This game is heavily inspired by Lufia II: Rise of the Sinistrals. E.g. the variety of slimes, the samurai enemy and the capsule-monster-like feeding is straight from that game. To be fair, the copied parts are the good ones and it feels good to play. :)
Issues with how receptions and elevators work in end game. The clients appear in clusters, which causes them to complain about elevators and receptions even though the average waiting time was not bad. The problem is that the few waiters cause big drops in reputation and it takes time to build it back up.
It took me 67 minutes to beat. The trick with the coral is: field one type at the time. For example, if you have a flock of over 9000 (!) blue planton and one red one, the blue coral will just flash red to them and waste your blue plankton, yes: just for that one red one. Even fielding one blue one at at a time and feeding it to the blue coral gets you done faster than big flocks with at least one wrong planton. Another trick with the big flock is to let go near the target coral and feed it the correct plankton, even one-by-one is good. Follow the color codes of the game like a N**i or it will grief you to death and mess up your mental health, your wrist and your will to live. This suicide hotline was brought to you by the depression drug Prozac - "Kaleidoscope Reef for your depressive future!"
Yes, the badge is completely FUBAR because someone changed the game. Yes, it needs to be night to use the gargoyle wings to go over the sand. Why? Because of Dark Souls Remastered Edition. Why else?
All badges: you need to complete the game. 1. Save up to frag grenades -- that is the only weapon that scales up with the upgrades. 3. Get the extra slots 4. Save up to the best ship -- that coin magnet thing is really useful. Keep putting points into frag upgrades. To beat the annoying end boss casually, stay at high health before it and then park your ship in center-down position and go drink some coffee or do sth else until it dies. The pellets do 5 damage (~practically nothing) and only they can by chance hit you in that bottom-center position. Let that boss eat some frags for like 15 min straight until it dies. I had my frags at lvl 9 damage and speed.
