Tips on beating it
Only buy things that give you speed/agility. This game is classified as a 'shooter' but really it's an 'avoid' game.
You never need to aim, so to beat it you simply have to put 100% of your attention on avoiding bullets since you have very limited health.
By not upgrading your cannon, it makes the levels last longer so you can collect more treasures which actually means more money.
You have unlimited range, so the best strategy is to just outlast the monsters and go around the outside of the level, only picking up gold from the treasure chests. Don't bother getting gold from ships because the risk of getting hit by a bullet is too high.
The second boss is much much harder than the final boss. You pretty much need to have all your money in things that give speed and have not lost any heath until then to beat boss 2.
Spoiler: Also, when the final boss dies, don't go on top of his body like you can the other bosses to pick up the money. He spawns another boss which will kill you by touching it rather than giving you money. This is a bad UI decision on the part of the developers IMO.
I love it
Its genius. I love all your games by you guys.
But something in this game that has been in quite a few other flash games as of late. When your mouse scrolls outside of the flash box, it auto sends the mouse position to 0,0. Which has killed me many times already not just in this game.
I wonder if this is Mac only users that experience this? And if there is a way to fix it other then click+holding the mouse at all times. I gave a 9/10 because of this glitch, I'm sure there's some way to fix it with programming.
I gave 5/5 and fav'd :)
Easy gameplay,
but quite short.I actually got to finish the game the first time!
Brilliant
Easily one of my favorite flash games of all time. it has everything, upgrades, challanging boss battles, its satisfying to play, simple controls. And i love how when yo die, depending on your score, you get additional starting money, so you don't loose everything.
