I think the main thing is to be stubborn and kep trying. it took me like 4 hours (I had 0.0.3 *grr* after about 3.5 hours) to finally get 0.0.0, but actually once oyu've done it once, you can do a repeat performance fairly easily, so I think it's just a matter of finding out where the balloons are, where the birds like to come from and learning how to control the chocobo in a more efficient manner (don't overstear!)
Good luck!
