Angry Birds Space Mirror Worlds and Brass Hogs Now Available!

While Angry Birds Space does not receive the most frequent updates, we have little to complain about today. We teased this update last week and now Mirror Worlds & Brass Hogs (v2.1.0) has landed! The update is currently available for iOS, Steam, and Android via Google Play.

Intergalactic super-villain Hektor Porko is hiding out in another dimension – The Mirror World. Take out his steampunk cronies in an all-new episode, Brass Hogs, to dive into the Mirror World and go face to mustachioed face with Hektor himself!

This update includes (a TON of stuff):

  • 30 new levels in the Brass Hogs episode! Our walkthroughs are available when you need them.
  • Mirror World! Every single level (except Eggsteroids and Danger Zone) now has a mirror! Each of these 260 levels is unlocked by 3-starring its “normal” equivalent. For example, if you’ve 3-starred Pig Bang Level 1-1, then Level M1-1 will be unlocked in the Mirror World! Or, if you don’t want to 3-star all of the levels, you can unlock all Mirror World levels as an $5.99 in-app purchase. Simply click the shopping cart to check our all IAPs! Before you can play the Mirror Worlds you need to unlock them by beating level 9-2. Check out the video above for more details.
  • Leaderboard Situation: We will be discussing whether to create leaderboard entries for the Mirror levels. We will keep you posted.
  • Daily Missions! Each day there are 3 new missions, completing which will help you unlock more and more levels in Brass Hogs! For example, 5 completed missions are required to unlock Level 9-4… which is why you’ll see “x/5” over its level icon.
  • No new Sardine Can levels, though our walkthroughs are available for past episodes if you need them
  • New Golden Eggsteroids? We don’t think there are any in this update… But be sure to keep an eye out and check out our Complete Eggsteroids Guide.
  • Two new iOS achievements!
  • Wingman added to the cast of Power Ups. His ability is rather different than is “original Angry Birds” equivalent, but equally destructive!
  • You can find our Froot Loop Bloopers walkthroughs here.

So what are you waiting for? Blast off into this new horizon!

Special Mini Froot Loop Bloopers Episode

Angry Birds Space Froot Loops Bloopers Level Selection Screen

In addition to all the new content above, this update includes a special mini Froot Loop Bloopers episode that features five Froot Loop themed levels. To access this episode tap the Froot Loops Bloopers icon above the Brass Hogs planet. In these levels the Space Eagle has been replaced by Toucan Sam, or, the Toucan Sam Highscore.

Note, it appears that this is only available in the US. If you have any additional info please leave a comment below.

Our walkthroughs for the Froot Loops Bloopers levels can be found here. We also added a leaderboard, but since not everyone has access to these levels we’ve disable entry. This will keep things fair for all.

  • Video walkthroughs for all Angry Birds Space levels can be found on the Space walkthrough pages.
  • Need help on with Space Eggs? Our Complete Space Egg Guide has more information.
  • Our Complete Eggsteroids Guide has be updated for the newest Eggsteroid.
  • Looking for feathers? Total Destruction video walkthroughs for previous levels are live to help you out.
  • Brand new Complete Feather Level Guide to help you through these very challenging levels.
  • For a complete list of all achievements available in Angry Birds Space, see our page.
  • The Leaderboards is live with the new levels, so see how you compare to some of the best in the world! That said, please DO NOT enter scores obtained using Power Ups on our leaderboards.

just a quick update on previous – I opened application and one of my daily mission is to try out all power ups!?! I guess it is intended to make “non power up” players to purchase some (once when they spend all that they got for free as daily rewards). I don’t like this…

Each of today’s missions had a “1” under the image, so I assume they were worth 1 point toward that total. We’ll probably see more-challenging missions in the future that will be worth more than 1 point.

Actually both Eggsteroids and Danger Zone do have mirror levels as well. But at least on my android Eggsteroids lvl 10 is broken. The game exits when trying to open this level. Also the same happens trying to open Beak Impact 2 episode mirror.

Forgot to mention: Mirror Worlds are just that, horizontally mirrored and darkened versions of original levels. As a right handed person I might have preferred to play most levels this way, if it had been an option originally. However the value of simple mirroring now remains to be seen.

Oh My Bird or ‘Kuukkeli vieköön’ as natives might say. You are absolutely correct @dmsral, it’s no simple mirror world it is whole Parallel Birdverse. Hector Porko and varying degree of additional changes seem to appear on every mirror level.

This must be the most terrifying update from Rovio ever, for that matter, it might be the most terrifying update of any mobile game ever which I leave for those to judge that posses broader knowledge of the field.

