Under rating threshold (show) IMPOSSIBLE BADGE TIPS: First of all, get the 'interceptor' ship. Play on kamikaze (no hits allowed) and casual (bosses and enemies are weaker and bullets are slower). Completely focus on dodging, money won't be a big issue. Get 8 cannons and 1 rocket (yea, the ninth weapon slot is in dark green and hidden but if you click on it you can buy a weapon there:p), and 3 power booster, 3 overdrive drive and 2 Absorption panels. The only hard thing about the impossible badge are the last 2 levels (Area 5 bonus 2 and 3), in which I show the tactics here; http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P5Nv1cLOamI Good luck!

Under rating threshold (show) God.I wonder whats with the people out there and their amazing ability to vote comments with wrong information.I REPEAT:Stacking Missiles DOES work.It increases the number of targets you fire at by 2.Incase there aren't enough enemies,the missiles just randomly group up to deal more damage. I.E. If you have total of 6 missiles[3 slots] you can shoot 1 missile at 6 enemies at once and if there are say 3,you fire more than 1 missile at an enemy.Why don't People Get this and continue voting up Karyuudan?

Under rating threshold (show) i think that when the boss is defeated (or the level ends) when the bullets turn into the coins, the big bullets should turn into $100, not $1

Under rating threshold (show) two quick suggestions: a restart level hotkey (so you don't have to wait for your ship to explode for 5 seconds) and the ability to turn off effects like gold drops and your own shots, so you can see enemy bullets easier.

Under rating threshold (show) This game needs a 'hide coins' option. Its frustrating to die because of the constant coin flow after you fully upgraded your ship and a bullet hid behind the money drops.

Under rating threshold (show) Bloody good bullet hell. As always. 5/5. Just one little suggestion: If you please make a border around the actual playground, so you have a bit of space with your mouse to move, before the ship gets stuck at the border. This really bugged me. I need more space for surgical dodging those bullets :D

Under rating threshold (show) Ivods suggested strategy is good, but for a defensive player like me it was impossible to use, for me a tactician with 5 missiles, 3 power boosters, 3 solar panels, 2 emergency devices, 2 SETA devices and 3 Advanced Targeting was more successful. This strategy needs a lot of anticipation and timing the secondary fire at the correct time for a trade off of more breathing room and making tough sections vs bosses easier.

Under rating threshold (show) Frantic 2 was a great game, fun, challenging, and, most importantly, polished. This seems unfinished or rushed. The core gameplay is good, most likely copied from Frantic 2 with some graphics changes. But the shop seems buggy (extra weapon and accessory slots) and unfinished (no stats about anything). Coins become useless long before you've finished playing if you're trying to get unharmed achievements, but there's no option to disable coins, which was highly requested on Frantic 2 comments. I want to like this game, because I liked Frantic 2 so much, but it really adds nothing to the series. Rating: 2/5 I will gladly upgrade to 5/5 if the developer makes a few changes.

Under rating threshold (show) I really don't like that we have to start a new game to edit the modifiers or change ships. It's a deep enough score/achievement system that it could get endlessly grindy and frustrating if we're constantly changing modifiers to try to maximize score. PLEASE let us change them in game. Also, it would be nice to be able to purchase different ships in the same file. Sticking with the same ship seems a bit punishing for someone who picks poorly in the beginning but still wants to get a lot of achievements or something. On that note, I noticed that achievements don't transfer over save files. It would be nice if they did.
