New Achievement, yay!
« on: July 05, 2011, 05:42:12 pm »
Sunburn - turn 21 blocks red with a single paint.

Obviously for the Steam Summer Sale. Maybe not the best reason for a new achievement but hopefully it will attract some new players.

So whats the strategy? Fill the board using Pointman pro and wait for that paint? Ezpz!

I'd guess so.

That sounds like a strat to use imo.

I was wondering what was the download for so I guessed "new update?"  and when i checked "ooh a new achievement".  Gotta be easy to do on Pointman Pro though... just fill everything up and apply red paint.  Meh xD

Either Pointman Pro or Casual make this a pretty easy achievement.

That being said, I haven't actually gotten the achievement to work properly yet...

Got it in less than 2 minutes of a song :P

Pointman Pro is definitely the best for the achievement.

Easy one to get, although it does rely on luck, so I unfortunately ran through a 5 minute track without a single red paint the first time round. Hehe. Got it now though.

Weak. How about "paint 28 blocks one color with a single paint?" Real men know that two ships are better than one.

:D

Well that's a bummer achievement, seeing as I never really touched pro (Went from mono straight to ninja mono and on to eraser elite, then pusher elite).

Guess I'll be hunting this one instead of accidently getting it, the latter being the most fun to get an achievement.
I am enough idiot to block also this topic, and if aomtt has also enough idiot to continue toss old statements have been said and new statements no basis then block those yes.

Bullshit.

:D

On topic:
Guess I'll have to play some Pointman Pro.
Might as well get the rest of the missing achievements. Never got around to getting Stealth Legend and Bizarro. :D

Pointman Pro is good for this achievement. But I also believe that Vegas is good for this achievement because it can hold onto the paint like Pointman Pro can.

I was able to get the Sunburn achievement using Vegas. Vegas generated a red paint as its first powerup of the song. I got match 21 red with a good chain. I scored over 21K with the red paint. It surprisingly took two playthroughs to wait for Vegas to generate red paint.

With Pointman, hanging on to a red paint and a multiplier until the chain is nice and long, you can get over 100K with a single match if you do it right.
