Hahaha loved the comment. Yeah definitely not an easy game. I like making difficult games and getting the feeling of achievement, but making a hard game probably wasn't a good idea for a game jam.
Here are some tips in case you want to try and beat campaign mode:
- Decrease difficulty, seriously the first thing you can try, it gives more health, energy and air at the start.
- Rotate only if you have to, try to kill enemies at the last possible second, like you can wait a bit for the crawlers but the missiles you have to react immediately.
- Keep resources topped up, especially when waiting for more enemies. Scrap amount left shouldn't be an issue, even though I wanted it to be. You generally always have a lot of scrap left
- Try to consistently make it to 1:30 time so that you get 2 modifiers. Try new modifiers each times and try to deduce which ones are overpowered. There are also some combos that make the game almost too easy so try to find them too. In a way this is also kind of a puzzle game. Which modifiers make my life easy?
