Dunno what that means, but it sounds like fighting talk.

Oh, I can play with my cock. Of course. I thought everyone did that, just to give themselves a joint extra challenge/get off on the rumble-feedback.

Perhaps Yak could oblige with a highly specific leaderboard filter...

Woo! - Just played up to level 35 starting from one and managed to up my start bonii by some margins!

Well chuffed 'bout that.

Drop of Fire also done without losing a life as well.

Threw on my Big Beat genre from the music player and that really helped!

DoF isn't so bad (could any level inspired by an episode of My Little Pony be bad?)...

- Watch the landing traces for the green traces of arriving flowers. Sweep hoof shots to where they are going to land to donkey most of the flowers early.
- Don't panic about not being able to sweep round the whole rim. Choose an area to defend, jiggle around in three or four lanes in that area keeping them clear.
- Shoot stuff to keep PZ up, then anything apart from Flowers at the rim can be simply bulled. If a Flower rises up just avoid it till it pings off.
- Watch out for flowers growing in your safe zone and be ready to shoot or avoid them. Likewise watch out for shots newly fired or returning.

As with any level, if you are stuck try playing the previous level and trying to leave with the Yes Yes Yes. Any level goes better when you start with semi-aimed hoof shots

That's a top tip, got me out of the shit a few times already, especially when you start getting a lot of boffins appearing together.

Semi aimed hoof shots? I thought you got "yes yes yes" when sweeping up a pod when leaving a level which gives you fast shots for the next level, at least according to the SG Gameplay thread. Incorrect? God, I'm confused!

Yeah, it does, but you can also direct the shots AFAIK..

fast bullets "bend" inwards towards enemies... like a kind of semi-homing thing...

Sometimes they are useful, but I actually find they can hamper me on some levels too... hard to shoot the priority enemies (aggresive rotors in particular) that are on the far side of lanes containing flowers on some of the levels.

You can direct normal speed hoof shots too though
