I think i might have a highscore on an arena mode, but i will confirm later when I play today (first time in a while, lol)

Just printed off the scores so I can check against my own -- not sure how well I'll compete, though...but I do have a few scores I am pretty proud of.

My ID is Kungfupandaa. Feel free to add me!

Thats the last of the scores I'll be posting until some are beaten. I doubt I'll ever be able to beat Eggers score on Sand-Pit-Fall solo, can't even get close. As for Sheep Mage Rage..... Eh, don't have the patience.

I'd try to compete on the time side with you, but its too luck based imo. I'd just get angry and tempted to smash things from the potential redundancy of it

Arenas are my thing.

As for Bonus Missions, I vote C.
I've tried the exploit on Chompy Challenge, but can't beat my flat out best nightmare score. It seems in a way, the exploit can be beaten.

I'd like to join in and submit a couple of scores for:

Cascade Glade - 533225

Mudwater Hollow - 2126245

I got 2724218 on twisty tunnels
I have photographic evidence but i dont know how to send the photo via iPad

EDIT: Score Mode

Kiroq (PS4)
Iron Jaw Gulch - Time Attack - 1:35.50
Frostfest Mountains - Time Attack - 1:52.46

Was bored, leveling some of my excess landers, when I decimated a current score. Also, this level seems to have no maximum score, as you can abuse Vortex Geargolem spawning Cyclopses endlessly (or so it seems, there may be a limit to their spawns like on arenas).

Sheep Wreck Island: 3,089,408

I found a glitch to get an indefinitely high score on Cascade Glade/Score Attack. I actually discovered this a long time ago (and haven't messed with it since), though held off posting it because it might discourage people from trying to get a good score there.
It probably still will, but hardly anyone is posting scores now anyway, and I want to see someone clock the max score. I don't know if anyone else does, but I don't have the patience to do this over and over, so at least someone else can try to.

I found this on the XBox 360 PAL version, don't know if it's possible on other copies.

It's actually really simple. Just go to the last Spark Plug and exit it. Every time you do this you get about 200 points, so you can keep entering and exiting it to continue getting points. I don't know if this glitch stops working after a certain point, but I tried it a few times in a couple of runthroughs, and it gave me points every time.

I'll be trying this on the NSTC Wii-U version after I do a segment of my Nuzlocke for today. If it works, I'll likely run the score to max just to see how high it can go. However, the score grinding method I found in sheep wreck (vortex golems can "seemingly" spawn endless enemies) would probably be much less excruciating to hit the max score.

Well I looked into the glitch you detailed Arc, and..... Its a game breaking glitch in regards to score mode. ANY spark lock can be backed out of to gain a 3x multiplier until you reach 30x. Upon having a 30x multiplier, backing out will net you 300 points, seemingly forever. Again, tested in the NSTC WiiU version.

I didn't reach the max, but for good reason. I made sure to atleast reach/break 10mil using the Golem method in Sheep Wreak, because of this, I suspect the max score to be 99,999,999 or , 999,999,999, or possibly beyond reason what so ever. 99mill is already insane enough, considering reaching it through normal means is absolutely impossible.

As for the Spark Lock method, I did further investigation, as compared to the Infinite Vortex Golem Spawns as it regards to reaching and discovering the max score. Per second, the Golem method generates roughly 975 points per second. The spark Lock method generates roughly 90 points per second. This does however speak well for the means of using it for game breaking the score mode, because at one time, its amazing for boosting your multiplier real quick, however, at 90 points per second, the time it would take to get a significant score (i.e. my 11m), it would take an equally significant amount of time. Using the math I did for this, it took me about 3.1 hours in theory to get 11m, and this is fairly accurate. Using the same math, it would seem that reaching 99,999,999 would take 28.5 hours of continuous grinding on vortex golem spawns. Unless someone is truly dedicated, we may never see the max score. I could maybe take on Crazy Bus in terms of monotony, but not this lol.


Edit
Score Mode:
Mudwater Hollow: 1,069,311

Fantasm Forest 1,614,565
Kaos' Fortress: 967,108
Motherly Mayhem: 304,503


I feel it isn't a necessity to mark my Sheep Wreak Score, as it would just take someone 3+ hours of monotonous grinding in one spot to beat it.

Not sure if others know this, but there are several levels where you can play mini games and fail and retry to increase the score--is that the case on this level or was this using AoA's Spark Lock glitch?

No, the Sparklock method generates roughly 90 points per second which is such a low rate that its insufferable. To put it in perspective, it would take 34.4 hours (roughly) to get that same exact score via the Sparklock method, while the VGS method only took about 3 hours. Vortex Golems will spawn ranged cyclopes about every 10 second, and do will continue to do so every 10 seconds indefinitely. This behavior is exclusive to Sheep Wreak Island, as the Arena Vortex Golems have a spawn limit (I never cared to find out exactly how many they can spawn, but I do know its limited from experience).

Regarding the math above, the Sparklock method takes so much time that using it for anything other than boosting your multiplier to 30x early in a level is rather pointless because a simple 500k points extra would take 1.5 hours of pressing the same 2 buttons, but doing nothing to break any monotony of it (the spawn method at least allows for game play to pass the time).

As for the mini-games, I recently discovered that myself while I was playing Frostfest Mountains and entering the magic elemental gate. The balloon shooting mini game gives 300 points a balloon and mine, and can be done indefinitely so long as you hit a mine before popping 50 balloons.


EDIT: On a side note, if anyones interested, we may never actually SEE the max score, like, at all. I've broken 11m, meaning that the bare minimum max is likely 99m, but I also suspect the programmers may have set it to 999m, regardless of the fact it is absolutely unreachable. To further enunciate the point of "we may never see the max score", using the Vortex Golem Spawn method of score grinding and the same formulas I used to get how many points it gives per second, I worked out the rough amount of time it would take to reach 99m and 999m.

99,999,999: 1 Day, 4 hours, 30 minutes.
999,999,999 eheh....... 11 DAYS, 22 hours

If 99m is the max, its only a matter of the right person taking on the challenge to show the max score to us all..... If the max is 999m.... We will never see it, period. To my knowledge, most consoles these days CANNOT run nearly 12 straight days without frying itself into oblivion (I could be entirely wrong on this, but more modern consoles seem more more and more prone to death by overheating).

Well, sorry to derail from the current topic, but this will be my third to last post. I have been trying to three star all different modes, from the Swap Zones, to the Score Mode challenges. If you ever want to see my friend code, just go to the Wii U Friends or something or other thread. I wish you all a very good bye, and see to it that you beat my scores!

I might have a go later to have a try at beating some of these

Has anybody thought of adding the 3DS Version's Levels? I've been doing time trials in those o3o
