Under rating threshold (show) @imabunny, upgrading your ships is sometimes more important than upgrading your weapon. there's alot of crossfire, and you have to keep your ships at least at the same level preferably one higher than the enemy. I max that first, switching on and off with weapon, and a few in engine, you should be good

Under rating threshold (show) great game but needs more varieties of upgrades and maybe picking which ship to choose from and u can upgrade from that ship but other than that the game is great! 5/5

Under rating threshold (show) Wow. That's what the games should be like. I mean, at first it seemed impossible, and it was hard because of fast pace and I usually missed every freaking shot at the beginning. But when I finished it, I feel thet "OH MY GOD I DID IT" feeling, the joy of achieving something hard. It's amazing.

Under rating threshold (show) Strategy that works for me: 1)Get in front of one of the enemies orbs and shoot back at it until its gone. Aim to be taking them out right from the beginning. 2)Focus on weapons initially (homing missiles are great, as is the triple shot, the secondary canons not so much) and then engines when the orbs circle too tight for you to keep up. 3) Keep your allied units at least as upgraded as the enemy, they (not you) will defend your base. 4) Take the fight to the enemy and be aggressive!

Under rating threshold (show) for those who are strugling: dont play defensive, dont defend your mothership, just attack the yellow ones, and leave the others to your allies.

Under rating threshold (show) This game runs very smoothly for having so much going on at once. I've experienced many games here on Kong where they'ed have half as much stuff going on, but lag profusely.

Under rating threshold (show) There needs to be a version like this where we play as the enemies, I'm thinking the developer should add a sequel like this but with more upgrades, more enemies - Allies, and best of all, CUSTOM GAMES.

Under rating threshold (show) The only problem with the game is that it's visually cloudy. The many thousands of particles on a ships death or even just moving tend to mask enemy fire and make it nigh impossible to do much but fly around and shoot at the orbs. On the upside, it's a smooth, balanced game.

Under rating threshold (show) Great game though really didn't need to go past the third upgrade in anything once I knew what I was doing may I suggest slowing things down a tad and making it alst longer (black ords spawned as I killed the big red one)

Under rating threshold (show) Faster but riskier: Seems ally kills=no ether; Move closer to enemy, keep at least 2 on your screen at all times (stay away from gold suns). Upgrade Cannon 2x, then Smart Missile. You should get Smart Missile before enemy upgrades or right after. If you're good at controls, you can start killing golds. Upgrade Shield 1, Cannon 1, Triple Shot as you get enough ether. Kill outer golds: get close to one and try to keep gold between you and the other enemies (this way, Smart missiles hit gold and main weapon can kill other enemies). Stay close to gold until you kill it. Next upgrades: max Cannon, Engine 1, Secondary. Middle golds are trickiest so you can farm upgrades until confident or kill them by 1st getting close and try to stay close as long as you can. Focus fire until it dies. Clear other enemies afterwards (many will be trailing behind you).

Under rating threshold (show) Originally posted by 2much3time:I beat the game last night.. so here’s a bare bones guide: 1. upgrade cannon 2x 2. upgrade smart missiles 3. upgrade tri shot. 4. upgrade ally ships 1×. 5. max out cannons – engines – ally ships – shields. in that order. 6. profit. General strategies: - always be on the move, your shields regen extremely fast when you’re not getting shot at. - try to stay in the area between your base and the enemy red blob base so you intercept and tank most of the enemies. - once you get the auto aim missiles start the farming while killing the bigger yellow balls with the HP bars. - at full upgrades kill the rest of the yellow balls and destroy the red big orb

Under rating threshold (show) Having a hard time leveling up? PROTIP: Be Offensive. Be Aggressive. Base defense is how you lose. (also upgrade your cannons first)

Under rating threshold (show) Such a great game, there are so many elements to keep track of I love it. At times I do wish I could see the health and regen of my base turrets but I can live without. It's tough to keep track of what is actually happening at times but I think that's what makes it fun. Nice learning curve too. The first time through I did terrible not really sure what was going on. Second time, I scraped by and managed to win. Third I won with all base turrets in tact. The only real disappointment i think in this game is after you deshell the "sun" I would have loved to see it go beserk and become tough to take down rather than kinda just rolling over and dying once it doesn't have any defenses anymore

Under rating threshold (show) the trick is to not stand inside the base. Go outside it and fight the small enemies from there so you take minimal damage. Doing this will also lead your allies out to aid you there. In this way, the base will live much longer. from here, you try not to get killed, and get smart missiles after upgrading allies and cannon 1 or 2 times. maybe shield once. From here you can start standing next to yellows, but don't follow them before you have lots of upgrades. When you have almost all of the upgrades, start shredding the ywllows. The red sun is easy once you got the yellows

Under rating threshold (show) "The enemy has upgraded." That translates into "prepare for hell as they all storm your space station, and you've only gotten 3-4 upgrades, and the explosions of too many enemies and your space station kills you when you spawn".

Sep. 08, 2014

Under rating threshold (show) I think my one complaint would be the lack of station health meter. Ok, it's taking heavy damage, that's great but 1. where and 2. how much can it take? Also, making it more clear that you can lose station parts would be helpful. I didn't realize that until I had lost 2 cannons.

Under rating threshold (show) tips: always keep moving and stay between the station and the enemies to keep them around you. First upgrade allies and cannon alternatively until 100. Then upgrade triple shot, shield and smart cannon. Finally upgrade engine to chase the yellow orbs

nutshell

Jan. 09, 2012

Under rating threshold (show) As for the big upgrades, rush the triple, there should be a good point in between allies and cannon that you can afford this. This will help bring down the inner cannons. I take triple, then smart canons, then secondary shooters, i usually finish before i get the last one. To take out the first layer of cannons, get one level in sheilds and 2 in engine, and then one engine and one sheild per layer. by the time you're ready to take out the 2nd layer of cannons, make sure allies and cannons are maxed and you have triple shot. try to stay out of the center, the sheer amount of cannons will kill you, and 10 seconds can be an eternity if you're behind a level
