Easy badge is easy - Marvaddin's advice works for STORY MISSIONS ONLY for hard badge. For easy badge, mine as much as fast as possible - enemies come on a timer.

Either I'm doing something wrong, or the "Fifteen-Minute Firestorm" badge is pretty hard for a Medium. Excellent game though.

I used to play this game over and over and over again, working my way through all of the challenges and difficulty levels. It's THAT good of a game. I'm glad to see it finally get some medals to reflect it's awesomeness :D

No need to hurry. 3) Mission 7+, attacks come in order: fighters, missile, exploders, ringers, swarmers, motherships. Have missile launchers ready for swarmers and MSs. 4) When attacked by MSs have some relay in front of your base, to make them stop whil

I'm getting a "[10] Setup has failed: Loader bypassed" error. The game is stuck on white screen with the loading bar at the bottom. Anybody knows what the issue is?

Mission 6 is easy with the following strategy:
Build 9 solar stations (so that you have 10).
Build 18 missile launchers and upgrade them one tier. I think the motherships always come from the right, so concentrate your missile launchers there.
You should have 1800 minerals left for your missile ammo, but you'll likely only use a thousand or so depending on how much the enemies bunch up.
That's it. Click fast forward and watch the explosions.

Thank you for finally giving this game badges. It is easily one of the best games on the site and has been long underappreciated.

33 minutes on medium badge! This was really fun to play again, thanks for the badges :)
If anyone wants my strategy, its basically "great wall of china". I surround everything (ALL the asteroids) after I get my energy base set up, and use a wall of basic lasers (occasionally upgrade some to THEL for motherships) and relocate them for new attacks. They don't make you lose money for basic laser recycling.
After 15 minutes, I basically had a great wall of basic lasers covering all the important places, which stops everything except motherships and swarmers are troublesome.
AFTER you mine the whole map, sell everything and set up a base with 5-6 full upgraded THELs, a decent amount of pulsers and all the other jazz.
5/5 worked 2 hours for 30 ingame minutes.

And of course the computer I used to beat this game years ago is gone. Doh! At least It'll be fun to play though again to earn the badges.

Pro tips for hard badge: 1) You can recycle unupgraded full HP buildings for full price. Defend using unupgraded laser / launchers, and use repair stations. 2) Mining missions, enemies come according to your %. You can mine some asteroids (small area, easy to defend), and recycle and rebuild your base once they are dry. No need to hurry. 3) Mission 7+, attacks come in order: fighters, missile, exploders, ringers, swarmers, motherships. Have missile launchers ready for swarmers and MSs. 4) When attacked by MSs have some relay in front of your base, to make them stop while you fire missiles. 5) Never forget: you can order new structures while game is paused.

Note to everyone: if you're getting loader errors, you must allow third party cookies until the game has finished loading.

The key to the survival badge is to know that any and all NON-upgraded modules at full health can be sold for a full refund. This includes the repair stations, so you can put one out to repair somethings you want to sell and then sell it back, too. This lets you move much of your base around to best exploit asteroids and so your defenses face the current wave.
