Final boss is very poorly designed. It moves faster than you (at least at 41 speed), it kills you in one hit, and it randomly wraps around the screen. No skill involved, just random luck that you don't get rammed.

Okay so I dodge. And then i still die because the path crosses yours and at one time or another he WILL swich direction of its curve and that's not a path you can predict. The switch is random.

Now i remember why I didn't finish this game the first time around: that boss is a goddamn SUN!! No wonder it's near impossible!
Needs an option to redistribute skill points..

Since most of the action takes place offscreen, imo the big flaw with this game is that the minimap is not directly over the ship. Still, it is an excellent game. I hope we'll get to see a version 2!

Can't recommend Stunna 's comment highly enough, not sure I would have had the patience to finish this without their tips. Like most people are saying, the main levels are a breeze, but the last with the huge ball of molten rage and dead dreams is a nightmare. The tip of staying still and moving only to dodge works wonders. Sometimes you can skim its arc and feel like a pro :D But yes, still took many attempts. Remember to BREATHE once you've killed the minions on the level, get into the zone, and start 'charming' the boss. You're in control! You can do it! Good luck :)

Read Stunna's comment. Also, protip is to choose some corner (perhaps top-right) and also move in that direction while shooting in the opposite direction for every wave/level until the boss level. Yes, I died maybe 3-4 times doing this, but it's better than anything else. You take a small amount of damage from ramming into the few enemies at the beginning than anything else.

"Alright, the control scheme is fairly standard, just a top down shooter, I think I can do this, it should start off pretty easy, I'm ready- AAAAAAAH I WAS NOT READY HELP HELP HELP!" 5/5, a worthy challenge.

Okay. I didnt know about the 80 weapon max. i have 135 on weapons. and the rest on shield. but actually the boss is really easy. Follow these steps:
1. Clear final stage of regular enemies
2. Sit still while the boss is out the outskirts of the radar
3. When boss comes into the field move 90 degrees from where hes coming from
4. Fire at him until hes about to go out of radar
5. Repeat steps 2-4 until he's dead.

So, all you have to do is keep moving in one direction, I chose diagonally, up and to the right, continuously, firing behind you and I died only once before making it to the boss... You do need some points in engine to be able to go fast enough to outrun all of the orbs this way but it does make the game very fast and easy (if you are looking for that). Overall a good game but I thought it could use better upgrades and a more interesting cast of baddies. 4/5

lol over complicating this. All you have to do is at the start of any level just move towards a corner really fast and just shoot behind you. Everything dies you win. Its really that easy.

-.-', Tactic = Just keep going sideways anywhere non-stop and just shoot infront of you to hit all the enemies trying to catch you because they all go in a straight line, and dont worry about getting the lil green orb things, they dont dissapear so wait till end of last wave then stop so you collect em and then upgrade and redo. It's easy for the badge.

+ this if you think enemies crashing into your ship is one of the more effective ways of destroying them! cause seriously whats the point of trying to aim and shoot them if they're that fast and your shield is uber?

I HATE THAT BOSS!!! took me forever to beat him, the fact that he instakills you or sometimes spawns right next to you doesn't help either. As for the game, ether war is a lot better than this utterly broken shooter.

Well, I love the game, but it seemed to me that there was something odd with the firing, and then it hit me. When you move, the velocity of the bullets you fire doesn't fire, when, if you go by real physics, the velocity of the ship should be add to the velocity of the bullet. But that's just me being picky ^_~

This game has consumed about 50% of my time at work for the last several days. It's definitely among my favorite Kongregate sponsorships. Congrats to Kajenx for doing such a great job with this game, and I hope you all enjoy it!
