I can go through the first part fine but cannot find where to collect the packs need to pick up additional powerups and fixes. I look at the map but just don't see where?
Gamebot? Any hints?
Hope I'm not stepping on Gamebot's toes here, but basically each screen is a sector, so there are 9 different screens.
The power-up packs are represented by the little white stars in the map.
There are 5 that you need to collect.
Bigger fuel tank - gives you more time before you run out of fuel. Located in middle right sector. Go straight up from start screen to get it. DO THIS FIRST.
Shield Pack - protects you from big, red spikey thing. Located in center sector, but you have to get to it from bottom center sector.
Power Pack - allows you to get past vertical wavy red line. Located in middle left sector. Need to have Shield Pack to get it.
Micro Pack - makes you small so you can get in small spaces. Located in top right sector, but you get to it from middle right sector. You need to have Power pack to get it.
Magna Pack - Allows you to pull in ship parts that are out of reach. Located in top right sector also, but you get to it from top middle sector. You need to have Micro Pack and Power Pack to get it.
Once you've collected a pack, you operate it by pushing the corresponding number key displayed at the bottom of the screen.
FYI, for one of the ship parts, you will need both the Power Pack and the Magna Pack.
Refuel as often as you can.
As an addendum to my earlier post about scoring, last night I completed the game in about 10 1/2 minutes, with a score of about 14,000. I got about 11,800 bonus points for that time, which put me over the 25,000.
Let me know if I can give any other tips or info.
