A consistent strategy for Cold Cuts level 2-1 is to send the Red bird into the top-right icy asteroid. It seems to be the easiest shot that yields three stars.

Try to aim for the back of the icy asteroid pack. It yields more damage for me. 46695.
Back of the… what???
He meant the top right small asteroid. Same shot as video from FujiToast.
I was wondering about that. The obvious choice would be to go for one of the asteroids closest to the slingshot, but you won’t get your 3rd star that way. So, top right it is.
A small clarification of nomenclature is in order here:
The icy boulders would in fact be comets, while the rocky boulders would more accuately described as asteroids.
True, but the icy ones behave like the classic “asteroids” arcade game. I guess it’s another nod to the classics.
That could be the case, but I thought it would be a good idea to inject the proper terminology for the individual bodies, I mean, since NASA is a partner in this….
totally agree ;-)
I had trouble with this level until I tried your strategy. Finally got 3 stars. Thanks!
Oooooh I see. The “back of the icy asteroid” is referred to the third up, from left to right. Cool!!!
aiming for the smaller icy asteroid in the upper back yields 47410 and 3 stars! :) yay!
Yeup: “north-east” asteroid.
I did this “north-east” technique 10 times in a row – 47,340 score every time…
Closed the game, restarted, same thing again
Thats not random, makes me thing the max score you can get is somehow set on starting the level the first time
I did the same with the ame 47340 over and over…how did you get above that? Ty:)
@ kkendel, perfect, north-east is what the Dr. Ordered!! I have been stuck at the repeated same scores for days, thanks!!!! My sanity thanks you as well!! :)
Same thing here – wonder if it’s specific to hardware? 47,340.
It is not hardware related, but rather impact points and where the red bird drifts.
47340 AGAIN more than a YEAR later when I came back to get score addict. Clearly this level won’t be helping me improve, lol.
Hit the astroid at the 1 o’clock location dead on. I’ve gotten 47340 and 3 stars 5 times in a row
Love the tribute to the old arcade game Asteroids here. Too bad we can’t include the wrap around screen like the old days! Spent a lot of lunch money at the 7-11 playing that game, maybe thats why I was so scrawny.
So how do we get more than 47,340 then?
I got the same score 20 times in a row just to try… I’d like to know what the top scorers did differently ?
I am itching to try on a different platform. As far as I can tell, there is no way to go higher on an iPhone. Gotta clear PB on my Kindle so I can test this one out!
Same score both on Android and PC. Can’t get higher…
Got 47370 on PC using weaker shot
48420 thanks to Laurence, but how did you guys get over 50000?
There are only 6 scores above 47340, and hundreds at 47340! Is this device dependent? How were the high scores obtained?
I’m on iPhone 3GS (which has a reduced screen size compared to PC/Mac/iPhone 4 etc) but currently have the highscore (which I doubt will last!) There are actually two ways of obtaining 47340+ scores, one easier than the other!
First of, the easier one: Aim the red bird towards the usual ice-teroid, but add less power. You want it so that the end of the ‘sightline’ lines up just underneath the top left ice-teroid. May take a couple of goes, but 47900 scores are possible like this!
Secondly, the harder (and less reliable method) Aim the red bird at the FRONT MIDDLE ice-teroid with greatly reduced power! You want to hit it so that it doesn’t split into three, but is pushed into the pig in the middle. Occassionly this will lead to a chain reaction that destroys everything, leading to 48k plus scores.
Hope this helps people stuck on 47340 :)
Thank-you, Laurence! Using your second strategy saved me from the 47340 traffic jam. Using less power is really counterintuitive for me, the black bird is my favorite for the immediate destructive gratification!
Sorry about taking your high score, temporally anyway ;-)
I didn’t get much more, but hitting the standard 1 o’clock comet-ball with a slightly reduced power bird gave me 47380. At least I am off of the big pack.
Thanks for the tip! Strategy #1 got me off the big pack first try. Now to give strategy #2 some time…
Thank you Laurence for these alternate strategies. I used the second strat and hit 54070 within the first five attempts. Have scored over 50k several times since using this strat.
Thanks again!!
Thanks Laurence,
I was beginning to feel like I was in the Twilight Zone, stuck on the same score. I hope this method gets me out of this loop!
