Awesomely Powerful Super Stardust HD Thread

Do you get more points on increased difficulty levels? I've just been playing it on normal.
 
Not that I could see... Possibly, but I'm concentrating so hard I don't pay attention to any of the points other than the bonus. I noticed the number the multilayer is multiplied with increases after time, but that dropped back to 2000 without me knowing why (4x * 2000 for example. I had 6x 3800 at one stage) ...

The only differences that I definitely know of some enemies appear to have more resistance to some types of weapons and all the rocks move around faster - particularly on Elite.
 
Yea, I use my bombs often, i dont use the boost very much though. I think that i just suck at it.
Boost is a very quick way to break up big rocks. On Lave I hit the very first rock longitudinally with a boost before I fire a single bullet (or whatever it is). I come out on the other side with at least one or two weapon upgrades. On a few lucky occasions I wind up with an extra ship or shields.

Pretty much any time a large rock falls down I boost through it and fire back as I pass through.


Plus, you just get better with time. My first few tries I coudln't break a million, and then it took me a while to learn what works best for me before I broke 3 million. Once I got past that barrier though I seem to do well for a bit. For some reason, if I break 3 million then I definitely make it up to about 8-9 million.
 
Haha, I just had to record myself. First video starts at 195,000,000, and is the best one, as I don't die that many times... But I'll link them all anyway. :P


Part 1:



Part 2. Battery ran out without me knowing just under 1/4 the way through - you miss 10,000,000:




Edit: Removed middle two because better video's being uploaded.
 
had the game for 4 days now and my high score is a measly 21,444,573... but i know i'll be able to break that with some more practice!!!
 
Anyone here have any tips for Endless mode?

It's so bloody crazy after about 4-5 nukes that I have no idea how people go further. The red triangle things that come in mass towards you is what usually catches me out, and then the random metor showers... The bombs sometimes can't even keep up, so how on earth is it possible!

The gold melter usually makes short work of the red triangles.

Meteor showers are difficult. Usually a boost with a bomb right as I stop buys me a bit of time. Possibly one more bomb gets me to a boost recharge. Hopefully by that point I am out of it.
 
Highscore from several months ago: 267,000,000.

Here's a video for the Late Boomer trophy.



Dunno why the video is so gittery... The original is fine. :odd:

Edit: There's something wrong with the conversion so I'll add another version soon...

Edit: Here you go!
