Bubbles Level 70

[thefront]

Hi,

I have played bubbles like an addict and now I'm at that point where I can't get any further. I'm talking about level 70. I have played that level for over 3 months now but never got it finished. Today I had only two colors left but never got the right count of balls to clear them from the screen completely. It went on and on until the last line reached the bottom so I lost that game again. Does anyone has the same problem like me not getting level 70 finished?

Hey, funny thing I'm also on level 70.

I finished it yesterday and went all the way to 76, but my battery died, so it didn't save. Today I'm still on level 70.

So yeah, this level is hard, and you've got to rely on luck and dexterity, but it's possible to clear it.

It is possible to get through the entire game (havent actually beaten level 100 yet).

It is quite possible to beat the game, even on an Archos Recorder.  

And if you think 70 is hard, try 99.

I just beat them all the other day.  Is there a way to clear the max level you're on?

Thefront, you don't need to match up exactly 3 of a color.  If you have, say, 2 purples on the screen, just cleared your last reds, and have a red in the cannon and one in reserve, you *know* that your next bubble (after those two) will be purple, because it only chooses  what is on the screen *now*.  So, if you fire your two reds so they are stuck to the purples, and not touching the roof, your third shot, the guaranteed pink, will knock all the bubbles away and you'll pass the level.

Is there a way to clear the max level you're on?

Deleting the file ./rockbox/rocks/bubbles.score will clear the max level (as well as all your high scores). To clear only the max level you'd have to set the first 4 bytes of bubbles.score to '00 00 00 00'.

Beautiful, thanks!

(I don't want to clear the scores, though they are by no means stellar)

[thefront]

thanks Yotto for that tip. I didn't think of that when I came this far in level 70. Just got too excited to finish it that I disconnected my fingers from my brain I Will try it again soon and hope it doesn't take another three months to finish

I wonder if there is a way to put Super Puzzle Fighter II Turbo onto rockbox games I have that game for psx for many years now and I still play it.

FINALLY  

I did it. Level 70 is done and I went all the way up to level 99. And now all what matters is speed, luck and much much practise. Have tried it serveral times but always got busted about one or two minutes after the level starts. I hope that I'll finish that one in a few days/weeks/months, too

And if you think 70 is hard, try 99.

  Goodluck.
