I suppose I'll kick things off for Lemon.

Better than Graham at least, which is good, but I won't just be satisfied with that anymore now though.

I did... erm... less well.

Will report back when there's something worth reporting. I love shoot 'em ups. I just can't play them very well.

I'm tempted to agree with TodaysForgotten - this isn't as hard as I remembered. It even seems to tailor itself to your weapons level (a little). Just need time to practice.

I can see where you're going with that tailoring comment, Biscuit. I know when you die you do not get those ground turrets to popup, but if you dont die, you seem to get more turrets and those exploding mines.

Also, the packs of helicopters won't fire missiles if you've no upgrades.

It's a good idea to stop the problem of losing a life = game over, like in some shooters.

I would update the scores on EAB but I seem to have the small problem of not being able to get on there. Is it just me or has the site been down for hours?

I don't like games with adapting difficulty - but at least here it makes (some) sense. Still don't really like SWIV. And I don't really feel an improvement in my play even if my score improved a little:
