I love the combos in this game. Although the silliest one must be predator+excalibur. Go to the bottom right corner and afk. With Ares and carapace, you can even clear the game while not watching.

Archer, Behemoth, Locusts, Raven. That's my first load-out that got me to the end. Really have to watch those bullets flying when my ship handles like a bathtub, but the extra HP are worth it.

Well, very fun game. I'd say it's a bit easy, managed to beat it on the first try. Still, very entertaining game, congratz Nerdook!

(p.s:not kongregate achivements. but if u have a script for the achivements on kongregate allows the player get the final equipments, okay, well if u don't. just do the achivements in-game)

I would suggest achivements, as collecting all the achivements unlock the final set of core, body, weapon and wing. Credits to levatron for the idea of higher level upgrades. yea, i liked this content and accpeted well the idea. but i felt that a "total completion" is needed. like achivements, and when u get all the achivements u get something supreme.

I won with Mjolnir, Predator, Excalibur and Rhino. Nerdook has the ability to make any genre awesome, even to outsiders to it, but this is far from the difficulty of a conventional bullet hell. I was just testing out Excalibur + Rhino, because it seemed cool and had orbital strike because it was the best of the four I had.
A strategy to easily win is use predator, focus on dodging rather than shooting and shoot only occasionally. Phoenix is decent, as it allows you to focus on dodging and shoot a homing missile occasionally, and Carapace helps too, with dodging.
Quite honestly, you could win this with Predator + other three in defaults.

My Personal Build for those who like dishing out major damage and keeping the field MOSTLY clear: Painbringer Mk V: Ragnarok (Core) Frenzy (Body) Volcanis (Weapon) Mercury (Wing): Note: While its True that this DOES give GREAT firepower take Into Consideration that if your shields go your going to get a game over due to this combo gives 1 life ONLY so be sure to stop firing to regain shields Again this set is just for Pure Power im not saying you HAVE to use it im just saying that you might want to consider it i made it up to the 5th boss before losing with this if this combo helps you in someway or if you like the General Idea feel free to thumbs up Otherwise use your own combos: have fun.

Here's my desgins, been working on them for awhile
#1: M-50 Paladin: Mjonir, Omega, Excalibur, Rhino. Omega makes you extremly tough if you don't regen, Excalibur makes ramming easy, Rhino makes ramming easier, and Mjonnir's splash kills the other half of the map you aren't rampaging through.
M-53 "Atlas"
Archer, Behemoth Phoenix Mercury
For an all but unnoticable drop in speed, you're tougher AND hit faster than the norm. As unstoppable as Unstoppable gets.

1 of the tags says bullet hell. Does that mean theres bullets every where? Or does it mean its the bullets idea of hell? Where nobody uses guns?

*comes on kong for 10 mins* 'Nerdook Game on Beta,Hmmm guess it wouldnt hurt to try the first level' *2 hours later* 'Not Done yet must continue to play'

Yeah, upgrades just aren't that useful. Plus, you get them all so quickly, the game just doesn't have much of an upgrades feel to it.

Interesting combinations are possible. I personally beat the game with two glass builds:
1. [Protocol EMIYA] Archer, Omega, Excalibur, Mercury
Note: While Rhino and Excalibur seem like the ideal duo, in reality, without the movement bonus of Mercury it proved difficult to secure melee kills in faster waves. Plus, without a ranged buff dealing with bosses and BladeMech waves proved difficult.
2. [Protocol MetalStorm] Mjolnir, Dual Rippers, Locusts, Mercury
Note: This build is incredibly fragile, but you become a white flamethrower of death- as long as you are holding down X, the screen is being filled with your weapons fire. Anything not a boss will get instagibbed by this sort of bullet storm.

Are the unlocks random because ive unlocked almsot all the weapons and half of the body and core upgrades and have yet to unlock a single wing, i think having random unlocks would be alright but also ramdomising which type of unlock you get can elad to this problem.
As it stands the only thing i want to unlock is movement control options and kinda bumbed i still havent got anything that does that.

I love my engineers. Did anyone else see the new moves they've been trying out? I think they called it the "Webble Wobble" or something. They do it in their freetime which appears to be when i'm in the station...

I disagree with levatron. I think the sentinel is practically useless, and my favorite weapon/wing combo is dual rippers+mercenary.

It took me an embarrassing amount of time to realize that shield radius indicates how much punishment it can take. Aside from that, another great game. :)

Nerdook, do you make the music, get it from somewhere or hire specialists? Because I have to say, the music is the thing that just "fills" this game! I'd like a soundtrack name, If you can!
