I've found that the best way to get the 1k combo is to get as many of the other trophies first as possible so that you get skill points to start with. Spend them all on Spread, and any that you have left on speed. Now just stay still and shoot the enemies down. You should be able to kill them fast enough to avoid getting hit, and you'll level so slowly that by the time 1k kills rolls around nothing harder than a Purple enemy has apeared.

all those who say "it needs checkpoints" or "i want to be able to save my progress and keep my skills from game to game" these games are score based, you got to gain the most points in one run as possible, its not a campaign its a challenge, i make my games like this and not campaign, makes the games more addictive aswell. (note) none of my games are on kongregate

By maxing out Regeneration, then Fire Speed, then -almost- maxing out Spread, I hit level 23 and passed a million points. Regen is truly your greatest friend in the later levels, believe me.

This game is awesome upgrades, achievements, and gameplay is all good but rewards for achieving all trophies is not good enough late in the game it becomes nearlly impossible to kill enemies as quickly as they spawn.
I don't know if there is a final level or if you intended this game to be unbeatable and the only goal is the achievements but if that was your intention then well done because i can't beat it >.<

It was nice but a bit to easy for me, the most annoying emeny for me was the fumes, they always broke my 500+ combo with their sudden appearance/death... Second was those yellow heads with their "Medusa" movement =P The Splitters were managable imo, I got all golds before silver and I got the 1000 hit combo last by not picking up pixels so the enemies stayed weak, overall a good game, spreader ftw ;)

Badge Tip: Unlock all silver trophies first, that will net you +3 skill points at game start. With that, play a game and use your skill points to max out only one skill to level 6. (You only need to level until level 6) after you are done with the golds, you'll get a +4 skill points to start. Use em to get the platinum achievements and you are done.

There's WAY too much crap on the screen at any given moment, and everything in this game is just generic. I don't require games to be totally unique, but if you're going to make absolutely no new concepts for a shooter, at least make it fun. This isn't fun.

Best way to get the endurance badges (1k combo, 1million points, etc), is to move very little. Take your time...it will take longer to level up, but it will be much easier for much longer, and as your combo score climbs, so will your high score (if you get 1k combo, you should already have 1million points). Also, the best upgrades to get in the beginning are more bullets and faster shot, as they are the only necessary ones for immediate protection/survival when you're going for the long haul like this.

(Continued) I liked the upgrades due to the fact that they replaced weapon types and allowed for more flexibility (e.g it is possible to have maxed Pierce and Rate of Fire, whereas in other games Piercing weapons tend to have a longer reload time in comparison to other weapons). Giving players the ability to advance at their own pace via Pixel Gain was also nice. Now, Achievements - the only ones I found to be challenging were the ones that had to do with your score, the rest required nothing but replays or endurance (e.g Achievements that require players to max out certain Upgrades, reach levels without Upgrading, ectr). There wasn't much incentive to get them all beyond the point boosts at the start of the game. Lastly, it has been done before, and done better (Ether War, Heavy Weapons, Endless Zombie Rampage, Geometry Wars, Death vs Monstars), try to step up and make something unique - 2/5

While this was a decent game, I felt that it was lacking in a few areas. I'll start with the story, what was the point of introducing one and not following through with it? There was not the slightest hint as to what happened to the Pixels, and as a result it all felt rather pointless. Enemies - there really wasn't much variety here, standard splitters, kamikaze, seekers and normal (Green and Yellow, in this case), the only ones that really stood out were the Shields and Mine Layers. I also found the Bosses disappointing - there wasn't anything to distinguish them from the other enemies beyond size and greater amounts of HP, and as such the only challenge they provided was for me to wait a while longer before they died, while in other games the Bosses were not only unique, but tough at times to kill (Heavy Weapons, for example).

Wait...you get a trophy...for getting all the trophies...but how do you get that trophy without getting itself first? o.0 /mind blown

This is a funny game if you think about it the best way to "beat" the game is to try and stay as low a lvl for as long as possible, because the enemies grow exponentially (so to speak) while your gun can't power up fast enough to deal with them (even with the bonus points from the medals...) in fact with the more points you start out with the better it is just to dump them all into point bonus and just try to sit on lvl one to 'break' the high score because of the ease... don't get me wrong i'm an active player and love to try to max out all upgrades (Which i feel there should be a hard or impossible badge for) it just seems like there needs to be a little tweaking to balance the game better.

Solid game, one major disadvantage is while we have to fight with mouse clicking on the screen. the music on/off, sound fx on/off, help, etc. buttons are also on screen. It is very inconvenient to avoid hitting those buttons while trying to aim the enemies. Suggest that either we activate those from pause menu, or put aside an area of the screen for those buttons.

just got the ingame medal for scoring 500.000 or higher, yet no badge, also this may just be my own stupidity but on several occasions i quit the game when trying to level up.

It's these kind of games that bring back the memories of the classic arcade games such as space invaders. I simply loved dashing from place to place trying to collect every single thing i could, Pondering what to level up, and getting the highest scores I can, I also agree with vtemo in the fact of a luck power. I was killed in one of the most embarrassing ways. I was killed by a small grunt. Not a hoard that comes out of the vessel but one of the tiny ones. I would also love a reply button that allows you to restart from what level you were at but not be able to submit your high score again. I also thought that the seekers look a bit like the Ttsourus (I think that's how you spell it).

My 1000-kill trophy has disappeared. It just isn't there any more. I still have credit for the 1000 kills-in-a-row, so obviously I've done 1000 kills total. Disappearing trophies is not good.

One problem that I was having was when I was shooting at the bottom, and I would open the upgrades menu, the mouse would be over the "quit" button and I would lose all progress. You really should have some confirmation on that... I had just hit level 19 when this happened.

There should be a "Confirm Quit?" Button, because it's too easy to press quit if you're trying to continue. But 5/5 otherwise.

first run, i got the first three badges, maybe this type of game is just too over produced, loved the difficulty, and i'll be getting the hard badge, but hopefully it gets harder past level 17

Level 50 - that's as high as I can get. Supposedly this goes to Level 100+. Impossible lol. Seems that everything after level 30 is basically the same - just bigger bad guys. As vtmemo said, in the later levels it's pretty much about luck - specifically how often you get health / fire rate bonus drops. Wish the game was a little more varied - like if certain levels were just 1 type of enemy. It's weird that you never see the mine layers after about level 15. Why not bring them back later in the game - like all of level 40 is just mine layers, etc.
