Well I gave the Nonstop mode a try last night and it's pretty fun. I got 226183 points (98 targets) on my 1st try I'll give it another go later tonight.

Ooh, maybe Nick will get some competition after all. What phase did you get up to? Glad you liked Nonstop!

I got 339259 (153 targets) on my 2nd try. Not sure what phase the game ended at, it gets hectic when the warning goes off and I forget to look at the phase # before the name entry (and the phase # is not shown in the hi-scores). I'll have to remember to look next time

AENIGMA: Its all about points, don't worry about the Phases so much. Besides, you can make the Phases go backwards when you get a Rainbonus, thats how you can make the game go forever. You can't Rainbonus until Phase 4 when the white targes start showing up. Targets score more points when you are in higher phases, but its harder to survive too. It goes up to Phase "Skull" after 9, which is basically designed to kill you. But its never too late to go back!

Rainbonuses are gotten by getting all three of the bonus conditions at once, btw.

It seems to have a lot of content for only 500 points. I will probably give it a go since everyone is so positive.

Metal Slime: I did get a Rainbonus during a game and remember seeing a skull on the right side of the screen. So I guess I got past phase 9. Thanks for the scoring tips.

when is it coming to EU?

Is the first level on Expert difficulty even possible to beat? Consider:
-There are 6 targets, two of which have to be hit by two different colors, so you have to hit a total of 8 targets with your 3 pieces
-It's impossible to hit 4 targets correctly with any one piece, so you have to hit 3 targets each with two of the pieces and 2 targets with the other. (EDIT - actually it is possible to hit four targets at the same time by putting the rotating red target on the bottom, but this doesn't lead to a solution either.)
-The only target that can be hit simultaneously by the same piece as the leftmost target on the rotating thing is the aqua target in the middle..
The set of possible solutions is severely limited by these three facts, and without going into detail, it's pretty easy to check that none of the remaining possibilities will work. So unless there's like one pixel on the board which lets you hit 4 targets with the same piece or lets you hit another target besides the aqua one at the same time as the leftmost rotating target, I'm pretty sure the level has no solution.

Nevermind about that, I just got it! Turns out there was a way to hit the purple target at the same time as the far left rotating target after all.

EDIT - Yeah the expert levels are REALLY hard Or at least the first three were. The 4th and 5th levels were pretty simple in comparison.

Darn it, that was the one that I'm stuck on. It's crazy hard, for sure. Nice job figuring it out, though! I also breezed through the 5th level, only to find myself completely flummoxed by the first one. HYPNOK!

Woo Hoo! I just finished all of the Solve puzzles, can I get a "High Five!" (You'll know what that means if you solve them all)

AENIGMA, I think you're the FIRST! Huge 80's high-five for you!

Congrats AENIGMA! I have 10 puzzles left to solve. I had to skip over the puzzle "Fly Central" for now, it seems impossible to me.

Got all the puzzles done now! Oh yeah!

Congratulations, accc! Now it's time for you to devise some nasty ones to send around and post a mega Nonstop score!

Contrats accc! [gives accc a high five]

just glanced at the US top 20 and noticed Liight was there for the first time at #17. Knocked out Bit.Trip Flux off list...way to go guys!

When I bought the game late last night, it was at number 20 in Canada.

AWESOME! Hope it keeps moving up!!!

Dang, I'm stuck on Rockwall in expert. Any "experts" out there wanna offer up any advice?
