Stage by stage comments

Stage 1

Here we just need to collect the Laser shot as it is the only subweapon we will need for the rest of the game, it can be used on bosses and does a bunch of damage. shooting after making a blast will cause the laser to despawn so the next one can come out.

Stage 2

Jumping to shoot the boss makes it so there's less distance for the shot to travel

Stage 3

A couple spots you can clip up to on the climb up if you have careful enough positioning.

Stage 4

I unfortunately was not able to avoid 4 cycles on the boss, in hard mode the health of bosses is slightly raised, and it's extremely tight to deal any damage to either head, where it takes 4 cycles to get. Unsure if there's any way to limit cycles for it.

Stage 5

I pause for a brief second near the beginning to avoid a grenade, make my way all the way to the alien section, and done.
