Just a tip. If you get your cash to about $250,000 and have the interest perk to level 3 you can earn money really fast. Strip out everything and then just takeoff. You don't go anywhere and you make up to $10,000 per round.
Everything can be earned for free, and the entire content of the original game (and more) remained free. What isn't free is my mortgage and my food.
Glad you enjoy the game anyway.

For anyone who is looking to clear the story mode in the least number of days. Here is my strategy (Need high level bonus shop boosts):
Step 1: Use RC with either Spring/Aux. Rocket (whichever is better)
Step 2: Use plain sonic burst without any launchers until you get El Fuego!
Step 3: Upgrade sonic burst and El Fuego! until you are confident of clearing the game, then buy russian roulette at Max-Level.
I manage to clear even 1M in 2 days with speedifier and 4M in 3 days with this .

Spearhead and Bullet are good for max speed to use with sonic burst. However, El Fuego! is increasingly better as level increases from 2x increase in power to 4x at Max Level+30.
To get high speed bonus, use Dubstep Drive without launchers, or Sonic Burst without launchers. The launchers seem to negate the speed bonus by a lot. That can serious increase daily cash by a lot to clear the days in a shorter period of time.

Trying to get all the cards? Here's a tip. Play Classic mode. Use the Omega Penguin and the Spring Launcher, then go for Propellers and Banshees for propulsion. You should be able to win each game in around 10 days with enough upgrades in the bonus shop.

@Mongo921
When the rocket has more weight than the max lift, it just reduces the efficiency. Just because the rocket weighs less than the max lift doesn't mean that the engine has enough thrust to lift the rocket. Since you have everything well past the max upgrade, it probably isn't balanced so that engines have enough thrust to lift what it says the max lift is.
Oops... it was meant as a "sort by item type" thing but I thought I had removed it since the items were a bit too varied to be sorted this way in the end.

The Dubstep Drive is very usefull for Payload mode since it can easily lift every weight and you can complete Payload in just 8 days.
The Jetpack is very usefull for storymode (Default) since you can complete the game in just 5 days. Classic can also be completed in 5 days.

Something isn't adding up. I'm doing the payload mission at the 75 weight. I have a ram jet at max + 16, pingu balloon at max + 22 and rocket boost at lvl 8. My weight without the payload is only 7.8. Ram Jet max lift is 76.7 & rocket boost max lift is 61. I've even got the mini-helpers starting things off. Yet once the mini-helpers eject, even with the rocket boost going I watch my speed slowly dwindle to nothing. How does max lift of over 100 fail against 82.8?
Because the physics engine works... in a funny way... It can be understood as "your weight vs the payload", and the lighter you are, the less you pull. Because accurate physics.

Penguins creating nuclear reactors for the purpose of space flight? Sure, I'll buy it. Flying rubber ducks? Suspension of disbelief: shattered.
We wanted to make a speedrun medal, but people in the forums were really against it. The rest would've been "grinding" medals which people in general also do not like.

Why did they wait about 6 months to give this game badges? It had a rating above 4 since it was released in February.
I think they waited because they had this microtransaction/incentivized ads stuff in mind. There were also some issues with the early version of the game with score/badge progress submission.

I reached 500,000 without launcher (story mode, after this i tried with launcher and without boosters and nothing) and i still can't get any of Keepin' It Simple medals
You must not only "not use" them, but have nothing equipped in the first place. So no launcher equipped and no boosts equipped. If it doesn't work it's a bug then.

1,1M KM setup: russian roulette, spearhead, 3x sonic bursts, 1 shuttle reactor, spin booster, fins, multirockets. (use bonus points on turbocompressor, aerodynamics and secret incredient. traffick control and spring plating are optional, but helps) And luck.

glad to see u brought the omega stuff back but compared to the originals these omega stuff suck hard worthless crap especially the brick
The original omegas made it so that all other things were useless, the news ones are in balance with everything, only much stronger and pricier. The brick is a freaking brick, and I kept getting PMs to bring it back.

@explosivepunch: There are small penguins that pop up randomly on your main shop page, click on those 4 times to get 4 videos. After that, it is 10 BP each.

Lightbringer I found a bug-(flaw) cheat, on accident...on classic mode using the jet body if you begin spinning to the right at a low altitude you can get it spinning right where it just keeps bouncing off the ground play holding right and because your technically moving forward end day doesnt happen and if you turn auto-end day off you can just bounce forever

The Keep it Simple award is far easier than people are thinking, just time consuming, 4 shuttle reactors at max, plus the space shuttle, and just pay attention to the game.

At one point, I was able to watch ads to get free sardines. Now I'm not able to do that anymore. Has anyone else had this problem?
