Easiest way to beat the game: load up your vehicles with energy armor. With 3 vehicles the reload speed is fast enough that you can use them one after another (even without being upgraded) and by the time the third one is used up, the first is ready to go again. Also, the zappy thing that takes away your charge can't hit you while the energy armor is active. Because you get paid per distance, you can just keep activating the armor over and over and grind up money, even if your weapons can't take out all the enemies on screen.
i love the premise of a multiplayer flash game where the players cooperate to reach their goals. it reminds me of Co&Co on the C64 from way back.
the only things that annoy me is that it doesn't save my progress, and that the game is so laggy. if some extra detail was turned off, besides just turning it to low res mode, it would be much more playable and less laggy on older machines.
fun game, really needs a pause button tho, especially if there's Speed Run badges. getting called away from the computer sucks when you're trying a speed run.
the thing-thing games, while loving the character customisation, never really hit it off with me, although this one does feel more enjoyable than the others.
Thanks for the heads up!