Great strat Laurence! Thanks :)
Made a video
(got the first 11 of Cold Cuts done and uploaded, didn’t want to keep you any longer without)
Increase to 49,610 after watching Estars video.
Has anyone noticed that the first iceteroid spins different ways depending on the reset. ???
Ty laurence:) got away from the 47 jam…with second strat..48260:) ty a lot
Wow Laurence I can’t beleive how clever this was of you…below you say something about not being worthy of the title but oh yes you are!!! I had been stuck on the 47340 and came here to enter my score and see if it was average and boy was it ever! I read your strats and they both worked great. Your first way I got 48490 and your second way I got 48465, so thank you and I realize others have used your way and got higher scores but that’s not the point, the point is how smart of you to think of it!!!Although you say the second came by way of the first but I find it incredible that you thought to slow it down in the first place as it’s so against the norm…and not to easy to get the hang of…it makes so much sense now but very smart of you to figure that would do the trick…KUDOS!!!
Thanks Laurence, you’re a great help! :)
You really deserve the “High IQ” badge.It’s startling that so many of us failed to think up that strat.
Obtained 49500 with your second method, thanks! :)
Awesome! #2 did the trick!
Thanks Lawrence 49,110 with a slow launch to the first iceteroid.
The average scores are going up. ;-))
At first I didn’t get it, but when I read @lesleyg‘s strategy (Laurence’s strategy with little more clarification) I got it! Thank you Laurence and AA! :)
…Am I the only person here that still got stuck with around 47k? I tried your second strategy and it NEVER works for me! The highest I got from it is only 46k! What is happening????
Excellent strategy! Would never have thought of slowing down but #2 got me above average for the first time! Many Thanks
Between your description and e-star’s video I scored pretty good in this level, thank you.
WOW I can’t believe it! 54070 with your second strategy! That must have been some kind of 1/1.000.000 shot. I got it at about the 6th try with your strategy.
It took me only 5 minutes but I doubt it’ll be broken any time soon when I see the leaderboards.
That is damn impressive, but if I were you I’d upload a screenshot since you are head and shoulders above everyone else and you will probably be getting a request from Slim to verify.
I don’t know, now that the strategy is out, I bet the leaderboard moves up in a hurry to catch up to the new leader. 54K probably won’t even be top score by the end of the day.
I just hope you’re wrong.
But I guess it can’t hurt to give it a few more tries.
On second thought, I just got 51K with the straight ahead and really slow approach, and I am not sure there is enough stuff left over to smash to go any higher than 54k. Nice shooting angrychicken and fettesau!
Sorry AC, I beat it, LOL. I’ve been playing Laurence’s 2nd strategy for about 45 minutes. 54,560 I couldn’t believe it at first either.
Laurence, thank you so much, I used the second method!! How did you figure this out? You are the greatest! :)
Haha, thanks for the compliment, although I’m not sure I’m entirely worthy of that title! Regarding finding this method, I guess it followed on from getting the first method. I found that one out because I realized if you could get the bird to stay on screen after collision, you can get bonus points for blocks colliding with it (which is the same for a few levels in Space). After that I tried this with a couple of the other asteroids, and actually the ‘pushing’ the block into the pig was more of an accident. I initially thought I’d hit it too slow, and then saw all the asteroids exploding everywhere, and realized there could be a highscore hidden there somewhere!
I think I’ve got some work to do now – I’m a good 6k behind now! Oh well, at least I can console myself knowing that my method CAN lead to top scores, even if I can’t get them! :)
Laurence, like I said to you a few months ago, around exam time, if your scores for class are anything like your scores here, you must be amazing!!!!! :)
Haha, thanks sunshine! My physics results were good, although I had a couple of shaky maths! I got another chance in a couple of months though! :D
So, this is good practice!!!!! ;) Good luck in advance, I KNOW you will do well!! Cheers!!! Laurence.
Yes good luck laurence:) I am sure you will do great!!! :)
Thanks guys :)
Your first priority must be studying and getting good grades! It appears that the only thing standing in your way is AB. Please make sure you study enough and do all your homework. Best of luck for improving your grades! Slim won’t approve of “shaky maths” and neither will I.
