    I'm on level 10 so I guess I'm above average.

    Since I love TA, here's how the update is going down:

    - 3 New Difficulty Levels
    - Current Difficulty will be the hardest tier
    - These will be accessible as level packs
    - No current progress will be lost

    :D

    Those buggers will creep up on you something fierce.

    hate level 10, i know its possible but its so stupidly unforgiving. I've gotten to one last bar a few times, and two last bars probably a dozen times, but it just messes with you by popping up a planet under your finger where you can't even see it until its too late. Too many of those floating untouchable red orbs. Too small a screen for it to be this hard. Its possible, cause I've gotten so close, but its so incredibly frustrating. Great game, but I think the level design could be changed so its a little easier, or at least put level 10 closer to the end of the game, unless the levels after it are that much harder. I had a tough time with some of the levels before 10, but none really compare to its difficulty in my mind.

    And how good would this game be on one of those giant touch screen coffee tables that illusionlabs showed off. Would make it totally more enjoyable having a bigger screen and using all 10 fingers to control planets. It could be as difficult but not for the reasons like the size of the screen being so small. Plus, it would be awesome playing it with friends helping out.

    just managed to pass level 10. i think this is the point where i'm going to end up not playing eliss for a long time at least, if not ever again, or until the update is released. don't know what they were thinking when they made level 11, i don't have 30 freaking fingers.

    I am finding the game very enjoyable, the graphics work well and the gameplay is like nothing else. There is a steep learning curve but there is something addicting to make you wanna go back and play more. Nobody likes and easy game, but after a few tries at levels that, at first i thought were impossible i managed to complete them with ease. There are quite a lot of tactics and techniques that you learn and use and that helps. Overall a great experience even if a little steep at 2.39.

    ive been stuck on level 10 for quite some time so its safe to say i dont play the game anymore. im all about difficult games but when you play a level 100 times and still cant get past, its just not fun anymore. they need to make the penalty for planets colliding much less than it is. this game feels like frenzic to me, getting cheap shots left and right. its less about skill at this point and more about luck, hoping a planet doest blind side you and pop up under your finger. brutal. this game made me it's bitch. i hate it now. :mad:

    Been on level 13 for some time - every once and a while I take a crack at it, but more often than not I start games just a few levels in so I can play longer. :p
