Achievement Walkthrough:
Yes, this game only takes a couple of minutes. Still, it is best to make it yourself as easy as possible. This game is basically a 2d shoot them up. You have 2 ships, Blue and Red. You can both have them situated on the left or on the right. (So 4 spots where a ship can be, 1 and 2 is for blue, 3 and 4 is for red.) Autofire will be turned on, all you need to do is move the ships around to
- Damage the boss in the centre with both ships
- Pick up hearts
- Avoid skulls
- Smash bunnies by hitting them from the side
In the main menu, make sure that you check the controls by going to 'configure' ( they should be and by default to move the 2 ships). These 2 buttons are the only ones you will be using.
Now press game start, and start the game with the following set up:
-1 heart (down on the D-pad once to change difficulty)
- Autofire ON (should be so by default)
- Gunner outfit (easiest to rack up points and go through the stages ASAP. You won't die as often anyway. I believe you get 1 life at the start with this character, then an additional 1 for each stage you complete.
STAGE 1:
Try to pick up as many hearts as possible and get used to the controls. No skulls or bunnies yet in this stage. When your ships don't need to pick up hearts, keep them in the centre to attack the boss (boss health is shown in bottom right of the screen).
STAGE 2:
Stage 2 the same deal as stage 1. The only addition is the appearance of bunnies and skulls. Avoid getting hit by skulls and bunnies from the top at all cost! Be sure to hit bunnies by bumping into them from the side though!
STAGE 3:
Same deal as stage 2.
Assuming you haven't died once, do so now.
Then press Start and exit game. Press game start again and play on the highest difficulty (3 stars) with any setup. There you go, game completed!
As other solutions have set out, you want autofire on and to make sure the difficulty is set to only one heart.
There's a few different suggestions for which costume your character should use; if you're struggling make sure to pick the Princess costume instead of the Gunner outfit. The Princess costume will grant you more lives, where as the Gunner actually gives the bosses more HP so could end up making this harder for you.
Be aware of your timing when faced with more than one row of bunnies or rows of bunnies and skulls. If you panic to try swipe them or avoid them you can end up mashing the buttons and missing the right timing. Hold steady!
It sounds obvious but it's not stated elsewhere; make sure to keep your gunfire trained on the boss when not collecting hearts. So anytime you get hit or make a mistake be sure to centre both paddles on the boss to maximise the damage you can do in a short time. The more you hit the boss, the faster the stage will be over.
I hope this help!
To make the stages as easy as possible, when you start a game, set it to the easiest difficulty (one heart), make sure auto-fire is set to On, and I recommend choosing the Princess Outfit to give yourself more lives. With auto-fire on, you can ignore entirely to shoot. The only buttons you need to use are and to move your two paddles.
Stage 1 has no way to die. There are no skulls or dust bunnies. Simply collect as many hearts as possible and try not to miss any. You'll shoot and defeat the boss automatically without having to try, and you'll move on to the next stage.
Stage 2 introduces dust bunnies, and moving columns as things descend. Still try to collect as many hearts as possible, and try to kill the dust bunnies by "chopping" them with your paddles, but most important is to not let a dust bunny land on your paddle. That's the only way you can die, so that should be your top priority. As with the first stage, you'll defeat the boss automatically while dodging and collecting since you're using auto-fire.
Stage 3 introduces skulls that kill you if you touch them, in addition to the dust bunnies and moving columns. You'll almost assuredly die a few times on this stage, but you should have plenty of lives to spare. This stage should be entirely about dodging skulls and not getting hit by dust bunnies. Collecting hearts should be your lowest priority, because by now you'll have leveled up, gotten the two points-related achievements, and can farm hearts in the first stage later. All that matters is completing this stage, so dodge everything that can kill you until the boss is dead and this achievement unlocks.
