Has anybody tried this yet? It's located in the Cantina of Hyperion and is playable as soon as you see it.
So basically you are a viking in a top-down blackhawk style shooter. You collect powerups and bombs, arrow keys for moving and space for firing; all pretty general. But the bosses are pretty cool, and there might be some nice achievements that go with it.
My high score is around 4000 first time playing
|
I found it really hard, dunno about other people though T_T
|
Yea the controls on the viking are pretty shitty
|
I can't get past the scourges T_T
damned explosive spores make my viking go boom, cuz you can't evade them when it's in a tight formation.
|
Get the rocket upgrades, makes everything except Bosses a joke after you get around 3 or 4 upgrades And try to get 2 Drones around you, too.
|
theres a quickguide about it somewhere on tl.net. shudda searched before u posted..
|
Do the rocket upgrades stack past level 2? I can't seem to get 3 or 4. Drones are definitely a lifesaver.
I die at the corruptor + scourge area
|
|
|
I think you get 3 stacks, and then the weaponset upgrades entirely into a plasma cannon (or something like that). I died shortly thereafter...
|
i beat the first boss than lost
|
Got 800 000+ points at this game.
+ Show Spoiler +Just to help, the last achievement is at 500 000 points, I continued thinking there was some sort of real end to it but no. There are 3 levels, after the third level you can re-do the same levels except they will be a bit harder. I gave up after 800 000, before that I thought there might be some "secret end" or smthn.
|
Is it just me or is the vikings moving laggy? Like i hit move and it doesnt move.
|
I only got to level 2 but I haven't tried much. Seems pretty difficult, though the drone guys are awesome ^.^
|
Can you play this after finishing the campaign?
|
I got to 250k then quit the game is ultra repetitive I'll get the 500k later, only 3 stages and the bosses are stupid without using plasma shot and 2 drones.
|
I got to a million points (L17) just to see if there's any hidden reward (there's not), at which point I just quit even though I had plenty of bombs and lives left.
It's easy when you get the hang of it. In a nutshell my approach was:
- Side Missiles powered up - 2 Drones (replace asap if lost) - Bombs, Bombs, Bombs (never take a power-up if it's not a bomb and you've got drones up, you can wait for them to change)
Whenever you risk taking a hit, always bomb. Assuming you're decent, for a long time you'll be finding more bombs than you use up (I think I had 25 or so at one point).

i prefer using plasma shot, the bosses make me want to commit suicide if i used sideshot

No, not just you. I have like 1 second lag. Really makes it unplayable
|
Hm. . . I'll try these tips. The plasma sucked for me.
|
Someone also posted some tip, you can increase firerate by hitting the space bar instead of holding it down. With sideshots there is no way to lose in the non boss part.
