Over all I would say this is a great game for 3 weeks. As others have said a little more difference between the stages of growth would be nice, maybe some punishment for getting killed. The two biggest things that I feel would help are one: an on screen counter of XP and spriteings collected and two: A guide showing which enemy is which. Anything above trinity I have no idea what I'm collecting.
just use the things in the order you get them. Launch, use all 3 engines as fast as you can, then all 3 bouncers, then all 3 freakys. with gun powder, coffee, and creativity max you easily get 3500.
I love how there are different things missing each time. Great for re-play. Its not a glitch guys. I have played a couple times and there are always five things, just not always the same.
Yeah it's a known issue :( We've got it fixed in the latest version, and we'll get an update here before too long!
