Still , some boss can destroy Cabin , Grabber , and Fuel Tank with single shot , and shield can't help. Call all support just before start boss battle and keep distance as much as possible.
Replace the outermost gun of the 1st front Protoshield can be usefull, for some sticky attacker, if can buy Protoshield. (Bought only one so far, one to go)
Suggestion for improve : Endorse coyotik's suggestions for start. Plus, there should be saving Homemade gun setting too. Both ship layout and Homemade saving should have multiple saving slots and can be share with online.
Anything within shield range should not be damaged untill the shield is destroyed (if it is not available due to the balance, give XX% damaged reduction for remaining XX% HP of shield)

Game is balanced until you get access to support&nukes. they are cheap and clear bosses in less then 2seconds. I'm at danger level 30 and didn't need to buy a single thing for 10levels except a fuel upgrade.

I just keep on selling the weapons that I don't have space for.
Momentsy later I realize that I needed those weapons.

It's a bit sad that the boss usually crushes your collectors and you lose what you collected, no matter how fast you beat the boss. The following magnet doesn't have capacity to collect all you lost.

Please add a quick-sell button in shop, dragging each single turret gets tedious when you unlock a new upgrade and you need to sell 10+ turrets.

I don't mind grinding, please put gems on worlds we replay but haven't killed the boss yet. Later levels, and boss kills, don't give enough gems.

Okay PRO TIP: Until shields get a major buff, don't put points into them - atm it's better to focus offensive power to kill off the bosses quickly before they can destroy your ship.

I misse on of the scientist because he fly far away on the upper left of the screen at the boss. So, he can't be reached by the magnet or anything else ...

I always pick the upgrades i don't want ... I select the upgrade on the left and click the button on the right ... Please could you replace the two button system by an unique button ? :'(

How do i add the H boxes to my ships? I've picked up two, but they don't appear in my inventory and my ship is still the same size.

Hint: place your pilots cabin at the bottom left/right corner and stay at the bottom of the map for them evil bosses.
Also, you don't really need the bomb: even 2 support calls are overkill for most of the bosses
at danger 68 now, should mean it's half way through and upgrades are almost done, no more engineers appear so not much to gain but to wait for the absurd costs of last lvl weapons to fill up.
gg!

So apparently the support modules lvl 2 can break your game requiring a reload and the saving system is so buggy that you may or may not have a save after reloading, usually you won't from my experience. I really wanted to like this game but it's repetitive nature and some horrific bugs just ruin it.

This game needs a few user-friendly things:
1) saving ship layouts (at least 2) (to toggle between max cargo and boss fighting setup)
2) auto-upgrade equipment. When I have 6 laser guns and I choose the next laser upgrade, the game should offer one-click option to replace all mounted lasers with better version. Having to buy them manually and replace is just tedious....

Being able to purchase tech advancements with money would be a way to prevent getting stuck without a way to advance.

The Laser Eyes on Archyerinick boss (Danger 7) are OP. The Danger 8 and Danger 9 bosses are easier by comparison. Building shields won't block the beams from hitting your other modules very well.

The Bosses that shoot glaives through your ship are just bullshit, 2 shotting my components. shields dont do jack and i have to choose between grinding money or trying the boss and risk losing half of what i earned this level. Thats bad design in my book. Im roadblocked by 2 planets that have that boss and could maybe proceed if i grind out something like 200+ currency at a rate of about 7 per clear. Doesnt sound like fun to me

I used 1 lvl 2 nuke and 4 lvl 3 backup powerups at a time on a boss and it crashed the game like the screen is in the middle of nowhere with stars a planet and some background nest parts. Sound slowly stops and cant click anything xD wtf to much power

Also, maybe allow to go to ANY level. I am sure I could overlook quite a few level (but not too many) because of my upgrades. No need to force us to do each one.

Pros - production top notch - addicting
Cons - not really a challenge, or if there was a challenge...it would entail ultra grinding. Also, as everything else on Kongregate....ACHIEVEMENTS!

Really sucks that you lose the upgrade if you die at the same time as the boss, especially since there's no way to get that upgrade back.