Laure.nce tyfor all your help…sounds like you better lsten to mvnla..I also agree with what AA said above you are very very smart, you always have an ” out of the box” something to try and 9 times out of 10 it works. I am sure you will go far so keep up with your studies..you certainly don’t want slim mad at you lol..:) gl with all you do:)
Thanks guys – Turns out I still managed an A in maths, but that’s not good enough for my teacher! I expect when it gets a bit nearer to exams, I’ll take a break from AB from a bit to focus on studies! Just glas space come out in March and not May! :D
Laurence, I have tried the changing speed theory on other levels, and it appears to be extremely helpful, so another BIG thank you!!!!!! And listen to your peers, study!!! :D lol. Have a great day playing AB!
Many thanks Laurence! I kept on getting that 47,340 before I checked the thread and was surprised to see so many other people with the same score. It’s good to have a solid strat to work on now.
Thanks for the tip. I tried your second method and got 54070 on the first try.
48,870 on iOS device, using Laurence’s second slow method.
Laurence, you are a great player! You have once again showed extraordinary creativity in the game!
Btw, I found that hitting the top part (in contrast to middle or lower part) of the icy asteroid generally gives you higher mark.
Thanks, HKG, you’re not bad yourself, lol! 5th place on Rio? – that’s impressive! :)
Took lots of tries with slow straight bird, with scores from 35 – 47k but finally got above the dreaded 47340. Was weird to see that I was so low so thanks to Laurence and this thread to help make sense of what is going on
For those new to Cold Cuts, or those coming back to 2-1 looking to better their score, Laurence’s #2 above(See E-Star’s video) is the way to get the higher scores.
The most important part is the ice marbles have got to be either destroyed completely, or broken up into small marbles. If there is even one middle sized left, 47340 to mid48K is all you’ will get.
I got my score from the dreadful 47340 up to 51540 in maybe 5 tries.
That’s interesting to know, thanks Liam…I’m stuck in the mid 48k’s, but happy to have improved my score a bit. I think if I can reach out into space and knock that angry red bird out of the way, all those ice blocks would be history! He keeps blocking at least one of my explosions, grrrr :=)
Strategy #2 above seems to be working best for me too, getting a slightly higher score.
@aleksch
@catsnbirds
The three of us are tied for 1st place! Has that ever happened before? LOL
@fidslady I’m surprised that there aren’t more than three of us! It was a shock to see so much destruction with Laurence’s strategy, but it’s been over a month since you and I posted those scores. Thought a few more people would have had the L-factor kick in!
Not many people made it up to 54k! Only eleven of us. Well just have to wait and see what happens!
Well I’ve been barely able to scrape 50k with my own strategy, lol! I could really do with the L-factor myself! :)
Thanks @Laurence – gave this a try (the second method you outline) and jumped from 47K to 51K.
Thanks @Laurence the second method give me 52360 , thks a lot from Italy ……
Well now there’s four of us at #1! Add @lesleyg to our list! And from the discussion we might have more soon!
Now there are 5 of us tied for first place, this has got to be some kind of record! We also have two people tied for second place, @Kathy and @jeffer713 They’re only 10 points behind!
First place list:
@Burbman
@Aleksch

Hey Guys…Here’s my strat which @laurence gets credit for the “slowed” power in the first place but the trajetory to get top score is line up red bird to come in just slightly higher then center on the big left boulder and have the dots stop just at the boulder or one dot shy of boulder. This causes bubble to pop but more importantly the boulder then coast down to hit bottom big boulder and BLAST!!! Asteroids everywhere including asteroid debris smashing into the very far top right brown asteroid nearly off the screen for a few extra points ;-) GL!!!
@lesleyg, you and @Laurence both deserve a big “thank you”. Great work and thanks for sharing.
@lesleyg – thanks for this, and of course thanks to @laurence for the original strat. I’m getting lots of results in the 40K range and have a high (from a few weeks ago) of 51K.
I’m wondering if you’ve noticed if the rotation of the ice-teroid has any bearing on the results? I’ve seen it rotate clockwise and counter clockwise and sometimes it’s still, but I personally haven’t noticed different results based on it’s behavior – wondering if you all have?
You’re welcome @wanda and @playbird!!! i will try some more after I finish my chores..a few hours from now and check the ice-steriod theory out and post my results.