From the couple of levels in Pig Bang, the levels are completely different. Level 1 has 5 pigs instead of 1 and level 2 has 5 pigs instead of 4. If it were my decision, there would be a second set of leader boards since the levels are not exact mirrors of each other (at least not yet)

By Sglouk (@sglouk)

@sparty83

I fully agree. The mirror level are completely different game. When it is similar but with more strucures, it is nice to still have in mind the strat, and you get more points, but when it is the same design but different birds (e.g., 1-17), you really have to restart from scratch, and often you have less points (at least less obvious points).

Moreover, these levels are more difficult to play on a small screen before of the weaker color contrast and the larger size of some levels. Therefore, I would support a separate leaderboard.

Having 30 new levels, 5 or so Try Me levels, 5 Froot Loops levels.. PLUS a mirror universe with EVERY AB Space level that has come before it.. this is definitely the biggest update to an AB game EVER.

Plus, I am still floored that Toucan Sam is now an official playable (sort of) character in Angry Birds (he replaces the Space Eagle in the Froot Loops levels).

And to top it all off, this is an official AB Steampunk game!!!

Major kudos to Rovio on this. Almost makes up for such a long time between updates. I honestly thought Space was done with.

What really bothers me though, is the story. I am hoping we will someday get a story of how they get back to Earth and Piggy Island. And why the Eggsteroids are so important to Ice Bird.

@Josm

Yeah, I have 2.1.1 — that’s what I just upgraded to and that is when it broke. It worked before that, as far as I know, though I haven’t opened Space in a while.

No, I am pretty sure that because my Android tablet has Intel guts that Rovio is leaving it behind. It can’t be a coincidence that Epic goes belly up and then a month later Space crashes immediately as well. They just don’t care.

And I reported the Epic crashing to them a few days ago, no reply as of yet. All they need to do is get an ASUS test tablet that crashes and debug and see what is going on.

Unlike Epic, I can’t download Space on my iPhone and chip away at the new levels — I’d have to start from scratch because the game isn’t saved on their servers. At least with Epic I am still hammering away using my iPhone and that progress will be there when (if ever) I can play the game again on the much more pleasurable experience of my 7-inch tablet.

Just FYI, Angry Birds Go! has been flaky as well since a couple updates ago, showing completed progress as 78%, then back to 100%, and now blacking out after every time I do a daily challenge. Super frustrating for how graphically simple these Rovio games are, comparatively speaking. Why on earth they would every need to lose compatibility with a certain branch of hardware is totally incomprehensible to me — keep it vanilla.

No froot loops bloopers for me either…
Despite being in the UK where the product is sold (using free version on Android 4.4.4). Also, with these levels seemingly limited to certain countries, and in turn, a small minority of players, why have a leaderboard that will inevitably affect the overall ranking in ABsp for those unable to play the episode/levels?; seems a bit unfair to me!

Furthermore, I must be the only one who doesn’t like this update…
For starters, having to wait each day for missions in order to unlock levels is yet another way for Rovio to dictate when and how we play the game, besides from which, not everyone is able to play every day, so what happens if you miss the daily missions? An incomplete episode perhaps? Or the expectancy to pay for the remaining levels?
I also refuse point blank to use pu’s, meaning I can only complete 2/3 missions for the day one missions, and as such I’m already at an unfair (imo) disadvantage in so for as unlocking the next available level/s. What happened to just giving us a full episode to play and enjoy in our own time without dictatorship etc?

Additionally, what’s with the mirror levels?..
This might seem like a huge update for some, but for me personally, I’d rather ‘not’ play every episode/level again, regardless of whether they are upside-down, back-to-front, sideways, mirrored or otherwise; played them enough the first time around! And the second time around for that matter!

In any case, Rovio have again ruined my enjoyment of yet another app, and with less and less to play, I’m finding other things to do with my time, so hey ho, I guess it’ll soon be a case of saying “it was fun while it lasted”.

@leggy I partly agree.
But @mikroll79 is right. Test-levels appear and your score there does not appear elsewhere. That said, this feature is of course ment to give you the taste for using PU’s, and I don’t particularly like it.
As for the mirror levels I for one have no one intention to play them all, to me it feels tedious and boring. Just my opinion, I’m sure lots of people feel otherwise. But I sincerely hope it will be decided not to have them on the leaderboards.

@leggy I wholeheartedly agree with everything you have said here. Rovio is one-by-one ruining their games… Space has always been my favorite, and I was praying this update wouldn’t ruin it for me.
But it has.
I’m particularly irked over the Fruit Loops promo. Rovio no longer makes original content. All they do is advertise other products through their games. Ham Dunk. On Finn Ice. Fruit Loops. The sponsored level contest. I paid for AD FREE games and theyre undermining that. Rovio is no longer a creative app developer. They’re an advertising that relies on other companies to make revenue.
And the timer levels. That’s Supercell territory. Supercell makes currency and time based games that are enjoyable and have no outside promos whatsoever. Rovio is trying to get in on their gig and in the process ruining every single app they make. What happened to being able to sit down on a long plane ride and beat an Angry Birds game? Those were good times, and I loved being able to do that.
But those times are gone and Rovio games are no longer any fun.

