addition: another easy badge is the "Academic" badge, awarded for 10 minutes in training mode. just pick nothing but the yellow sticky guys and you shouldnt have any problem camping in there for hours :D
some very easy awards for you:
Pacifist: Dont swing for 30 seconds. got it while trying to outrun a horror
Picky: Spin through a lot of soundtracks pressing the "N" button multiple times after game start
voila, 2 free awards for doing almost nothing.
lol ive just played for over 5 hours to get the ultimate ships unlocked and genu still eats me within 20 seconds???? o.O some serious balancing problems huh? now what, i need to save another 50 million gold to upgrade all equipment slots and buy all epic stuffs? BAH.
i love it how i die when i am close to completing a giant nest. best ive ever reached is 139 remaining glooples. at latest at that point a torchie enters the game and blows up because of a biter, a grinder, a spiky, a fuzzle or any of the other offensive glooples and the explosion makes me die without ANY chance of defending myself. it is as if there would be gravity eaters entering the playing field at random. well that would at least provide a better score.
**** the torchies!
the gloople that actually kills me the most is the simple green one. whenever i try dodging something near the edge of the map, a green guy comes in, bumps me and i get pwned by whatever i was trying to lure out of the map :(
lawl an amalgam and 2 torchies came in the same time. the amalgam ate the torchies and burned out, but dodging them a got bumped by a green gloople and had a grinder roll over me :( i still had reactive armor and lots of evasive armor and only 200 left and then this happens. i never ever get killed by grinders otherwise :(
everyone who solves level 14 with less then 100 deaths is either sheer lucky or a geek. seriously, there is nothing more hatefull then agility objectives of the type "Hit 5 buttons in the timeframe of less then half a second or you must wait 10 seconds to try again)
just for that crap one i would like to give the game a -1337/5 but i will still give 5/5 as its setting and music are good. just, save such stupid objectives as described above, only provokes frustration and "being stuck at the same hurdle for half an hour" should not be seen as well constructed gameplay time.
how can you possibly survive 2 frosties entering the screen at the same time? no matter if you bat at them or not, the first one freezes you, the 2nd kills you.
GOD DAMNED!!! ive tried episode 1 on frantic a THOUSAND times and still didnt make it. after really at least hundred tries i made it to the final boss just to be killed by it. how do you survive against a screen filled 100% with ring-shaped FULL rings of bullets? they are undodgeable!!
15 deaths to create a void eater in a small nest and then i failed to kill it :(
but i got a horror on accident in a huge nest and had a lucky shot, now im one awards richer :D
wtf i jus struck a spiky... and then it collided into a normal green glopple, turned around 180 degrees and spiked me down. since when do green glooples bump back spikys that have their spikes out? i was only 73 glooples away from huge nest finish -.-
i dont know how many times ive tried to fight a huge nest just to be bombed by a torchie in the last 200 -___-
hey guys: heres how to take out a grinder (the big grey stone balls). Let them roll through acid or throw something explosive on them (preferably grenade) or let 2 of the collide and then when there are orange cracks in their shell give them 5 slashes :)
one thing you need to patch about this game: if you get stuck under clutterbabies near the edge of the map its impossible for you to shake them off and you can only wait for your death. i just defended my stand for about 15 seconds before being eaten by a biter from offscreen. i got there by being hit by a blackie and then randomly walking to the edge of the map under fire of 2 clutters (with black screen)
