Made it to the final boss. After around 10 tries, I accidentally hit Main Menu instead of continue which takes me back ALL the way to the freaking beginning... F. M. L.

I find that as long as you don't waste ether on your engine, and pay attention to your radar when the wave begins, you should be relatively okay.

Compared to ether war this game is quite horrible, the fact that your shields can barely take any damage even when highly upgraded makes for a very unpleasant gameplay where you only escape and shoot

This worked for me on the last level: (stats 10 80 100) just clear the wave and then go as slow as possible this way its easy to dodge the boss.

all u guys that cant beat this game/ the boss, dont put any points into the engine, start by working on the sheild, then go even with gun/sheild, once you shoot the moon shaped thing, dont put any more points into gun, it doesnt get any better.
use tha radar!

are you kidding me? starting level 3 and BAM im dead after less then a half second. how should it be possible to score 3000 points this way?

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.
