Shatter Questions and Suggestions

[T3CK]

I have few questions about the game.

What are different bonuses you can get for finishing levels ?
I saw one for 10000 when you dont loose a ball.
Also one that said its for not touching walls what does that mean it was 10000 points also but i dont know how i did it.
Is there penalty for hitting blocks with your ship when you are in shield.
When you use multi-ball do you get more combo points ?
What is the time bonus for levels ?
Is it better to finish off levels quick in fiew hits or to take your time and to pick up all the things slowly.
How come when i was done with playing maybe 5 levels other levels unlocked by them self even doe i haven't even played those levels.
Do the little balls expire or disappear after certain time or i can just suck them in at the very end of the level if i want ?
Suggestions

The leaderboards take a long time to load up.
Leaderboards seam to glich up i was 900 something the other day and later on when i checked it changed in to 400s
I wish there was TIME leaderboards for each level and finishing the game.
Bonuses for bosses maybe 1up or something like that.
Costume soundtrack
2 player co-op or VS

Thanks for the great game looking forward to more lvls coming in DLC

hi,
your topic's greatly named.

There's "Boss rush mode" and "bonus mode" to unlock (by finishing the game and the first world respectivily)
About scoring, the multiplier increase as you suck shatter fragment.
Leaderboards always take a long time to load (it's not longer than in Mirror's Edge, or Resident Evil 5, or Street fighter VI, or Blazblue, or any other game wich I checked the online ranking from)

I just past here cause Shatter is a pretty good game and to know (maybe) if dlc could come out (eventually hopefully)

First of all, absolutely fantasic game! I love updated retro and Shatter's really stolen my heart (and my time).

Any suggestions and wishes I'd have for it don't detract from what's a stellar entry into the PS3 downloadable games, well done, Sidhe!

I find myself interested in the story element, or what there is of it. What's the protagonist's name? Bat? Paddle? An acronym would probably work best. He's a small cog fighting the big machine, granted his freedom by a cosmic accident . . or by design?


Suggestions/Wishlist:

1. Yes, DLC! Expansions, or even a Stellar 2 (after lots of DLC, please!)
2. Story elements make the game even better
3. More varied powerups - increase bat size, increase bat speed, slowdown/speedup ball, magnetic bat (hold ball), exploding ball, insane ball (unpredictable physics), "Shatterball" (temporary force field over groundplane & ball speed goes insane, super ricochets), Ion Wind (blows objects towards one side or another), Electro ball (causes unpredictable electric surge when striking an object, randomly hitting/destroying nearby objects), Ether Cyclone (next object struck becomes the center of a cyclone that whips objects about in a circular fashion). . . just brainstorming

erg...its shatter not stellar...btw great ideas everyone i REALLY LOVE THIS GAME AND I NEED DLC FOR IT REALLY I NEED MOOOOOREEEEEEEEEEE LEVELS!!!!!AND AN 2 VS MODE

My only problem with Shatter is that I want MORE of it. One of the most fun games I've played tbh, I really hope the game does well enough for Sidhe to consider giving the game some additional love in the way of DLC and a PSP version.

Contributing some info to the thread:

- You lose 1x multiplier when a block crosses your line
- You lose 1x multiplier when a ball hits your bat
- There is not a multiplier penalty when a block hits your shielded bat
- The "little balls" (energy) do not disappear, however there can only be a certain amount of them in the level at once.
- If you do not suck them in by the time your bat leaves the level, you do not collect them

Things I'd like to see:

- An extra "panel" (Story mode, Boss Rush, etc) which details the bonuses in the game, such as not losing a ball. They could be hidden until you discover them or simply listed.
- A description of the different blocks. I've figure out what they do, but it might be helpful for some
- Custom music playback. I love the Shatter playlist, but I have some neat electronic beats too ;)

Great game. im having some good fun with it.

But...

i really want a DLC for the game with multiplayer action in it. have a competitive 2 vs mode or coop would really make the game a lot more fun. this is my opinion on things, but i do know that people want this game to have multiplayer online capability with this amazing game. i believe this would make the game even better.

It's nice to see that's lots of people loved this game and wants more.

A DLC that allow user created content would be terrific (awesome, super ...)

It should be done in a few hours...I hope lol

Here is the link for my topic on GameFaqs:
http://www.gamefaqs.com/boards/genmessage.php?board=960205&topic=50715528

I didn't write an actual "FAQ" at it takes too long to approve and this isn't really long enough for a FAQ. I also hate all the legal stuff you have to write on a FAQ, lol.
