SOTM July 2019: Captain Tomaday

I’m not noticing very much damage done, when using the charge shot. As funny as it is to see a cartoon hand turn into a cartoon 1Ton weight, this shot seems meh.

Cheers to Visco, and I’m really glad we are playing this one this month.

Yes, exactly.
Impressive, egg_sanwich, congrats on your clear!

Thanks Oli, it's been a while since I cleared a Neo game.

If you're just the single tomato, the speed of the one-two double fist punch is way more effective.

If you have one plant and one tomato, you can still fire forward and charge up a fist at the same time, which I found to be somewhat effective against bosses.

Nice clear egg!

I was thiiiiiis close to beating the second boss. Pretty sure I can beat it next time, got all the patterns down now.

Nice clear egg!

Thanks buddy!

Second boss is possibly the hardest in the game, he has so many phases and just takes sooooo many hits to go down. Once you get past him, it's smooth sailing

Tell me about it, for cripe's sake. Beat him and got to the mecha crab in level 3. I see what you guys are saying, level 3 really wasn't that much harder and I feel like as long as you're decently powered up most things feel manageable.

So how do you get extra lives? Haven't got one yet.

IIRC, it's in one of the cans in Stage 4. Easy to miss among all the other extras falling down on you in this level.

Yup, Stage 4 about midway through the stage. It comes inside a big wave of cans that pass through the middle of the screen.

That's the only one in the game to my knowledge.