What a load of cods-whallop!…
As previously stated, I refuse to use pu’s and I don’t want to play the mirror episodes/levels, so that leaves me with just one option and it doesn’t even have the green arrow. So okay, I hit each of the red boxes with the ‘x’ but then got a message stating that I’d have to wait 30mins for a new mission. Like c’mon?

@leegy, it is early days yet, but I will cautiously step ionto the dislike side.

Some of the comments made above within hours of release strike me as giddy and unbelieveable.

There are flaws. The frequency of video ads forced me to spend 99c to avoid and perhaps that was Rovio’s intent. But I recall a discussion several months ago that Rovio favoured the ads over paiy for games model.
Either way Rovio may have shot themselves in the foot.

But my biggest complaint is the mirror world levels are so murky that I can’ distinguish the birds. They all look grayish to me and on some levels with small graphics, its hard to discern their shape. So I waste a few plays to figure out which is which by experimenting and hope I can remember later.. Utopia mirror level 18 is particularly bad. The last two birds look like blues, but they don’t split, so I guess they must be little red. Is this any way to release a game?

Rank: Sling God with 24375 points
By justpast40 (@justpast40)

@birdmeister, your comment about M4-18 made me curious, so I checked it out on my iPad.

I agree with you that some Mirror levels seem murky & in quickly looking thru some of them, it seems to me that Utopia may be the worst. I imagine on older smaller devices it may be pretty darn difficult to determine which birds we have in the lineup or sling. I did launch all of them on M4-18 & the last 2 certainly are blues & they did split. I even tried on my Android phone & they split here too.

I had trouble getting this update to install on my Android phone & at 1st the gameplay wasn’t smooth. I restarted the phone & it was a little better, but all of those ads made it almost impossible to play so I turned off both data & wifi & it seems to be running more smoothely. Perhaps 1 of these will fix the blues not splitting for you.

Many Mirror World levels on my Android tablet cannot be played due to a bug that affects blues and Purple Bird. Purple bird keeps flying straight and blues won’t split when triggering. In addition to Utopia 18, Brass Hogs 2,3 and 5 are unplayable. I have given up trying to find a workaround.

Rovio has again issued a poorly functioning update for Android.

@birdMeister

At least the app opens for you (though it sounds like I’m not missing much… *smile*)…

It seems to me like this might be a basic performance issue. Because from what I have read on this thread, it sounds like the interface simply is not responding to the secondary tap (that would split Blue or directionally fire Purple).

Do any birds utilizing a secondary tap work properly (I can’t even remember the Space birds…)? With the mirroring, ads, and just general crashiness folks are talking about, I am guessing the app simply can’t detect user input after the bird is launched.

Thanks,

I’m having trouble getting the next levels unlocked – it says I have to use all the powerups. I thought I did – I used 4 different powerups (3 red birds, egg, green pig, bird in a helmet), but it didn’t unlock. I think it’s suggesting that there’s one left I have to do. In the PU store, there’s a suitcase with lightning on it, but no option to try that one, as far as I can tell. Can a video be posted of exactly what one does to unlock the 4th level in Brass Hogs? If they’re going to require me to keep using power ups (I’ve never purchased them), I guess I’ll be done with the Brass Hogs levels, which is a little disappointing.

Did you do the Space Eagle one?

I hadn’t, but I just tried it, and still no dice – says I need to still use one of the power ups. However, then something weird happened. I replayed level 3, and when I completed it, the arrow forward icon was available, so I pressed it, and it took me to level 4. I kept playing levels, moving forward (did about 10 more), but then when I exited, it shows those levels as still locked, even though it also shows I have stars on them! Alas, I can’t re-enter those levels unless I replay from level 3 through. Guess I’ll have to find the time to play all of them in a row. Clearly it’s buggy in not properly unlocking level 4, and in letting me proceed anyway. Very frustrating.

Ok – so now I get it. I wasn’t supposed to use my own power ups – I was supposed to click on the Try It button in the store for each of them, and use them all successfully. Got that done now!

Oh – but now it seems like I have to wait for 16 hours? I don’t get it. It says I unlocked all the daily tasks, but now I can’t play the next level? This seems horrible, if that’s it. Anyone else get it?

@gavza you have 3 achievements every 16 hours, it will take weeks-months to unlock the levels. ((or play with time settings))

@gavza @josm But you get more than 1 achievement per day. Different missions have different weights, it seems. I’m up to 17 completions now, using only two 16-hour cycles.

