"Hard but fun"

submission: Starfire

date: November 11, 2009

The game is hard but it gets easy as you get better ships.
Heres some tips for beginners:
1-Set your difficulty to easiest (don't worry, its just to get more money)
2-Buy a level 3 or 4 vulcan and a level 3 generator
3-Do level 1 as many times as you want, accumulate money, get a strong ship
4-Do the other levels on normal difficulty with your improved ship
5-Buy a level 5 laser beam if you have enough money later on

Survival Tips
-Beware of missile ships! They can kill you in one hit
-Don't collide with other ships, that kills you, too
-Do level 1 many times if you need cash
-The vulcan is the best starter weapon, use it
-Don't buy drones, they waste energy and aren't very strong
-Don't buy a weapon that your generator can't handle!

Hope these tips helped

"my strategy"

submission: Red Code 2

For me, what I did was upgrade the single shot with a few charge upgrades (about 5). Then I upgraded damage until it evolved into a blue plasma gun. The plasma gun drains energy quickly but there is a trick. If you've read the plasmagun's description, you will find out that if you hold the LMB it'll charge. When you charge the plasma gun enough, let go of the LMB and you will shoot a huge blue bullet that passes through and kills ALL enemies in its path: FOR NO ENERGY COST. Is this a bug? I don't know but basically, a fully charged plasma bullet can wipe out all the dots on the radar.

For those of you who are stuck on the pits: go to the status screen and click the "TROOPER" tab. There, use some energy points to upgrade ur jump stats.

The only real thing that can mess u up is if u start lagging at the 4th beacon. This strategy is the best I can come up with.

"Nice"

The game improved a lot. I liked how you could upgrade the abm laser and how the gatling cannons could shoot air units. I also like winning the first few levels by buying lots of commandos.

For anyone who wants the end...

PS: 2 Leveled up gatling cannons can pretty much handle most things, so you can have more space for factories
