I won 5 level mode because I saw a big group of yellows and used transform on them. They turned to red, so I used harvest and got 42 health.

Extending on Marvaddin's and plaplante's ideas, I have additional tips that allowed me to get 100k when eggs took 13 turns to hatch. 1, you dont have to use vampiric touch on blackies- any color will do. Because of this, avoid either blue or black, whichever is more common. 2, it is fine to get singles or doubles of your currently avoided color only if that color spell needs charging. 3, if you are desperate, you dont need to use transform before you use vampiric touch, nor do you need to go after the largest group. 4, use the black spells to go after golden eggs. When you kill a group that takes up over 2/3 of the level, you want to have as much time before the next hatch as possible, since odds are 3+ golden eggs will appear. 5, use vampiric touch as soon as possible unless you have over 25 health or you will inevitably create a yellow shortage.

I agree with most of the tips up here, but I think everyone's underestimating black powers. If you're playing it right, you should be turning colors and accumulating big groups of cuties, which will give you lots of golden eggs. Use the black powers to collect those golden eggs before they disappear. I aim to have Fire Blast, Transform, Vampiric Touch, and Harvest all up at the same time. I get a big group of cuties & Transform. If they turn red, use Harvest to get twice as many. If not, use Vampiric Touch. Then you'll have golden eggs, and I use Fire Blast to get them from a distance. That's how I beat the hard badge.

God damnit! Didnt your mother ever tell you the grim reaper dosent have a soul? He stuck it in a big box in his basement like all the ones he takes from us. This is common knowledge.

Strategy games don't usually hold my attention for too long. At first, this seemed impossible and I wasn't even going to put much effort into getting the Xenocutia badge. However, the more I played, the more I found that I was actually getting into it. Eventually, I won the badge without even really keeping track of the score. It was quite satisfying too :) Only complaint: needs more achievements!

So, what do you need to do to get the middle badge? I've won 5-level mode 4 times now, no badge. Normally I'd assume that Kongregate just failed to give me a badge, but the "5-level mode" button in the opening screen has only has one disc lit up, which makes me think that there's something else I need to do to get the badge. Any ideas?

After 6 failed tries last night, I decided to try again...very first game I play today I get the 100K. And that is why you never give up. In addition to the advice in the top comments, honestly you also need a bit of luck due to the random nature of the game.

To continue Marv's tips, if the transform ability turns the targets red, use the blue ability "harvest" to double the amount of life you're taking in

So, i was having troubles getting the medium badge when i read Marvaddin and Pla post...
Everything was going alright, and just when i had 30 lives and only 10 turns to win the last level... just when i was thinking "there is nothing that can stop me now" i got a blue screen...
...really? why?
Anyway, nice game had fun.

@localmusicians: you need to avoid the black ones as their special powers are the least useful. if you do not collect them for a long time, it will create a big group, which can be transformed to red ones to heal a lot of health at once.

Got to say, following a mix of Marvaddin and Plaplante's strategies made this badge not overly difficult. Another element I'd add is that where possible, try not to cut a hole through the middle of any possible big groups (i.e., you need eggs in the gaps to give yourself a chance of having a big group of whatever colour next time). Very entertaining game. 5/5

i don't get this game...no matter what cuties i kill my health goes down. RED ones DO NOT increase my health (unless increasing means from 20 to 19. There for ALL of then "increase" your health. Avoid black ones..why they do the same as all the others.

Some notes and tips: 1) You need to aim for golden eggs for the hard badge. I did it and when I got 100k, eggs were hatching each 12 turns, impossible without the eggs. 2) max life you can have is 40. 3) each soul counts for both skills of same color. 4) Strategy: kill all cuties red, blue and yellow, and avoid blackies at all costs. With time, eggs will hatch and create a big group of 20+ blackies. Use transform skill. If they get red, use harvest. If dont, use Vampiric Touch. Grab the eggs quickly and rush to biggest groups of yellow / blue. 5) While moving, dont care about normal eggs (-2 points) and use Jump if you go to a dead end of your big black group. Dont kill it until needed. 6) If you have black skills, use to grab eggs. 7) NEVER go for alone reds that are not in your route, as time passes will you level up, so its no good. If tips are useful, give it a + :O)

@JSilvis You can't get Golden Eggs if you don't kill groups of 10+ cuties. It appears to be :
10 : 1 GE
15 : 2 GE
20 : 3 GE
But I might be wrong
