The "Hard" badge isn't hard once you have the max plane upgrade, full throw, full fuel reduction, and lightness... You can throw straight up, immediately hold left and space bar, and you will go basically vertical. Stop at about 1 fuel bar left and use your emergency stall. You'll be at like 1400m of altitude going basically flat, use your left over bar to steer. You should get enough money to get all of the rest of the upgrades you don't have... Yes, in one run. have fun :)
Lame... Give me upgrades! Give me an insentive to finish! And after like the 5th time i crashed i was tired of waiting for the "Again" to come up... Let me just skip the damn crash scenes!!
Fun for the first like 15 elements. Then it gets just boring. Theres no reason to continue. No goal. I mean theres no town building in the background. You cant do anything with the elements except make different elements. And its just constant mindless clicking. 1/5...
The octupus is really easy if you know what you're doing. The more guys that are send from crystals and towers, the better. The less normal guys, the better chance you have. Yet you want a strong flow of guys. So i filled my towers first, then i filled my crystals. (by the time i sent my first wave i had about 20 over on each crystal). If they all attack one leg you can take it out pretty fast. After that have the bottom half of the screen attack one leg, and the top half attack another.
It goes pretty quick. And it helps if you go and reset your skills so you have full attack, def, agility, speed.
On level 13 i dropped the cat in on the left side and i got a full belly off 1 drop. I was excited at first, but then after i sat there watching my, now gigantic, cat bounce around for 10 minutes. He finally made it in. (15,500 on one drop :P)
