The hard badge is hard. You need $300,000 for the badge. With all trophies, that's $134,000 (+5,000 end fee). You can get $30,000 a day with max upgrades by collecting 31 large diamonds -- go horizontal at 2,000-2,500 feet, using boosts to fill the screen with more diamonds.

I know it seems really hard but after playing for a while you get the hang of it and you can figured out how to prioritize which upgrades you need to upgrade faster and in what order. I was about to complete it at week 7. (Then again this was after two hours of gameplay.)

meh, grindy games aren't worth badges. if you don't get the badge your first time through there is very little desire to replay it.

Some hints for the badge: Focus on fuel, drill and hull and a bit radar in the beginning. Get the mole 2 as soon as you can. Mole 3/4 can destroy small/large rocks blocking your way. Don't waste nitro in upper areas. If you become too slow, stay higher and go horizontally. You can reach 2600ft (trophy) by using nitro at 2500ft. Good luck!

Hmm. This all seems very familiar...

Not that I'm complaining.

There should be a sandbox mode. Even with all of the upgrades I can only get to 20 large diamonds. The spawn rate needs to be increased.

its annoying that you much collect 25 big diamonds in one dig of the 25 days. it doesnt add the ones you collect onto previous ones just the amount you just gotten

Click the period at the end of the Hard badge description and you'll go to (in another tab/window) a hilarious YouTube music video of SNL's Adam Samberg.

I first played this game in 2011. It was fun, but hard to win because you have such a short time limit. In 2016, I have finally gotten the hard badge. I can now retire and enjoy my big ass boat. Good luck, everybody!

Am I the only one that noticed the hard badge takes you to the Y-tube video "I'm on a boat" if you click the period at the end?

The Mech Mole is incredibly useful when trying to get the medium badge. It basically let's you save fuel and get things from a far distance. (read Mech Mole description)

Easy to max everything out. getting the diamonds on the other hand... Ehhhhhh....
Decent gameplay, but definitely NEEDED work.

Why doesn't he just sell his drill or mole? I mean, I'd gladly pay 300k for a mole that can suspend itself in space and defy all physics and logic.
