This is a hard trophy that will require a lot of knowledge about the game and how to score big within each level. Basically to get to 300,000 (which is quite high), build up your Zorlon Cannon (the rectangle on the left side of the screen) and shoot it at the spiral right when it charges across the screen each and every time. Page 6 of the game's manual tells you how much you earn for each activity in the game as well as some helpful hints to help you out.
Here's how the points work:
There are also 3 High score features to take note of as well:
Finally, here are some tips to help you out:
Alternatively, you can use the PS4 save exploit to easily make your way up to 300,000 by correcting your mistakes within your playthorugh. For those who don't know how to do the exploit, here's how it works:
- Cells hit by missile or eaten - 69 points with 100 in bonus points
- Qotile destroyed - 1,000 points
- Swirl destroyed in place - 2,000 points
- Swirl destroyed in midair - 6,000 points and an extra life
- At 70,000 points, the swirl triples in frequency and will sometimes fire instantly. The shield will turn blue.
- At 150,000 points, the swirl returns to normal frequency, but it will remain in midair to try and kill you. The shield will turn grey.
- At 230,000 points, the swirl triples in frequency and will sometimes fire instantly. Same as at 70,000 points except that the shield will turn pink.
- Try playing the game on "Ultimate Yars". Even though this game mode can be difficult, this mode will allow you to stockpile your Zorlon Cannon shots and only summon them when you need them. Also, the swirl will be launching faster and sooner than usual, which makes easy points once you get the timing of your shots down.
- When playing on "Ultimate Yars", make sure that the Destroyer Missile destruction is turned OFF because this will allow your shots to flow uninterrupted.
- The overall timing of the swirl launching will always be random, but the spawns have a color pattern. What this means is the Qotile (the main enemy on the right with a shield) cycles through different colors within the same order and pace every time. Whenever it turns brown for example, it will become a swirl. Later on in the triple score ranges, these swirl colors will be changing on blue and light green. Once you learn these cycles involving brown, blue and light green, you'll know when to prepare to fire the cannon.
- If the "Ultimate Yars" game mode does not suit you, try getting this trophy in game 0 (children's version). This game mode makes the game easy to play, but it will eventually get harder later on.
- Whenever you shoot down the Qotile and enter the next level, pause the game and quit to the main menu. You will then see a blue game disc in the top left corner, meaning the game is saved.
- Once the game saves, close the application and press "Options " on it and click on the option of "Upload/Download". This is where the exploit comes into play.
- Once you're there, you will see the upload save data on the left and the download save data on the right. For every new level, you will want to upload the saved data and check off "apply to all" before saying yes. You must have a PS PLUS Subscription to use this feature!!
- Once you upload the data, enter the game and pick up where you left off.
- If you die or mess up in any way, DO NOT back out to the main menu. Instead, close the application without saving and return to "Upload/Download". Then you will need to download your saved data and check off apply all before saying yes. Once that's done, enter the game and try again.
