Yeah. But I've had points where I've reached low health and then out of nowhere I'm gone. It would happen so quick I dont know what caused it. Makes it tricky to learn how to improve when you don't know what happened.
Are the power ups random? Some things appear and disappear very quickly. Most of the time if I collect anything its because its right there in front of me but some seem to be always out of touch.
Maybe you're just getting too old for fast games now
But actually that's not a bad score at all.
Weapon power-ups are obtained from the 'powerdroids' which sometimes fly past in the middle of an enemy formation (see help screen for what they look like).
Other power capsules can float up after hitting a target - they give things like energy recharge, smart bomb, invincibility etc.
Alienoids fly down from the screen with a special siren noise - they will boost your multiplier to max and give you a big score boost. They also contribute to your skill bonus (amongst many other attributes).
Keep playing...
We just hit 75% of our goal Woop! Thanks GRcade for the tweets.