Well this stinks. The entire mirror world is extremely slow and choppy for me, even the menus. The normal game works fine but the mirror part is almost unplayable.

I take it back. It isn’t “almost unplayable” it is unplayable. Along with the slow and choppy I can’t activate any of the birds powers either.

Some things I found out. You wouldn’t need to beat 360 daily missions to eventually unlock the final Brass Hogs level. For my second set of daily missions, each one gave me 2 points. So I have 9 points in total now and unlocked up to the 5th level. I doubt that it’d keep increasing linearly but this is good to know.
This time I got red Xs for the missions. I tried pressing on one because the mission was something I didn’t like doing. It erased it and said it will give me a new one 30 minutes later.
I tried changing my iPhone time to 1 hour later to see what would happen. It indeed accelerated the time and unlocked the 30 minute timer. Didn’t check if restoring the time would lock it again. And the other two 16 hour timers moved forward by an hour too. I guess I could unlock 360 points of missions quickly this way, but didn’t feel like doing it. And a bit worried that I might break the game in some way.

Got home from work and as soon as possible I downloaded this update. I guess there already was an update to the update. I am running 2.1.1 on Android Jellybean 4.1.2. I am playing the ad supported version (as I was a cheap skate when it first came out). On very annoying thing about this is that when the ads show up, my screen goes black. I was able to make an old school video of this happening. At about the 26 second mark of the vid, the ad drops down on the upper right and the entire screen goes black. I have to hit the back button on the phone for the Pause screen to show up. Even while playing, if I hit the pause screen, that part of the screen will go black and I have to rely on my memory to guess where to tap for what I want to do.

I have had the screen go black while playing a level and have a bird pulled back about to release. This is not good.

@admins,

I contacted Rovio about the ads blacking out the game during game play, this is their response:

Hello,

and thanks for contacting us.

We are currently investigating these problems with ads in the games and we will hopefully get them fixed in no time at all. We are also investigating the missing scores you have in Seasons. We apologize for the inconvenience.

If you were to upgrade to the paid version, all of your progress would be lost unless you manually transfer them to the game. You can find more information on how to do this here: https://www.angrybirdsnest.com/how-to-back-up-angry-birds-progress-on-android-rooted-and-non-rooted/

We apologize for the inconvenience!

Best regards,

Do you have decided whether the mirror world level will be part of the overall leaderboard? I have noticed that on the Game Center, only ordinary level are taken into account.

That phone has an Intel processor, right? As does my ASUS Memopad 7.

I think that is the problem. Whatever new dev Rovio is doing appears to be having issues with Intel-based Android now. Both Space and Epic worked fine before, but recent updates make the apps not even load.

I have a support request in to Rovio for both Epic and Space, but have not heard anything back (it has been several days, but I imagine they are pretty swamped with the Space release and the ongoing issues with Epic…)

Thanks for the response, though — really is starting to look like the Intel core is the problem.

The ARM processor in the Samsung unit is apparently more standard for Android (more common than Intel, anyway). So that is probably why it still works on that.

By now we know that mirror levels are significantly different and Froot Loops are not available for nearly everyone.

Consequently I propose:
1. Separate Mirror Space leaderboard with appropriate adjustments.
2. Exclude Froot Loops from total scores.

OK still not really happy with this update… I completed all three missions for today (2nd day of gameplay) but only two levels were unlocked; regular and mirror. 3-starred those but level 6 is still not unlocked. My understanding was that there would be 1 unlocked level per mission?
Tried restarting my device and rebooting the game, no change.
Did I miss something (again)?

Rank: Sling God with 24070 points

@steely59

On the episode screen, you have a number of requested points to perform to unlock a level. It grow faster than 1 point per level, and possibly the number of points you get depends on the mission. After the 2nd round of mission, I could only unlock level 5, not 6.

Rank: Sling God with 32120 points
By AMslimfordy (@amslimfordy)

@steely59 What does it say over the spot where Level 6 is?

Also, make sure you’re in “normal” mode. The mirror level won’t unlock until you 3-star the original.

Rank: Avian Overlord with 18080 points

@amslimfordy It says 10/13. All 3 missions have been completed; there is a red 0 over the blue exclamation mark and I am in the “normal” mode.

@steely59 Different missions have different values. When you get new ones, you’ll see … almost looks like a silver coin … with a number on it. That indicates the value.

For example, I am now at 17/18.

@amslimfordy Thx..so all I can do for now is wait? And when new missions appear, try and request the ones with higher values to be able to move ahead quicker?

@steely59 Perhaps so. I didn’t notice it myself until you mentioned it. But having 17/18 myself, there’s certainly something going on. I’ll check more closely in a few hours when mine comes around again.
