This is a badly designed game, usually the point of a bullet hell is to avoid the bullets. You have a big ass ship and the bullets are everywhere, it's literally impossible to dodge them. *sips tea* but that's none of my business

I finished the game with Setas on instead of power boosters to get the impossible badge, but everything else close enough to the same. Seta + Absorber means you can slow your way through the hardest parts of anything, and you can rapid toggle the slowdown to get a lot of scrapes and pick up absorption boosts along the way. It has good sustain and I found the combination to be a godsend against the 5-6 boss. It's significantly harder than the rest of the game.
One general advice on the 5-6 boss: In his final third, he starts summoning bombs. You have to get to the bottom middle as quickly as possible, as you'll get trapped almost anywhere else. Immediately after the bombs, get away from the bottom middle, because shortly after this, he'll summon red orbs from offscreen, which will instantly kill you upon spawning if you stay there. Both these phases killed me the first time I encountered them due to the sheer cheapness of them.

Always epic game Frantic series! An alternative TIPS for IMPOSSIBLE BADGE "lazy version":select Tactician ship(fast regen energy and 12 accessory),select Kamikaze and Casual.Buy early 4 rockets(after some levels you can afford the first rocket)and buy 1 laser(clicking on the DarkGreen slot as ivod wrote(thx ivod),no problem if laser dont hit boss.With these weapons you do not have to worry about hitting enemies and bosses standing to the side dodging,but you have to worry only to avoid the bullets,and money will rain toward you.Buy 3 Overdrive Drive,3 Advanced Targeting,3 Power Booster,3 Coin Magnet for get fast money,after change it with 3 Absorption Panels;)In Area5 bonus3 change laser with cannon.With this ship that has fast charging of energy,you can use Secondary Weapon when there are so many enemies(just a few clicks and the rockets will clean everything easily meanwhile you can asleep):D Do the same obvious tactic..survival dodge!You have earned all achievements!Have a good game

Olde skool arcade style game. Seemed to work pretty well. Has a cool Dragonforce/Enflames/Japanese metal like soundtrack; at least during play action.

Quick hint for the people struggling with almost impossible small spaces you have to survive: Get the upgrades that gives Shield for scraping.
When a fight starts try to get a full shield, then when you get a point where you struggle just press spacebar before that point on the 2nd run and burst the boss down (at the cost of the shield) And make sure to recharge it with the modules right away so you can burst in another pinch.

Wow, fake difficulty. I can't remember how many dozens of times I've encountered patterns where it was literally impossible to squeeze a single pixel through; the bullets were seriously that close together. No really, I paused and analyzed it, there was seriously no room. The worst thing about these kind of bullet hell games that this (and many other developers) didn't program, is to have it auto pause when the cursor leaves the game screen. The bottom of the screen is the best place much of the time, and the cursor tends to go offscreen a lot when you're hugging the bottom frame.

I hate this type of game because it inevitably just devolves into a stupidly large number of bullets. It's the ultimate way to avoid having to be clever, just make a fuc k load of bullets. It's especially aggravating because dying over and over to it while trying to play is infuriating.

Jeez, everyone's talking about how easy the impossible badge is and I'm sitting here unable to beat level 13 without getting hit.

Also didn't get that far yet, but after getting unharmed after a few tries on the first area I started collecting 12k per run on the second area.
Pretty easy now to dodge if they can't fire :)

Started playing for impossible straight away, seemed insanely hard at first.
Till I realised that if you know the patterns you can focus ships down before they spawn and after 3 tries each level you should start for the unharmed bonus

That little tip on the intro screen - flash player doesn't give me that option, so no save file possible. But why would a simple flash game require 10 gigs of storage space? FIX YOUR GAME.

When going for Area 3 Bonus 3 Unharmed, I swear I just need better luck with how I move. The movement of Interceptor it so fast but shifting is too slow for the bullets. Maybe I just need to get lucky, or maybe I'm just really bad at the game. Eh, either way, it's a good game.

I can't believe I got 29 unharmed before, now I can't get past the second level. Must have unknowingly been on coke or something.

Years later, I have finally figured out that the BGM in Area 1 is actually a remix of Maoudamashii's "Boss 03", which can be found here: http://maoudamashii.jokersounds.com/archives/game_maoudamashii_2_boss03.html

Son: See dad? I told you I'd return your car unharmed!
Dad: Jeremiah (cus you know his name's Jeremiah), the paint has been scraped off of every bit of the car
Son: Oh, I only grazed it. Tis' but a flesh wound.
Dad: Cars don't have flesh, Jason.
Son: Umm...yes they do.
Dad: I'm getting the belt.
(No Jeremiahs were harmed in the making of this joke, only grazed)
