I forgot that the Boarsheads fire Smart Missiles. And I forgot that these mines LOVE the green Hulks. This mine wrecked me. Plus it spawned a Boarshead and a bunch of swarmers at my spawn point which killed around 5 of my lives just trying to get back to my powerups again. Oy.
But it's coming back to me. As I recall, when I played these mines in the past, I had a feel for which rooms were worth entering, and which ones weren't. But I plan to explore as much as I can. Might as well.
I think it's ridiculous how hard it is for me to fire through a grate, but how easy it is for a Hulk to fire a homing missile at me through the same grate.
And did you notice that one Hulk that kept going back and forth to intercept me near my location while I was exploring, then again after I respawned? Jerk...
I found the switch in the escape tunnel from the last mine that opened up the two Earthshakers (watched a video). So I have those.
12 lives down.
