Beautiful Katamari - Schloss K Diameter Strategy *spoilers!*

This video shows (at the time it was made) the Xbox Live record for Schloss Kosmos diameter, but it is not an exciting video. It is slow paced.

To earn a diameter of 1,590,xxx km in Schloss Kosmos:

1. First you should have 10 of every kind of planet in the Cosmos. This means play normal mode in every normal level 10 times, every downloadable level 10 times, and every Co-op level 10 times.

2. Learn a nice fast route through the pre-space part of Schloss Kosmos. A video that can help is http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g1TymxWrTJE

If you have a "9" or higher showing as your time remaining after you are in space (including the 2 minute bonus), then you are fast enough.

3. Once you're in space grab the Moon, then (this is important!!) concentrate on grabbing all the Astro Jets and UFOs before you reach 600,000 km (at which time they disappear). This is what separates the 1,590,000s from the 1,579,000s. There are two groups of three UFOs, and probably six Astro Jets if not seven. Make sure you get them all before you start grabbing big stuff.

4. While going for Jets and UFOs grab the whole circle of little glasses planets. If you don't do this, one of them is very hard to get when you're big.

5. After you've got the glasses planets, UFOs and Astro Jets, before you reach a million km, grab all the stars from right around the Black Hole, as well as all the stars off the King's back. These will be hard to get later if you don't.

6. Finish off the stage! It's finally time to grab the Sun, the King and everything else. Be willing to spend a minute or more searching for stardust even after you can't see anything left except the Black Hole. If you make it to over 1,519,025 km before getting the Black Hole, then you'll be 1,590,000 km afterward.

7. Obviously, grab the Black Hole. I try to do it with at least 50 seconds left, just so I have time left if I can't get it right away. When you're this big it will probably be hard to grab, so roll around the outside edge of it (the accretion disk :D), avoiding the sphere in the center, since if you touch this you just plug the Hole and don't earn the Hole's diameter.

Actually, in the video it was lucky that I couldn't grab the Black Hole right away, because while trying to grab it I got a pesky Bright Shining Stars that's very hard to get, hiding right over the Black Hole. Lucky me!

how do you still have 13 minutes when you get into space???

[sloobro]

You can search for Schloss Kosmos 6:53.111 if you want to see how I did that.

Ummm why is it only 94 points

[sloobro]

Sailorstarleo is right ... If I wanted an 100 or 120 I'd need to pick up stuff like lots of sumo wrestlers, lots of cranes and scaffoldings ... sorry I forget most of the high value items but you need tons of stuff that makes gold stars fly from your cousin.

You are 1337. I bow down. Also, thanks for answering my fan mail, lol. I've never gotten a message back from a pr0 before(tried...), and 'preciate it. Thnaks.

[sloobro]

Thanks :) If I am a pr0 I am a very small-time one; I am really not that good at most games and I have been beaten on every level in this game (except maybe this one).
