cool game. thanks. BTW running 3.40OE and using the 1.0 fw version of game.
As for game play can you speed up the ball a little bit?
Is there a way to add more or change the music?
Keep up the Great work!
Trying to post score but so far not working???

OE users use the 1.0 versions which are more stable then the 1.50 ones.

GBO isn't finished yet!
20 out of 70 are included in the demo. It's hard sometimes to find the inspiration to create the extra 50
levels needed for the full version, while keeping them all unique and fun to play.
If you want to help out, use the level editor to create some levels and email the levels you create to
undrmnr@gmail.com. The levels you create are likely to appear in the next version; so everyone can enjoy
your creations.
The levels from the level editor are stored by default in the levels folder inside the folder where you
installed GBO. By default this is PSP/GAME/GBO_Demo/levels. You can copy these files to your hard drive
and attach them to an email.
My goal is to have one music track for every planet. If you have the talent to create music that fits the GBO style,
please mail your tracks to undrmnr@gmail.com as well. The preferred format is: mp3 mono 96 kbps.

» submitting rankings
It seems some people R having problems with this. See the manual>online rankings @ galacticbreakout.com.
It involves telling the game wich connection to use.

» interesting
I myself use 3.02 OE-A, I believe and the fw 1.00 version of the game. I'm using a unsecured (no WEP) wireless network.
If you have set WiFi-ConnectConfig to 1 (in case of one connection) you should be good to go. Somehow it can take very long to connect, up to 15 seconds. Make sure your wifi signal is over 50% in strength. When then wifi LED is off or turns off, this is an indication of a failed attempt.
Pfew, long list. Got to admit it's hard. But at least 3 people succeeded. I'll test if can still connect with WEP on.

» gonna have to try with no WEP
Well my Wifi is WEP secured maybe that's why it isn't working. Connection signal is good (I'm in the same room as the router) I left it "trying" to conect for over 10 mins .. plenty of time I'd say. :-)

» WEP confirmed not working
Trying a WEP cost me a helluvalot trouble setting up my router, only to find out that it does NOT work. Everyone who uses an encrypted connection should disable it if they want to submit their scores. By the way, rankings can also be viewed from the website.

» "working" kind of?
Ok I turned off WEP and now it will connect to the Ranking board. But how do I get it to post my score? I had a score of over 200,000 .... then I died so does that reset my score to Zero? Then how do I get the score to post before I die?
Does the Ranking Board update autommatically when scores are posted or does it take "awhile"?

» it updates instantly
It updates whenever you select rankings from the main menu. This means that when you are game over and connect to rankings your score will be set to 0. This might be a bit harsh, so maybe I should include a dialog that asks you if you want to post your score if you died, and let the server only update it if it is higher than the previous one you submitted.

» end games posting...
Yeah I think you should be able to post your score that you "HAD" before you died.
Then when either you start a new game or close out of game your stats are ereased (unless you posted them to the board ;-)
I think that would be cool.
I've still got to figure out how do I go to rankings while I'm still playing the game and not dead....
