Under rating threshold (hideshow)
For the hard badge, easiest levels to get under par (for extra start) for me were second world levels 3,4,8,9,10,11,12,13,18,20. Trick is hitting the wood so it bounces on stone and back to wood.

I found extra starts on the levels : 2,3,6,7,8 and 12 of the first pack and on the levels 1, 3, 9, 11 on the second pack, one good trick to get these is trying to break some wood blocks using only one ball throwing the ball in order to bounce with another material in front of the wood block.

In set one there are also extra stars in 1-6 as well. I love this little game even though there are only two packs aqvaliable to play without getting the deluxe version.

World 1, lvl 15, pretty much like MYSTICWOLF said. For lvl 16, hit the top platform and the dance floor (in the outer corner) with 1 ball and wait for a long while till the lower platform stops moving.

Other than the ones QueenChibi has mentioned, I've found that World 1, lvl 15 and 16 are possible. The remaining ones that aren't "par 1" would be: W1: 14 and W2: 2, 6, 14, 15, 16. If these are possible that would give a total of 151 stars to be earned.

Extra hint: apparently when you hit the retry button, toshi is invulnerable to baseballs for like a split second, if you aim for toshi and manage to hit the retry button just before it hits her, she wont die and get pushed by it.

something that makes every single level possible to get extra star in, if your hand is fast enough, right after you shoot a ball, click retry
the ball will stay, and not count... also world 1: lvl 16 is possible, if you hit the metal ball perfectly at the perfect angle itll bounce into the air and hit the TNT behind it.

I've played this game to exhaustion and this is what I've determined for bonus stars.
world 1: 2, 3, 6, 7 (hard but doable), 8, 9, 10, 12, 13, 20
world 2: 1. 3. 4. 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 17, 18, 19, 20
also @technic 160 stars isn't possible that would require completing every stage under par... including the ones in which par is 1... you know, which would require 0 moves to finish under.

to get the hard badge like said before you need to get bonus stars you can get said bonus stars in world 1 stages 2, 3, 6, 8, 9, 10, 12, 13, 20, world 2 stages 1, 3, 4, 8, 10, 11 12, 13, 17, 18, 19, 20.

Hint: balls bounce. You can often break 1 or 2 wooden blocks with 1 ball if you think about where they will bounce to. Do NOT buy hints- they cost stars.

Still got the hard badge even after buying a hint. Levels I have plussed:
Pack 1: 2-3, 6-10, 12 and 20
Pack 2: 1, 3-4, 8-10, 11, 13, 17-18 and 20
That's 20 extra stars :D

my above par stages in stage 1 levels 3, 6-9, 12 and in stage 2 levels 3-4, 8-9, 11, 20. remember if you see wood blocks the right angle can break them in two (or if their touching you can hit two at once). The above is more than you need for the hard badge

For levels involving wooden blocks, a lot of the time you can save on shots by shooting at the gap between to blocks to hit them simultaneously, or bounce the ball off of one and into another. Helps get under par on a lot of levels.

gfloyd2002, if you hit the block twice near the top in quick succession in a slight diagonal direction (towards the dancefloor) then the same again in the actual direction of the dancefloor, you can complete the level in 4 moves instead of the 5 and get another extra star. :)

For hard badge, extra stars fairly easy on levels 1:3,6,8,9,10,12,20 and levels 2: 3,4,8,12,13. If you get these, you don't need to worry about a 3 star score on 2:1, which is pretty tough.

protip for helping get the hard badge! you can actually break a wood block with one shot if you hit the woodblock then get the same ball to bounce off a different block and hit the same block again. there are multiple situations where you can do this. hit + so others can see this!

OK, never mind there are a ton of levels you can do under par, and at least one you can do 4 under par. I got the badge on 2:18. Most important strategy is hitting wooden blocks with balls that bounce back off a wall into the same block.

The hard badge is doable, but you need to know that being under the par grant 4 star instead of 3 (yes the + is a star). You can be under the par in world 1 level 2;3;6;10;12 And World 2 level 9;11;12;17;18. Good luck badge hunter !
