Two things I'm just learning now:
1) you can bounce shards off your shield to attack bricks
2) launching another ball just as your first ball hits the bat will turn it into a super ball

Am I the only one that didn't realize this?

Wait - am I right in assuming most Euro PSN users use the US store as default? Ive been buying from the Aussie store like a sucker.

Bought Shatter for my Dad while on holiday - I'd love to give some impressions but I can't get the controller off either my wife or my mum Loving the soundtrack though and now I'm annoyed I didn't take advantage of the special pricing

WELLINGTON, New Zealand – March 3, 2010 – Sidhe, New Zealand's largest game production studio, today announced that award-winning its original title, Shatter® is coming to PC. Shatter PC will feature new PC-exclusive game modes including Endless Mode, Endless Co-op Multiplayer, Time Attack, and Time Attack Co-op Multiplayer.

Shatter PSN won IGN’s Best PlayStation Store Game of 2009, and the Best Downloadable Award at the Game Developers Association of Australia (GDAA) Game Developers Awards 2009. Now, PC gamers will have the opportunity to play the game, which will be available on Steam in the coming weeks and also feature Steam achievements and leaderboards.

“Bringing Shatter to new audiences has always been our goal,” said Mario Wynands, Managing Director of Sidhe. “Following the warm reception we received for the PlayStation 3 version, taking Shatter to PC on the Steam platform was a natural next step.”

Fixed.

Yeah, duh. That was a lousy way to let everyone know about the OST deal.

[Cyberbob]

For those a bit late to the party, Shatter Soundtrack edition is out now, as is a separate Soundtrack download.

It only came out on Steam yesterday, so nobody is really late to the party

It's been out on Bandcamp for a while, and you can get more formats there, including FLAC, but Steam now has it as well and there is a bundle of game and OST available there too.

Module, the dude who created the sound and soundtrack for Shatter, is doing a live performance of Shatter's music at the SF Bathhouse in Welly September 20.

He's also trying to find out how much interest there is in a video stream for those not in town who're keen to see it:

He performed some of it at the game launch, which some of you attended, and it was awesome. He has further developed it, and added a pretty cool light show.
