Controls:
Shot 1
Shot 2
Beam
Hold [Shot 1] for slow focus movement. It also shows your hitzone.
Holding [Shot 2] does not activate slow focus movement.
All shots have auto fire.
Game system and scoring:
Collecting cubes reloads your beam faster.
After a beam was fired your shot system needs to cool down to regain full power again
Grow cubes to increase your score. Scoring high grants extra lives.
Cubes can disappear and break if too long exposed or get outside of the screen.
Use the beam to freeze or re-freeze cubes so they exist longer.
There is a boss multiplier. Get this as high as possible for a high endboss bonus.
There is a penalty on the boss multiplier if you fire too much beams in a boss fight.
The enemy multiplier is dynamic and influences how much score you receive by each enemy.
It's influenced by the amount and status of the cubes on the screen.
Tips:
- Unlock more continues by playing the game or training mode.
- Enemy bullets have a very small hitzone.
- At the end of the stage there is a sizeable "BOSS NO BEAM BONUS" if you didn't fire any beam in the boss fight.
- Score high to receive extra lives
- Frozen cubes can slowly freeze other nearby cubes.
- The ultimate goal of a STG/shmup is to clear it with only 1 continue (1CC).
