Description
Unleash hell with tons of epic upgrades in this "colorblind friendly" top-down shooter with plenty of challenge.
Reviewed on "Guidology":http://guidology.com/2011/02/26/reactance-kongregate-helpers-official-review/
How to Play
Mouse/Arrow keys/WASD - Move the ship.
Click/Space - Fire weapon.
Z - Toggle autofire.
Shift (hold) - Move at half speed. More precise maneuvering.
Esc - Pause.
A gray star on a level means you beat the level. A white star means you beat it without taking damage (doing so will give you double the points you earned on that level).
Developer Updates
v 1.9 โ You can now double click a level to start it (I probably shouldโve had it like that from the beginning). The music starts correctly for people who havenโt played before.
v 1.8.3 โ The game now saves the mute state. If you muted it, itโll load muted.
v 1.8.2 โ Re-added quality controls in the right-click menu. (I inadvertently removed them in the last update.)
v 1.8.1 โ Added a Restart Level button to the pause menu. Since so many people were asking where to find it, you can now click on the song/artist in the credits page.
v 1.8 โ Doubled the amount of points you earn. Added a Return to Menu button to the pause screen. Improved performance. Made the difficulty curve more consistent. Added a preloader. The song is now in stereo instead of mono, as well as a higher bitrate. A few minor interface fixes.
v 1.7 โ Lowered the opacity of the playerโs bullets and particles. This should make it easier to make sense of all the chaos. You now get a 100% point bonus for taking no damage in a level. So if youโre good, you wonโt have to grind as much.
v 1.6 โ Achievement notifications added.
v 1.5 โ Defensive lasers wonโt shoot at projectiles moving away from you anymore.
v 1.3 โ Due to popular complaint, Iโve changed the ship movement to a more traditional style. Hope youโre happy.

To beat final boss; use Pulse (fully upgraded, ofcourse.). It will cause the most damage. Each attack has a specific way to dodge and survive.
-Small blasts in V's; then large: Stay close to the boss where the "tips" are, and the V formation should pass right by you, then move to the left a little and the large blasts will miss you.
-Missles: This one takes some manuevering. If you start on either side and either slip past the rockets by going to the bottom of the screen and sliding across, or just below where the rockets appear and sliding across. Just make sure you clump up the missles.
-Pulse Attack: It's easy, all the attacks only come from the "tips" of the boss. Just stay where there is no "thorn".
- Criss-Cross Pattern: This, in my opinion, is the most difficult. Just go to the bottom right hand corner of the screen and there should be a few spaces that are large enough to fit into. Be warned, as his health decreases the bullets grow larger.
