Im curious about how the difficult setting in the campaigne effects the "Lost Viking" game? Or it it the same difficulites regardless of what you choose in the capmagine?

Campaign difficulty has nothing to do with the Lost Viking minigame.
I'm going to sleep, let me get some of that carpet.

More features would've been nice. 3 achievements for a really bland game.

Opossum saved me, it took me a few tries (mostly to get used to the level layout) but I just got Gold on it!

Great thanks Opossum!

I saw what Opossum posted but I'm not sure how to use that. Where would I cut/paste that code into?
Race? No, I'm equally bad with all of them.

How do I run this? Needs compiling or w/e?

If you are having trouble on the zerg level, try not shooting very much. Especially around level 5 or 8, when each scourge throws crap at you for every shot. As soon as I realized that you're better off shooting very few of the scourge, and using plasma over side missiles, I immediately got gold with 3 lives remaining.

Plasma with drones is better than side missiles for almost every situation. They can still destroy the randoms flying around, while leaving you enough firepower to take out bosses/minibosses. And scourge only spew crap once when hit by plasmas. Side cannons on the zerg level will scatter the green everywhere.

Meh... that code is C++. You need a C++ compiler to make it usable.
I uploaded it to google code and included a readily compiled exe file which you guys can use without setting up the compiler and everything yourself.
http://code.google.com/p/fastspace/
There you go. For the exe go to Downloads => FastSpace.exe. For instructions read the project summary.

No, it's not a key logger but it's up to you to trust me on that. Just compile the code yourself if you don't.

Only works on windows (because I will never, ever again try and code anything for Mac, ugh).


Not sure what GNU v3 is but just do whatever you want with that source.

I did side missiles and drones then got bombs whenever I didn't need drones. I spammed my spacebar and had my pinky on control for whenever I had to go invulnerable.

I preferred side missiles because I could just spam it and just concentrate on dodging projectiles. Though with side missiles boss fights became a lot longer. Don't be afraid to use the bombs if you're about to die. You get plenty of bombs to use and I always had about 8-10 in the bank and I felt I used them pretty often.

I found the game significantly easier when I switched to plasma. I was able to kill some bosses before they used their special attacks. It is also allows you to use just your drones to shoot down the scourge, which makes it very very easy to dodge the explosions (they all stack) while it can be somewhat difficult on occasion when using the side shots.

I also used a G15 macro to press the space bar every tenth of a second, but it wasn't shooting that fast in practice. Saves the fingers!

I don't know how people are even considering using side missiles... I found it horrendous on the second level with those because of all the excess screen spam of the green goo (PLAGUUUU) that they throw out all at random angles covering the screen. If you just use the drones and spam hard enough, the angle at which they hit almost never comes towards you, and always sends out the green goo in basically one direct line, making it easy to dodge...

The downside to this is you have to be able to keep your drones up

What do you mean by difficulty level? Do you just mean the stages of the game, or does casual/normal/hard/brutal actually affect this game?

I don't want to get banned for using a trainer for Lost Viking T_T. I would never use one for anything else, but I'm kind of an achievement whore, and am not used to these retro games.
