This afternoon, I installed a couple of regular action buttons into one of my controllers, and what an amazing difference it makes when playing a shooter like this one.

I think the most important thing is to find out which ship firing pattern you like the best and dock with that one last.

The enemy ship can only fire at you when ALL 4 pieces dock and becomes one, so always knock out atleast one part.

The enemy ship is easier to hit if you have 2 or 3 pieces.

Most deaths will be because of the ship firing at you or a single piece getting to you, IMO.

Just curious...how long did it take you to rack up a score of 1,488,230? This game doesn't exactly pile on the points very quickly!!!

It takes roughly 1 hour 20 minutes per million so that game was around 2 hours.
