The really sneaky part is that the boxes move up and down ever so slightly one you start destroying the turrets (maybe 1/4 of them?).

Does anyone care to share some Chapter 3 boss strategies? What I usually try to do is stay in one color and destroy all turrets of the opposite color; then when this is done, I use homing lasers to take down the rest. Only problem is the damn boxes, which take me down half the time.

my only real strategy is "stay alive". i basically just stay in front of one turret and keep shooting, and use the homing lasers when i can, move to the next turret after the current one blows up. by the time the lasers come out, i more or less have a big gap to work with, and i try to stay on the opposite side of the remaining turrets, using the lasers to charge up and just keep firing the homing laser. best time ive gotten is w/around 26 seconds left i think.

on that note, how much time does everyone take on the first 2 bosses? my bests are 73 and 70 seconds remaining

Valgar / 9,035,030 / Chapter 4 / 144 chains

this is off topic but does anyone of u guys play the game on vertical 2? does it help? cause horizontal 2 cut off some borders and the default is kinda a lil too small. Plus i have a regular tv so i can't turn it sideway to play it on vertical 1.

Apparently, I'm the worldest biggest asshole. Whenever I'm on a high-score run, I screw up at the most pathetic points in the game.

Usually 70 seconds for me. I can usually get 65 on the second boss. I've never made it to the third on one credit. I hate that stupid thing.

Update mark.

first big breakthrough for like a week and a half.. sad i know but i havent' gotten to play as much in recent days. i would have had a nuts score if the chapter 3 boss didn't crucify me like always :( chaining is looking good though

sexual nougat/8,000,90/chapter 3/max chain 152

I can't seem to get anything better than 70 sec. on the first boss.

And I think I managed 71 on the second boss... only once, of course. I think.
