tip; when you get the rock pack start to shoot as up as you can and use the rock pack after. you will get ENORMOUS distance. i would say 4000-5000 if you don't hit anything and 6000 or more if you hit things.

Always fun to come back to this game and blast the hell out of that poor turtle bastard! Iconic upgrade / flight game that never gets old. Art and music are great. Fun gameplay. Truly a classic of the genre.

Get the golden gun, always press d, shoot whenever atmo is not reached anymore on apogee, detonate nuclear bombs in between. This way you'll get to 2mil feet before your ammo runs out. Get lucky for a refill and reach 3mil feet and more.

In the Highscore, the first top 3 of all "Total ..." Highscores definitely cheated their highscore. I mean, never ever can you get 9,223,372,036,854,775,80 Launches in your Lifetime

Okay, so it didn't take anything at all once I had the golden gun. To get to 3Mil, just follow a few simple steps. First aim the cannon just a little above the horizon, next after you fire, hold "W" and "D"(It really does make a difference) while in space, hit the rocket. It will get the momentum. Last, when the turtle shifts from the far right to the middle of the screen, shoot it. Make sure you have the golden gun, cause it's the only one that puts you back to the far right of the screen. Don't shoot it more than once, when the turtle gets to the middle shoot it again, rinse and repeat. I did this with no nukes, though the turtle went much faster when I hit a nuke on it right after hitting it with the golden gun. But I managed to get 4,088,147 this way.

I get the fact that the turtle doesn't want to go into its shell cus its head and arms and legs and all its fleshy parts are bouncier than its shell...what I don't understand is how I can survive a bomb, a nuke, a bomb TIED to MY chest, etc. but spikes on the road will kill me instantly, again, even though I have a very hard shell.

I wish there were fewer spikes/aliens... Keep getting close to 3mil and then BAM spike death in the air or caught by aliens.
