Soft Launch

Smash Hit 's Soft Launch (Version 1.0.0 for iOS) was released before the actual release of the game itself. It was available in Australia or New Zealand, according to Dennis himself.

Differences from later versions

 * The "New Best Distance" and Distance menus have no 'continue from ? checkpoint ' option. This is only corrected after Version 1.0.0's release.
 * There is a capital G in the 'get premium' button.
 * Instead of banners, there are little messages that appear in the middle of the screen, and not on the bottom.
 * Every time the player reaches an upgraded multiball status, they will get a message saying [10/20/30/40] ∆ streak, with 1-5 multi-ball status respectively. In earlier versions (0.8.0 and 0.9.0), it also shows this message. In versions after the Soft Launch, this only happens the first time you get it in that particular playthrough, and only when your multiplier status is multiplied to double balls.
