1/5 Because of the content of the Impossible badge. That 30 levels without a single hit requires way too much luck with all the stuff spawning under your ship. It doesn't matter how careful and focused you are when you can't see the spawn coming. Why almost every decent shooter/bullet hell has to be ruined with arbitrary no-hits torture like that?

Literally everything starts going downhill when those large shielded enemies start appearing: i reccomend you to destroy it on sight, with bombs.

The bullets on Zunder NEED to start inside of the ship's hitbox. Not being able to shoot something right in front of you because it's too close is absolutely absurd.

finally after like 2-3 weeks 30mins-1hr a day got impossible badge USING fury total mobs killed 175k i kinda agree with akhlys that u barely improve but i did understood few tricks and what waves are the hardest. most of my deaths was coused by killing splitter for example when i was moving in square and when it was time to turn while killing splitter it splits and when turning i go right into it really quick(im sure its hard to understand but when ul play hardcore u should expierence it) i think moving in square is pretty good strategy ofc if its possible. while moving in square u might see that mobs starts to spawn in ur way so u gotta cut the corner.Also when u have about max speed u might want to delay killing splitters group better to kill what surrounds you cuz when ur max speed splitter are like same speed as you ofc u gotta move all the time.i could say more but hard to explain really u gotta play and see for urself.hope somebody found it helpfull what i said :)

The hardest feats is to reached lvl 30 without losing a single life.to beat it you should focus on the wave 36 reached before that...

My impressions for IMPOSSIBLE BADGE: (1.) I got it using ZUNDER. I had killed 157k mobs when I got it. (2.) This is the hardest Imposible badge I've got. In other games, you see some progress when you play more, but in this, I didn't see any. I always died in a low or mid lvl.If you want this badge, it is gonna take a lot of time.One week playing every day for a lot of hous for me. (3.) General opinion is FURY is better for late-game, and maybe it is, but as you can see it took me a lot to get it( 157k mobs) and you are going to die a lot of times before getting it and fury is very slow for the beginning and mid-game, so you are gonna take a lot MORE of time if you use fury, at least this is what I think. (4.) It is very important to use the bombs since lvl 20 (you are gonna have 12 bombs in total). Since lvl 20, when you are in the middle of a lvl and you are kind of overwhelmed by mobs (although you think the situation is controlled), use it anyhow. (5.) Keep moving.

I got to level 10 without getting hit then all of a sudden the script crashed... All my progress lost! GRRRRRRR........

Ship type is personal play choice, but for those who like Fury that are trying to get the medium badge I found the following helps: don't spend anything on speed, I found it barely noticeable and you're pretty much a circular flame-thrower. Things that are too fast for you will probably always be so, it's better to out-manoeuvre them than try to outrun. I only put 1 in weapon to increase the spread slightly, I found the one after that didn't change much so I put the rest into bombs. Only use them when you can't see a way out, a panic-button if you will. After that 4x multiplier have fun with the build, you should pass 10 no probs. Good luck! :)

As far as I could tell you don't need to get both medium requirements at the same time, what I did was focus on the 4x multiplier and nothing else, so I could work on a 'surviving' buildup to get to level 10. Buying lives is pointless when working for the multiplier because if you die before you get it you may as well kiss it goodbye. I thought I would die after getting it then having a casual play to level 10, but once you've got that multiplier getting to/past lvl 10 is a breeze as you're not so tense.

Am I the only one who never dies from enemies spawning under me?
Most of my deaths are actually from enemies everywhere cornering me, shatters of the grey dudes and little enemies coming out of explosions.
17/18 feats, almost there... just kidding I still got a few more months left.

@cold_fusion That feat isn't for clearing levels 1 through 9, it's ONLY for level 9. On 1 through 8 you can do whatever you want. That should make things seriously easier for you. The same is also true of the feat that involves level 12.

Is ninja movements impossible? With Zunder I can get to level 2 (using only one bomb) but I can't avoid the green blobs even with improved speed! With Fury, I can't even get past level 1...

Oh god rings everywhere, this will be bad... wait, I'll just move right there where there's no ring :D. 10 seconds later... GAME OVER!?!? I HATE YOU RINGS, YOU'RE IN MY ENEMY LIST NOW, WORSER THAN SPIKES

games that cheat will always get a 1/5 from me (would be 0/5 if possible) every time i get my multiplier to x3, the ship stops moving or i just die even when no enemies are near me!

Looking at the impossible feats, just the 'Complete stages 1-30 without losing a life' makes me wonder how the 5000 that pulled it off did...

@SakuraiTomoki: People rate your comments low because bragging does not belong into the comments, like stated in the guidelines to commenting: http://www.kongregate.com/forums/1/topics/64167?page=2#posts-1451409 . If anyone cares about other people's score, they can easily look at the scores tab right of the game.

After many many hours of trying I think I have to accept that I am never going to get the impossible badge. :( Sulking now!

BWWAAAOMGOMGOMG! years of practice, years of trying, *years* of failure... and I FINALLY just finished levels 1 through 30 without dying and got the badge. My fingers are still shaking. Sigh, now what am I going to do without the challenge of this game?
