Just blow the bombs before projectiles hit you. I'd make sure I have bombs going into this boss fight- usually only 2 or 3 is necessary for a pretty easy win. The last boss has several difficult to dodge projectile attacks, and on harder difficulties fires a bouncing blade. It also will rush you with an instant kill ability. Strafing away from the first tendril almost always is safe. Using a bomb will destroy tendrils headed towards you and make you invincible. The corruptor (2nd boss) has tendrils that instantly kill you. Start out in the middle, then pick a side and move that way when it starts firing. Then the carrier fires a constant rotating beam. The interceptors don't do anything for most of their life, but fire a few projectiles before they retreat. The carrier (first boss) is very straightforward. Losing drones drastically hurts your ability to deal damage, ESPECIALLY in boss fights.

If you die, you drop your main weapon upgrades as pickups.īombs clear most of the screen of enemies and projectiles and give you a short duration of invincibility.Īlmost always use a bomb instead of risking a hit. If you have no drones left when you are hit, you die. If you get hit by most weapons (some boss attacks instantly kill you), it will destroy one of your drones. The order is: side missile, drone, plasma, bomb. Item drops are random, and rotate over time in a set sequence. Same thing if you have plasma and switch to the side missiles. If you're using the side missiles and pick up the plasma, you will switch to level 1 plasma. For example, pick up the "side missiles", then pick it up one more time to have the upgraded version.
THE LOST VIKINGS 2 CUTSCENES UPGRADE
Both of those can be upgraded once by picking up the same upgrade again. Your main weapon is either the dinky default gun, the side missiles, or the plasma. Plasma is way better at killing bosses and keeping drones alive allows you to deal with normal enemies. The best weapon loadout I could find is the double plasma + double drones. You can't check achievements in game, so either memorize the score benchmarks or pause the minigame and alt-tab to look up the score levels.
THE LOST VIKINGS 2 CUTSCENES PLUS
It got pretty difficult to fight the boredom near the end, but I knew what I was getting myself into. The Lost Vikings will have the audio and visuals of its original release, but extra levels and cutscenes from later editions, plus it'll bump the number of players in local co-op from two to four. I got 500,000 points on my first try and it takes about an hour and a half. The game itself is somewhat fun, albeit very repetitive. You also get an achievement for killing the final boss, but since that happens every 3 levels and you need to play about 9 waves to get 500k points, that will happen regardless of what you do.

You get an achievement for scoring 125,000, 250,000, and 500,000 points in it. In case you're wondering why you should play it at all, it's a nice distraction and there are achievements to be won. It's a scrolling space shooter, reminiscent of similar games made in the 90s. So once you start playing the campaign missions, you'll get access to the Cantina and be able to play "The Lost Viking" minigame.
