I knew it was Dr. Morbis, but I enjoyed seeing all of the different interpretations despite his avatar literally being the Cheetahmen character. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got almost no points on the Moai level because I was just trying to get out of there. Yeah, I got massive points on the Moai level since I had four options, fully powered. I actually thought I wasn't going to die until the speed-up level since it's so easy once you're fully powered up and shielded..... but then I hit the one friggin' boss who's projectiles you can't shoot, and my shield was already red So yup, sounds like we died in the exact same spot! But like I said, my score will guarantee me top 5, and that's 'bout all I'm looking for in the regular season...

It's hard but definitely doable if you put enough time in. And this is coming for someone who also ranks shooters as their least favorite genre. The main thing is the powerups. Every time you get one of those powerup icons (which usually come from defeating a wave of enemies or the orange enemy), the next powerup gets selected. Then when it gets to one you want, press A to cash out. I think someone here suggested "Speed up, Laser, Speed up, Force Field (the question mark)" and that seemed to work for me. After that I got to four "options" (clone ships that follow you and shoot when you do). Then you just have to memorize where the enemies spawn in the first 1.5 levels.
