Alright. I'm going to give this a go. It may fall flat and I just wasted 30 min but oh well. I put together a Google Doc that anyone can add to so we can all kind of see what's possible in clone saving. It will also provide some bragging rights if we can get enough participants. i.e. Which levels is Matt33 not going to be leading. Haha So here's the link: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AkuYdJFejR0jdE52blhqUU44VXBCSF95TVpWZHRiYWc&usp=sharing PLEASE READ Anyone with the link can edit this. So basically you could really eff it up, so please only add your data. Don't mess with other columns. All you need to do to enter data is go to "SHEET2", enter your GameCenter ID or some way of identifying yourself so you can come back and update your column, then enter your number of clones saved. "SHEET1" has the averages and maximums. Obviously since only my data is in there right now (embarrassingly enough, but hey most levels I've only done once) the average and max are the same. If anyone has the additional level names for DAY II - DUSK feel free to add them to SHEET1 as I haven't completed DAY II yet. Sheet2 will automatically update. If this catches on I'll make the sheets more ascetically pleasing, but not going to sink time into that yet. Enjoy!
Thanks. The other top competitors have done incredibly well, too. I think this is the closest it's been. The wording of this could actually be enough of a hint without looking in the spoiler boxes: Regarding the mystery of the unknown achievement, it's funny you say "not the button one," because it's actually hidden in the level Spoiler 'Buttons.' So there's an achievement in both Spoiler 'Buttons' and 'Unbutton.' Well done! Assuming you would have already updated your spreadsheet if you've played more Dusk levels, that means the achievement is in one of the first 4 levels. That should narrow it down a bit.
Well I played a couple levels and haven't updated the sheet but I'm not going to say your wrong. Nice detective work by the way!
Heh, thank you. I just got the achievement I'm curious what kind of stats other players have. The amount of time I've spent on this game is...significant. I'm 43 minutes away from clocking in 100 hours spent flying, and have tapped the screen 6,952,025 times. Oh my God. Is there any way to determine which levels you've survived in 1 try? I'm at 64/70 but don't know which 6 I haven't.
Got it too! The Spoiler Antistop achievement, that's all I'm going to say. I had the feeling it would be it when I just replayed that level... And sure it was! Thanks Zach / Matt33 for the hint and great detective work indeed (SherlockMatt!) So Spoiler Unbutton it is for the last one (thanks Matt33, duh, I should have figured!) Well, lol, here is where I stand: I poisoned 60,004 clones! I left 79,170 behind and lost 181,000+ in total... Poor clones. I survived 63 level out of 70 in one try (oooooh, one less than you Matt33), but, like you, don't know in which 7 I haven't. I touched the screen 7,106,774 times (!!!) and have flown 82H22m06s! I guess I'm "no-lifing" this game as they say.
Great job on the spreadsheet Zach, I like it! So we can have this a bit as a 'scoreboard' and to have a solid idea of what's doable and where - which was always my goal, without being given direct solutions by the masters (I wish BADLAND, via Game Center, would support a per-level comparison with other players, that would be neat). I'll enter my 'clone saved' in column two. Thanks again!
Hey thanks for adding. Seems like no one wants to give away their secrets. I went through the first 10 levels of Day I and only got you beat on one. Some of them I'm very impressed with how many you saved!
Secret Achievements Can someone please tell me where all of the secret Achievements are? PM me or reply with hidden answers . Thanks
Yes, everyone is pretty secretive when it comes to sharing their clone counts. Ogster might eventually post some on the spreadsheet - or maybe not - we'll see. 20 on UNSTABLE is real good Zach, nice one! I have to now catch-up, lol Thanks for being "impressed," though let me tell you it's nothing to brag about and you are soon going to get "depressed." What would be truly impressive - and mind-blowing - would be to actually see some of the clone counts for Matt33 and ogster! Soon, you'll have a round of level improvement and will start to make real good progress and will think you are about to reach your "limits." Then you'll start scratching your head and wonder how in the hell can those guys break the 2,000 mark for total clone saved. There is no glitch, no dirty tricks (though somewhat some "tricks") and it's all very possible... Yet sometimes very, very difficult (and this is where I'm about to be right now, replaying hardcore to hopefully make it from 19 to the top 10 on the Leaderboard; I'm still 436 clones behind what's possible - as I said, a bit depressing).
Nice with the spreadsheet. Added my clones. Not much to brag about but I'm ahead with a few of the levels at least. My current problem: I'm so fed up with Spoiler Flaw ! Looking forward to your support. Not technical but emotional support. To inspire me to keep hitting my head against that wall
Thanks for adding Blod! I've updated the sheet with "level leaders" which I've denoted with a grey cell. There's not alot data yet so alot of the same and alot of grandmort leading everything. We've got him beat in a few though! (I've yet to start my Day II saving...) Hopefully this will help us see how we can improve at a quick glance. I'll update the leaders as often as I can to stay on top of it. Again, here's the link for those who don't want to go back searching for it: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AkuYdJFejR0jdE52blhqUU44VXBCSF95TVpWZHRiYWc&usp=sharing I was so close to coming on here and ranting yesterday about the "hit nothing" mission on SQUARED. I was starting to wonder if it was possible to on an iPhone. Ha. But I eventually got it, so stick with it. I twice got hung up on the very last stick of flaw. Talk about frustrating. P.S. Cracked the top 100 of Day I saving with 20 levels I still need to go back though. P.P.S. Officially on the leader board. #75!!!
Welcome aboard Blodpudding! You "forced" me to reclaim a few on the spreadsheet - so I did, lol! I gave up on Spoiler FLAW for the achievement for the time being, that's the only one I'm missing, but yes, if that's what you mean, it makes you want to hit your head against a wall. If you are just looking for high clone count, well, yes, that's frustrating too. Thanks Zach, grey cells and all, that's just great! Congrats! Now the real fun begins! (I passed the top 20 to 17 down to 14 in the past 24 hours, woo woo!)
kudos and much respect to matt33! you're the baddest in badland! i'll take second best for now (if noone catches up) but still eager to save more clones. i needed to put the game aside even for just awhile. after seeing your crazy score, i guess it's time to take a break. hey grandmort. i think two of the top 10 guys reached 2000 clones even before day 2 dusk came out. they might be beta testers or they just posted bogus scores. if they're bogus, i guess you can consider yourself in the top 10.
Thanks ogster, much appreciated. After all the improvements we've made, what's your total flying time? I'm up to 114 hours now
Yes, all Hail the Matt33, the King of Clones! Ummm... Interesting, do you remember which two guys those are? Not Kubrick or KULLUA, right? If I want in the top 5 I'm going to have to beat 2,029 clones, while I'd love to pass 2,000, this is going to be really hard.
