Included in the latest version of Echoes is un-lockable mini-game Crack! To unlock Crack! you need to achieve a Zoot score of 50% or greater in Echoes. Although rumour has it there may be another way to unlock it  It's a no nonsense quick blast (quite possibly the simplest shmup of all time) so don't expect anything too spectacular but it hopefully lives up to it's name.  Intentionally vague image so not too much is given away until people have unlocked it.  |

Aside from a few very minor tweaks to the difficulty, yes. |

SPOILER WARNING:
Well, it will probably not be some weird key-combo or highscore name and such. More probably the other way has something to do with playing the game. I wouldn't be surprised if the "other way" has to do with completing the game - either in any difficulty level, or a specific difficulty level.

But I thought it can't be completed... I mean it goes on forever till you die once you reached Level 10. Maybe you have to "clear the screen once" to unlock it. But that's seems nearly impossible, too...  |

Hi SpaceFreakMicha and welcome I wont say exactly how as I don't want to spoil the challenge for those that want to open it the "proper" way. What I will say though is that Lyx is wrong |

What I will say though is that Lyx is wrong Thank you, that is enough of a clue. It's nice to look for it when you know a kind of direction and when Lyx is wrong I have a direction to search in. |

my money is on a method where you don't even have to play the game to unlock crack.
Something like that certain "easter egg".
unlocking "crack" by "completing" the game just doesn't make sense as you would've most likely gotten the 50% already by then.

Maybe destroying 2 huge asteroids at the same time, because the sound produced is a huge "CRACK!!!". |
