Introduction.

There is no copyright on this guide but if you do re-post elsewhere please credit me. =D

 

Special thanks to bitforge for creating this game, Xbox360Achievements for hosting this guide.

 

Pretty simple game, most achievements unlock without having to think too hard about them but I've listed the achievements in order that I unlocked them listing how I did them.

 

Aim of the game.

 

You shoot Orbs from a turret, you must hit the Orbs in the playing field a number of times to destroy them.

 

Orbs have hit points which are indicated by a number.

 

The size of the Orbs when they stop in the playing field depends on how close they are to edge of the screen and other orbs.

 

If your Orb stops in the middle of the screen or far away from other Orbs it will be large, if it stops on the edge of the screen or close to other Orbs it will be small.

 

Game Modes in single player and Local Multiplayer.

 

Supernova

 

You have full control of laser guided turret.

Orbs take 5 hits to destroy.

When an Orb is destroyed it blows up damaging nearby Orbs.

Score is based on destroying Orbs, the more Orbs you destroy from 1 shot gives a multiplier.

 

Gravity

 

The turret moves left to right.

Orbs take 3 hits to destroy.

Orbs in play have a gravity effect.

Score is based on destroying Orbs. 1 Orb = 1 point.

 

Pure

 

The turret moves left to right.

Orbs take 3 hits to destroy.

Score is based on destroying Orbs. 1 Orb = 1 point.

 

Game review

 

Nice simple little game, beautiful graphics and nice techno soundtrack, not a must buy but certainly worth £2.29 = $2.99. I rate the game 9/10.

http://tiles.xbox.com/tiles/V3/ZK/0ICLiGJhbC9MFQRrXVBQHEE1L2FjaC8wLzgAAAAA5+fn-2V2TA==.jpg Near Death Experience 5:gsicon:

Received "That was close" in one game

"That was close" is when a fired Orb stops close to the death line at the bottom of the screen above your turret.

You will probably get this with bad shot during play or see set-up for Survivor.

http://tiles.xbox.com/tiles/Wu/m+/1YCLiGJhbC9FCxt0GltSUkE1L2FjaC8wLzExAAAAAOfn5-qR6UY=.jpg Survivor 10:gsicon:

Receive "That was close" three times in one game

"That was close" is when a fired Orb stops close to the death line at the bottom of the screen above your turret.

Get 3 "that was close" in one game to unlock.

TIP ~ Playing supernova game mode is an easy way to unlock.

Step 1 - Aim your laser into the top left hand corner and move it slightly right about 1/3rd of the way of your gamer picture and fire.

Step 2 - Now aim your laser directly underneath the Orb you just fired and fire again, if done correctly this will give you your 1st "that was close".

Do the same (Mirror step 1 & 2) on the right hand side for your second "that was close".

The third "that was close" is a little more tricky, you can fire another Orb off your 4 hit point Orbs but if that is not working you need to clear some space and set-up step 1 and 2 again.

This will take a lot of replays but once you get the feel for getting the Orb for step 1 in the correct position you should not have any problems.

just registered to say thanks to YIP YOO for the Survivor guide. I'm switching to an android phone from WP7 soon and wanted to finish getting the last few achievements needed.

 

Guide was simple and I got it on my second attempt, even gaining a fourth 'that was close' in the process.

 

Cheers