Ty @lesleyg AA. great strat. as usual :) !! i improved 4k within 10 minutes of trying) I think it does matter. which way if at all it is rotating ..going to try more.:)
Woo hoo 54090…getting there!;)
I have managed to get high score of 54560 literally about 15 times so I’m thinking it’s the highest it will go…pretty muc like when everyone was getting stuck on 47340. I was not able to get it when ice-steroid was not moving. I did get it both clockwise and counter-clockwise and on the flat service of the ice-steroid. If you look at it like a mushroom…the best results came at the top part of the “mushroom”, or again if we refer to it as mushroom shaped…there is kind of three flat sides to the top and I did get it on the left flat side as well as the top flat side and seemed to be more often when going clockwise. I hope this helps ;-)
I agree I couldn’t. get anywhere when it wasn’t moving..also only when I hit on flat side..just gotta get my speed right..my finger gets in the way..
@lesleyg also noticed @fislady took first place! congrats:)
I can’t break 53K, despite all the helpful suggestions…I guess someone has to populate the rest of the leaderboard ;-)
@lesleyg – thanks a lot for the detailed description of this strategy. I followed it and finally got 54560 as well. Looks like I am the 6th person to get this number.
52260/1
that´s it @lesleyg many thx
here my video:
https://youtu.be/dnw_adjoHzQ
@lesleyg You say “top right BROWN asteroid”. Is your’s really brown? All mine are ice. So far highest I’ve gotten in 49540.
@mvnla2 – she is referring to the small planetoid at the very upper right hand corner of some screens zoomed all the way out, not one of the six iceteroids surrounding the pig.
@lesleyg wow you sure have kept everyone busy today lol noone at the pig much in the last few hours..this strat is very challenging made a level that seemed impossible. to improve. on. worth playing again. :)
@rdnzlrips82 great choice:)
has anyone noticed the spin of the big boulder we are aiming at and the bottom one are synchronized ..several times when I hit it off aim the left one spinns perfectly through the space below and those 2 boulders spin together as a gear..
@burbman..yes thank you..I called it the wrong thing…I just meant some of the ice debris knocks into it. Not a deal breaker.
@kathy WTG on score..and that’s very observant of you with the rotating asteroids…I hadn’t noticed that!
@lesleyg
Sorry to bother you years after you posted this beautiful strat, but despite many attempts, I have not been able to reach you magical 54,560 score. The reason I think is that the way you define the sdlow power is platform dependent. When I do it on my iPhone (I mean, “dots stop just at the boulder or one dot shy of boulder”), the ice-roid breaks when hitting the bubble. The same occurs on my PC version. Could you compare the length of the dotted line you use here wrt maximum power, for example?
@sglouk – It’s no problem…let me check it out and get back to you shortly ;-)))
@sglouk – Well I think you mean how far will my trajectory lines go out if I stretched it out at full power, so you can try and get some comparison…if that’s the case…when I pull back at full power, and aim through the left big boulder…they stop say about one shy of the left side of the far right big middle boulder.
BTW…I play on iPad…but I used to play on an Android phone and I can’t remember which was used here but I’m almost positive it was my iPad. I did look to see what platform the other 6 Top Score users play on and there’s 6 of us using on iPad and one uses iPhone.
It’s definitely a finicky and tricky shot…Good Luck and I hope this helps some ;-)
@lesleyg
Thank you for your reply. What you says corresponds to what I have on both PC and iPhone, however, when I try to use your strat here, by having “dots stop just at the boulder or one dot shy of [left] boulder” as you say, then it seems that the ice-roid bursts all the time when it hits the bubble.
So, my question is: do you remember that this shot had very low chances to succeed because of the bursting ice-roid, or do you remember that the power you used was sufficiently low so as not to burst the ice-roid against the bubble, the outcome after hitting the bottom rock being in all cases, variable? Also, do you remember at which frequency you could get your mark? Since you got it 15 times, I presume it is not a super rare occurrence. It may happen that the physics of the level has changed and that the ice-roid breaks much more often than before, which could explain why I can’t get it now.
In any case, many thanks for all the strats you posted here and there. I sometimes felt somehow ashamed to get above your score by using your strat, but at least for the present level, your score stands the test of time.
@sglouk I see what you mean! I gave it several flings and even with slowed power…the ice-roid keeps bursting after it hits the bubble …but one of the pieces seems to always hit the bottom boulder…but I haven’t got the 54K score.
