a 'tell-all' session on a message board. So here I am.
Just a few bits of advice:
1) Patience is a virtue! The success to winning in this game is patience. Now i know that there is a time bonus and everything...but just forget about that! If you want the big bonuses, take your time and plan ahead.
2)Tackle a bit at a time. Remember, a small amount of perfection is greater than a great deal of imperfection.
3) Don't rely on your reflexes! The computer has far greater reflexes on you. Find a strategy that works for you, and plan ahead.
4) Split the screen into sectors. For example, put one line through the centre of the screen. That way, the average time for your wall to be built will be reduced by half.
5) Use the vortexes. I know they aren't called that, but you all know what I mean. Sinkeyes, I think that's what they are called. However so, you get huge bonuses when you get the coresponding coloured balls inside the vortex.
6) The beginning of the work is always the most valued. It is far easier to get 100% completed when there are 2 balls than 15. The key to getting 100% is the vortex and being pateint.
7) Power-ups. I usually ignore these, however, if you need assistance, take some. Personally, my favourite is the accelerator.
8) Every bit counts. When you have isolated one or two balls. Shorten the area they are in. Even 1% can get you a few decent points.
9) Don't risk by using one-sided barrier shot. If you have no idea what you mean. Just ignore this part. But if you stuff this up, you can lose a life, and all lives mean something.
10) Don't ignore the bombballs. Bombballs may be hard to use, but they do pay off. If you are out of vortexes, just isloate some coloured balls with a bombball and...BAM!
11) Keep your cool. One of the worst things you can do is lose your temper. Just stay clam and don't panic if you don't think you can make it; stay focused and have faith!
12) Concentrate! As you go along, the lvels get harder, and you have to start concentrating to get exact timing.
13) Put the cursor equal distance from both ends. Now this cursor thing does take a while to master, however in the meantime follow this tip. Put the cursor so both ends of the cursor is equal distance from the barrier it will connect with after it finishes it's wall.
...I am way to tired to continue. However, some thing you should know just before you leave:
1) I am Australian! Hence the spelling 'colour' and 'favourite'.
2) I will edit this soon. When I think of more tips and a way to explain my strategy better.
3) I only play this game to fufil challenges. If you go to my profile and look at my highscore, you will notice it is not high. That is because I purposely stuff up after I pass the challenger's score...So, I gues what I am trying to say, is that, for a while now, I have not completed the game to the amount I could.
Also, if you don't understand something, or want to post your opnion, and maybe even your own tips, then feel free to post them. I am always open minded.
Hope this helps.
I'm off,
Happy Gaming!
