Main Stream

These are the main weapons, in order of increasing usefulness.

Shotgun (Pistol) Basically the weapon you use when all of your better weapons are out of ammo. It only fires 6 shots, then you have to wait. Ideal for shooting things that don't shoot back, eg. wall switches, windows.

Machine Gun Ideal for downing large numbers of flying units. Removes any need for accuracy and timing. Not so good against armored or shielded opponents.

Tri-Rocket Launcher The best weapon so far. Blasts armored and shielded bugs with no problem.

Alternate

Weapons of dubious usefulness at any time. Plasma Shotgun Takes time to build up a charge, then the result is less powerful than the Tri-Rocket Launcher.

Grenade Its best to just let the bugs use them, and try to shoot them before they reach you. The bugs are good at making yours blow up just as you throw them. Useless unless the enemy is in a very confined space.

Non

Non weapons used like weapons.

Fish Food Makes fish grow bigger. Booby prize.

Enemy

Blue Drone

Shotgun is fine, unless in large numbers use the Machine Gun.

Green Sniper Drone

Anything, just be fast & accurate.

Brown Drone

Smarter than a Blue Drone, treat the same way.

Flyers

Machine gun, especially if they are flying in formation. If facing a large group without cover, try to attack from directly underneath. Shotgun works if you have plenty of time, and cover (to wait for recharging).

Drone with Shield

Tri-Rocket Launcher. If you don't have that, Grenades.

Drone with Shield & Big Gun

Same as with just shield.

Brown Heavies

Tri-Rocket Launcher. If you don't have that, Machine Gun at point blank range.

Tactics

If running low on ammunition or health, don't be afraid to back track to an earlier room and replenish.

Don't be too fussed about getting killed. Even tho you have to do the whole level again, you don't loose any keys or weapons you have found. This means you can skip areas, and you have an easier time of it. Besides you have to come back and do every level again, as somethings are just impossible the first time thru.
