Assault Android Cactus (PC/Steam)
Version 150922d (2015 Sep 22)

Stage 5-3: Convection
4P Virtual Player Count + Mega Weapons
S+ run using Peanut


So I decided to take a little break from Liquorice by taking a closer look at another of the new additions to the game: Mega Weapons! And what better place to test out what they're capable of than in a frenetic "sink or swim" environment? So I decided to try them out on VPC4 Convection, figuring that if there were any significant weaknesses (or strengths) to using the Mega Weapons, VPC4 Convection would probably reveal them fairly quickly. =)

Based on what I've seen so far... it looks like the Witch Beam team did a pretty good job of balancing the Mega Weapons. Of course, since the Mega Weapons do replace your character's normal Secondary weapon... and since each character's playstyle was balanced according to that specific Primary+Secondary combination... using a Mega Weapon means you're going to have to play your character differently (sometimes quite differently!) than normal.


Peanut's Mega Magma... is actually really effective on Convection (maybe on other levels as well, but definitely on Convection)! =) Enemies already take damage from stepping on heated floor tiles, but adding floor magma as well... can make an area extremely damaging for enemies to wander through. So after firing a quick burst of Mega Magma in one direction, Peanut can focus her normal attacks in another direction, allowing her to inflict a pretty good amount of damage to two groups of enemies at the same time! This extra versatility was a lot of fun to work with, so despite losing the maneuverability and invulnerability of the drill attack, Peanut's Mega Magma has actually become one of my favorite Mega Weapons. =)

Anyway, here's my first ever Mega Weapon Peanut vs. VPC4 Convection S+... hope you enjoy!
