To those people below, I thought the point of down-voting was to show your disagreement to said comment.
It's not really our fault if we don't like what you say.

Why do all the annoying fanboys have to down-vote comments into oblivion when they go against their precious game? It's a bad game in my opinion and in many others, and I find it pathetic, and honestly scary for the future of this species that people try to censor a negative or unpopular opinion just because they disagree with it.

I'm done trying. The controls aren't responsive enough, the physics too capricious. I've seen my blade pass through blobs without any recognition. I've made hits that weren't registered for a half-second. A couple of times, I've been running from a large green and been arbitrarily slowed down by *nothing* in the field. In short, what I see is *not* what I get, which simply ruins any chance to enjoy learning the skills of the game.

To kill a void eater, you must A) Convince it to use particle beam, then get up close and splat it before you die. B) Splat it IMMEDIATELY after it's gravity well attack (hard, not recommended)

Pro tips: The razor glaive is a MONSTER. Many awards are easier to achieve once you have it. To kill a queen, create distance by threatening it with your sword, then swing during her lunge attack. It's better to swing too early and clang, then to swing too late and die. The razor queen is basically the same BUT A) You must sidestep her lunge and swing towards her back, so your sword doesn't hit her pincers. B) She can't be pushed back, and can corner you if you're not careful! C) She has many more attacks, but the in-game tips will tell you how to deal with them. The razor glaive can kill a razor queen in 2 hits, but due to your reduced speed it's extremely hard to land a hit without your armor blowing up. You can also distract the razor queen with a box gun for FREE HITS if you're really struggling.

The best strategy for a queen (IMO at least): turn your back on her and keep the distance, constantly turning slightly RIGHT. When she gets close enough, make a sharp turn RIGHT and hit at the same time. This way you can stop, turn and slash almost instantly. Why necessairly right? Because our hero is left handed (it makes a huge difference). It works for a bunch of other gloopes too.

Never mind that "skill" thing I was talking about earlier. I got all the awards again for fun and have mastered the game but it turns out 90% of your deaths are from off-screen enemy lunge combos. I can see why that's very frustrating. Still one of my favorite games. Fusing enemies and giant swords are awesome.

Zekrom809, the best way to "splatter" a void eater is to wear the Hazard suit and strike from the side diagonal when the void is preparing the line attack. If you just want to kill one, you could also use a bomb, but this will not count toward achievements.

Grey blew up my armor, which splatted an oiler, which ran me directly into a sharp. Well played gooples, well played.

It seems like this generation can't really appreciate the awesomeness of challenging games anymore... all they do is complain, say the game is bad just because it's hard... come on guys, not all things in life are easily given to you, you have to face challenges, otherwise you won't improve on anything. I've been through this game 4 times in total (107, 109, 102 and 110 awards respectivelly) while going for the impossible badge, and in 3 of them(the last 3) i didn't unlock a single reward! I played just with the guy and the sword, and still managed to get the Impossible badge! Come on guys, practice makes perfect! and if you can't stand even an easy challenge(which is the Medium badge) then jsut get out of here, you don't need to spread hate on a game you don't like because YOU suck!

I got hit by two Stickies and jostled by Glooples until a Meltie hit me. I know people have said this before, but their teamwork is amazing.

Wow, Ocsa, does the fact that it's few months less old than 8 years change anything for you? also, it has a decent fanbase and was given best of 2008 status by kong which pretty much gives me right to call it a classic flash game of kong. also, amorphous+ was slightly remastered version of amorphous which was released on newgrounds in may 2007 actually.
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
Wait, why is it important when the game was released? It's a good game which came out years ago and which I've replayed several times because it stays fun.

@Ocsaleb- Published Aug. 02, 2008 with 7,350,191 gameplays. I would consider 7 years, 7 months and 18 days to be pretty close to 8 years.

@GameTommy- It isn't a classic. It didn't come out close to 8 years ago or when Kongregate first started. It came out years after Kongregate started.

When that red one showed up after so long just out of nowhere and instantly killed me immediately from offscreen I was awestruck, literally all I was saying was "what? What?! What???? What???" Like for a whole minute lol

Some awards (clearing nests, lasting in endurance mode, etc) are easier to get if you go to options and set the spawn limit to 8.

To kucicinghitam9, I love games like Dark Souls, Bloodborne, and recently one called Salt and Sanctuary. Those are very tough, but not because of the controls, as they all handle exceptionally well - it's always the players fault in those games. With this game, attacking with the mouse was too unresponsive at times, so there was a needless amount of added frustration to it. I would really enjoy this game if clicking worked like it should for me.

While a lot of people seem to like this game, I felt the controls were horrid. I lost count of how many times my hero wouldn't attack when I clicked the mouse button, getting me killed or into a bad situation. The idea of the game is great, but the polish just isn't there to make it work.

It's sad to see people coming by and saying the game is bad, not worth playing for the BOTD etc. This was made 8 years ago at least, and it still is a solid flash game till date. Simple controls, minimalistic style, enemies are unique, you learn stuff, how the gloops interact and they evolve if you let them be. You learn how to use your enemies against them. Game is hard, you get good, it's simple. I thought with harder games coming back to the mainstream, like dark soul, these whiny peeps that can't play a game that don't hold their hand will decrease.

This game isn't supposed to be a cakewalk. It's you against deadly threats. It's a game that you slowly master to become a deft swordsman and it feels great. The controls are simple as pie so I don't know how people have trouble with that. You must learn how to dodge swiftly; most enemies attack in a straight line and can be sidestepped regardless of how slow our hero is. The sword probably weighs him down. If you REALLY need a burst of speed, there is a sprint ability too... This game has it all!

@titanninja05 - You mean Grays? If so: Lure it into starting to fire a tendril lance at you, then walk slightly to the side to dodge and swing just as it's beginning to shoot. If there's a splat of gray goo, you damaged it successfully. Repeat 3 times and it'll die.

@Ocsaleb: This game came out close to 8 years ago, which is about when Kongregate was created. This game is definitely a classic.

for anyone stuck on the hadge, you can get 4 entries from glooples alone by baiting them into colliding until they collide and fuse, then repeat the process until what come out is a purple gravity based abomination.

I really want a "lock mouse to screen" option so I stop clicking near the edge/black and losing the swing command that's about to save my life.

Can't get more than nine different guys to spawn even after 90 minutes of playing. I think ill just skip this badge, wasted too much time on it already
