Just a note: guys, you can move up and down as well as side to side! May sound stupid, but I failed the first level three times before I figured that out.

Two things that need serious improvement. 1) Lag is a serious issue. You need a way to adjust the quality. 2) Any enemy I kill at the top of the screen is a ton of money lost. You need to have only the bottom portion of the screen destroy money, and then only when they have left completely. Otherwise, there is little point in killing things on the edge.

The "Frantic" series are the best bullet hell games I have played so far. It has an awesome soundtrack that really suits the gameplay. The neon bullets "frantic's" got goin' there not only helps you incoming projectiles them but looks great as well. The upgrades do make a huge difference, unlike some games...ughum. I do still prefer "Frantic 2" though.
Get comfortable, and (maybe) zone out (or rage if you prefer) as you play FRANTIC 3.

Scraping is when you scrape your ship near enemy bullets for bonuses. It's risk and reward. Now MY question. How does the "Emergency Device" work?

GOT YOU, YOU LITTLE BASTARD!
There should be a warning for that impossible badge: 'Warning: Lots of wasted time detected'

People keep saying 'Rocket Launcher' in their advice... is that the 'Missiles' or the 'Particle Launcher'? Because I see no 'Rocket Launcher'. Also for ivod he says put 8 upgrades on the Interceptor but it only allows 6?

This is a bit irritating I have killed well over 500 enemies yet I don't have my badge. And yes I've submitted score and everything.

ivod's comment was really helpful, and I was able to get the impossible badge following his advices. However, as I racked up money try after try, I slowly started replacing cannons with rockets. In the end I had six rocket launchers, and the last boss seemed easy with those. I recommend doing the same, given you can get your hands on the enormous amount of gold needed (shouldn't be hard, since you'll be retrying over and over).

What I'd like to see added would be some stats and more weapon info. I'd like to see the damage, fire rate etc of the weapon I'm buying and also what exactly I'm getting when I upgrade a weapon.

Ah Frantic, the title that explains exactly how I feel and am in the cockpit of my ship among the many blazing stars that pass me. It's more fun to imagine being in the ship, yelling, panicking, and avoiding being shot down than being cool, calm and collected. Another great title that feeds the Sidescroller and Bullethell need. Now for the review and nitpicks. Gotta say, it controls really well, though I wish you did include a mixed control setting of mouse and keyboard. When I play as mouse I get a weird lag when I either go into or out of Secondary fire. Often the cause of my untimely demise. Keyboard is smooth and fine without interruption. Could be that I'm using a tablet with a mouse or the browser. Also I agree that the excessive death explosions are excessive. Maybe after seeing it 10 times you could skip it?

@archerngan, did you clear the levels? Otherwise, i'd consider refreshing or the tip from the memory thing at the start of the game

really amazing game overall, would rate 5 stars but that explosion when you die is horrible so I'm sorry but i can only give it 4 stars.

And the winner for best usage of 80s music in an online game is.... Frantic 3! Seriously - I don't care if I loss to a cheap hit because the boss music was awesome.

Very challenging, but the save feature means that you can always pick up where you left off, and earning money even when you die means you can slowly build up to your ultimate ship. Good game.

Drunk brain decided it would be awesome to try and get the impossible badge after a twelver. Yeah, thanks for the frustration douche-brain.
