Ahh yes, It is extremely tragic. The cause of this is how he was created. The scientists who made him had hopes to create a super killing machine to be used to their cause. But it went horribly wrong. They combined the wrong parts of the two creatures. Sharkman, though he resembles a shark, has all the internal organs of man (which explains why he can survive on land) but none from a shark. So that when he hits the water, the extra weight from his organs cause him to sink to the bottom and unfortunately his fins cannot support the extra weight so he cant swim either. The scientists disgraced him and abandoned him. It is truly a sad reality.
Tips for Impossible Badge 2:
The second Cheat/Handicap-Mix is placed around the Pacifist Handicap.
In addition to "Pacifist Mode" select "No Death Bombs" and all the Attack-Handicaps, as this increases the score modifier, without making the game any harder. Then select the "Extra Heart" Cheats and let enemys drop hearts and also decrease Bullet Speed to the min. With a resulting score modifier of x0.66, you still get a 1-Star-Rating on most levels.
Combine with Lance(Titanium Wings) or Anna(Banana) to get a good chance to survive a boss fight. I recommend to try this tactic at least for the last 4 bosses.
Tips for Impossible Badge 1:
There are two constellations of Cheats/Handicaps/Player Settings, that make the "Heavenly" difficulty much easier. In any case I recommend to play with the mouse and in high-contrast mode, because you can dodge much more accurately.
For the first Set of Cheats/Handicaps select the "Auto Bombs" and both "Extra Bomb" Cheats and let foes drop bombs, swords and shields(you can take stars, too, but in my opinion they are pretty useless).
Tick "More Items", too, since the droprate is a bit poor.
To compensate the score modifier, select the "One Heart" Handicap and put the bullet speed to a max (this actually doesn't make the game much harder). If you play with NoLegs(Pink Pillow/Star Shower or Torpedo)
or Natalie(Green wings/Raging Firestorm) you've got a great combination for the standard levels.
If you want to use this set against bosses, Lance(Copper Wings/Plasma Beam) will be a better choice, since he deals much more damage.
If you have pancakes and french toast ready for building you don't have
to take the one from the top of stack. This means you can just make some pancakes and some french toasts and then give every customer what he wants instead of making only the right amount for everyone.
Just be careful that you always have enough of each ready. Pancakes also cook a bit faster so I recommend putting 4 pancakes on the grill and then 4 pieces of toast.
