Thinking about keeping a record for the highest scores and stuff.
My current best is 265930 with 861 balloons popped.
Here's a few tips:
- The points you earn increase a lot for each balloon you pop before landing on the ground again.
- All balloons popped by the Blast powerup effect are worth 50 points (they're usually worth 10)
- Especially when the bomb starts timing down really quickly, try keeping as many balloons on-screen as you can. The easiest way to do this is by spacing your slash-n-dashes (that's what I'm calling them) in a way where you stay airborne, but pop balloons at a much slower rate.
