COPYCAT-Mode Help

Welcome to the support forum for the COPYCAT-Mode in PLÄTTCHEN - twist 'n' paint.

If you have problems with beating any Copycat level, post it in this thread along with a short description what's going wrong.
We will then open a new thread for this specific level and write a short strategy how to beat it in an optimal way. If the thread to a level already exists, we will, if necessary, add new information there.

If you can beat a level in fast or cool way, do not hesitate to upload a video to YouTube and post the link here. We will subsequently post the link in the right thread.

I hope you all enjoy the COPYCAT-Mode!

how hard is this to do?

It is simple to copy a picture to the plattchen field - but the time limit lets the COPYCAT-Mode become really hard.

Watch this Fun stuff video:

The first seconds show the COPYCAT-Mode and how it plays ... just reversed. You can see, that a friend can help you cooperatively to make things easier.

WOW that video looks amazing. So you just get to paint a picture of what you see? Very good, actually it was too hard in lumines because u didnt have so much freedom with the falling blocks. i kept screwing it up.

in plattchen it looks so much easier and relaxing. i dont know if i like the idea of a time limit thou. i think i would find that stressful, can u turn it off and just relax?

POP is a good game for relaxing because if u dont want to play for score u can just shoot bubbles for fun. no pressure. its good when Hugo comes round, he will play it for a while then we'll play some halo 3.

so can u play the copycat mode with 2 players? ^_^ fröhliches Anime-Kirby

In the Name entry screen (with bubbles) also has no time limit but funny noises.

The CLASSIC-Mode as well the COPYCAT- and MISSION-Mode have cooperative game play for up to 4 players simultaneously!

hey did u ever play the name entry screen on monkey ball? in that u roll into the letters, that the best thing eva!!

i like it at the end when u have to run and collect all the bananas, but watch out for the names falling down on u. if u touch a letter u lose some bananas. its quite a clever game i think. i didnt like it so much on the wii with banana blitz. stupid controls!!!! ò_ó wütendes Kirby

Yes that is right (Monkey Ball is great and the Banana Blitz controls are not as intuitive as in Kororinpa). We also added some little things because it is fun to play ... a name entry should be fun or/and challenging and we also added funny noises and splots and some Plättchen animations to the COPYCAT-Mode because it is just fun to play around with things like Colours, Tiles and Sounds
=) fröhliches Kirby

We wanted PLÄTTCHEN to be as much fun as possible. There are also some little gimmicks like a Menu-Camera if you use the Nunchuck (hold the C button) or a hidden ingame zoom function and more. There is much to discover in PLÄTTCHEN.

I think I found an unsolvable Copycat picture (unless I'm doing something wrong when solving it). On Copycat 4-14, in the last picture, there are 4 tiles that are painted white from the previous picture that need to be painted black, but you don't have black in your Colorwheel @.@ verwirrtes Kirby

Here are the pictures for Copycat 4-14

Nice picture!!! =) fröhliches Kirby

Yes, it is true that COPYCAT 4-14 is not beatable at the moment. There is also a second level which has this problem. Find it! ;-) zwinkerndes Kirby

We will solve that problem with a future update.

I remember that level - but it slipped my mind until now. And I thought I'd been doing it wrong...

0.o and I thought I was obsessed!!!

I can tell you, 5-3 Copycat is a problem for me, too. Don't know if it's not beatable, but I can't beat it by myself. I also can't beat 2-1 copycat, so it may just be me sucking, XD lachendes Kirby

I have 23 Time Diamonds, and am just about to give up on the Time Diamonds and move on, XD lachendes Kirby

. I can't beat them!

Well, this level is unbeatable for me, too, which puts it at the only level in the game!

Thanks to Aenigma (THANKS!) for giving me his save file too, I managed to beat ALL classic 100% again, ALL Missions, and all but this one evil Copycat!!!

So close, but the game really DOES take forever to beat, as it's not even possible at the moment! Soon, though!

Someof the COPYCAT pictures are just designed to be beatable with a friend! I for one play it with two friends! It is fun to paint around and do some music (every Plattchen has another bing) while working together to beat the game! It is also easier to beat the Missions together with a friend.

It is great that it takes so long to beat the game, doesn't it? Everyone wo is able to beat PLATTCHEN is a real hardcore-gamer! =) fröhliches Kirby

Yep! 199 Time Diamonds, which should be all that's possible!

So iSecter 4, its a glitch? When will you have an update? If you do could you add a control scheme to switch color wheel with the D-Pad?

WiiBoy · Site Admin Joined: 15 Sep 2008 Posts: 398 Location: Vienna

We do not have the Money=Time=Possibility to do an update right now - the future will show when we will be able to update the game.

To control the ColourWheel by wristing is the great fun in PLÄTTCHEN! Just pressing buttons would be totally boring. You can select the speed of the ColourWheel or/and use the Nunchuck if you have problems with that.
As I told you, you can Lock the ColourWheel if you hold any button - then you can also switch between two colours by adjusting the speed (from 1:1 to 2x).

Especially the COPYCAT-Mode would be much too easy and boring if you just would have to press any button for a colour. Tilting the Wii Remote is one of the innovative challenges you get in PLÄTTCHEN. Removing this great-feature would remove the fun too. No twisting and painting - "PLÄTTCHEN - paint" =/ enttäuschtes Kirby

An update would've been nice, but when you say it like that, I suppose it makes sense. After all, newer Bplus ideas over updates that won't generate extra money for more games seems pretty understandable :) lächelndes Kirby