This is what is also happening for you it seems…I honestly can’t remember the details as it was so long ago…it’s either the physics have changed as you say…or it may be one of those cases where I get super tuned in on a level and play for way tooooo long with a bit of OCD going on and may have got it “15 times” at the time because I had “dialed in” on the shot? I mean it’s possible because even with everyone trying for it back then…only 7 of us got it to go just right? I don’t have the time to put into right now to know for sure. I did retry about 20 times or more just now and the boulder keeps breaking. Based off my original post, it’s sounds like I was saying that after it hit the bubble, it “coasted down” without bursting so I don’t know? If anything changes, I’ll let you know.
Also thanks for your kind words ;-) I’m glad I have been able to help you along the way! Never feel ashamed to beat my score(unless of course you are sending the Sheriff my way, hahaha). Quite the opposite..it feels good to know I helped achieve it! Good Luck ;-)))
@lesleyg
The shot you described two years ago is still possible but with much reduced power (as Laurence said at that time), which allows the ice-roid to survives the collision with the bubble. The outcome is partially random (ice-roid explosions are not so random, but the way Red bounces on debris is, I would say), and thus many score occur quite often, such as 49080, which is by far the most common score I got (keeping only those above 47k). The highest repeatable score I got dozens of times was 51120. Therefore I am not surprised that you could get your 54560 fifteen times by doing exactly the same shot, however, I still don’t know which it was or if it is still repeatable today. All I can say is that I have begun to do some tests on some old Android version (pre-Utopia), and it seems that the ice-roid bursts always with the power you talked about.
A last question: earlier, you had talked about a “far top right brown asteroid nearly off the screen”. Does it still exist? I do not see it on my iPhone, nor my Android device. If not, this may also explain why I can get above 52k today.
@sglouk – No I Don’t see it anymore either? This episode was one of the first released so I don’t know if it was a “point gathering asteroid” or one of those background features. I mean we were new to the Space episode at the time…and maybe I thought back then, that background asteroids could obtain points? No one else mentioned it so it’s hard to say. At any rate your current score is pretty respectable ;-) Let me know though if you do end up getting it…which seems to be now with even less power than when I played. GL
@lesleyg
No new score for me, but I finally got an old PC version (v1.2.0) and yes, there is a small planet in the upper right corner as you said. So the design of the level has changed, although marginally (but this old version probably helped to scratch a few more points when debris hit this small planet). I will now investigate to see if I can reproduce your score with this version. I am optimistic, since old level 2-10 already allowed me to get a much higher score thanks to design change.
@lesleyg
Got 52830 three times in a row, so I am begining to understand what happens. I am quite confident that I can join/get close to your 54,560 club and will leave a detailed description of what in going on when I am done.
Thanks for the feedback @sglouk ;-) I’m glad to know I wasn’t imaging the planet, lol ;-) Now that you found the older version, I hope you get the score you want! It’s very frustrating when you’re so close!!! GL
Thanks to @lesleyg @comex666 @laurence @sglouk for all the tips and strategies. A challenging level for a good score.
@lesleyg @Everyone ..rs
rdnzlrips82. having BABY ..on way to hospital!!!
Fingers crossed and prayers in my heart!
All,
I rarely comment here. With my biggest comments being about the dreaded Seasons Greedings 1-16 Mighty Eagle nightmare.
Maybe I should come here more often for these tips. I have never, ever looked. Figuring That if I can’t figure it out, then I’ve done the best I can. To date, I any score I have, is because I worked on it. And my scores, while beating the average for all that I’ve posted in all these games, is far from any leader board scores. Maybe I’ve had one or two.
But this 2-1 level? I was so shocked to be stuck at the dreaded 47340 score. I have never seen anything so predictable and unalterable.
So, I turned here to the forums. And there was the answer.
I had never ever considered to use less power. Ever. Maybe on getting some Golden Eggs.
A big THANK YOU to all. Lawrence, and the very specific instructions by Angry Advisor. I really appreciate it.
I’ll never be a top player. But for some reason beating the average makes a difference to me.
Thanks very much.
I got the same points: 47,340
@lesleyg
I am busy with other levels that can give much higher scores with old versions (DZ-4 0 birder, E-4 (top score!), 2-10). But I don’t forget I also have to settle an account with this one.
Thanks @Laurence and @estar for the alternate strat. I was stuck in the 47,340 club, too until I read through here. After figuring out the slowest speed needed to bump into the smaller iceteroid, finally got 49,170. I made a video, but it’s the same as yours, lol.
