protip for saving money: when it comes to upgrading your mower, you spend less money by pressing 'I want my money back' then buying the next level than by upgrading them bit by bit.
the reason is that the cost of each new upgrade is taken according to the full value: i.e. when you buy lvl 1 throttle then lvl 2 throttle, you pay the $80 for lvl 1 then the $160 for lvl 2. But when you press 'I want my money back', you only get back the amount for that level of upgrade: i.e. you only get back $160, while you paid $240.
+ so we'll stop getting scammed by the hardware store!
how to break the game:
make a new weapon, design it however you want, max homing level and fire rate, minimise everything else. It'll still cost $1000.
