Got the AAA on my first try ever. (I'm rather surprising myself) But either way I have three tips for those having trouble:

#1 DON'T DIE OF BOREDOM

#2 You can fly backwards

#3 Don't hate Scorchio when you're finished with it. (Or Wockies for that matter)

I don't like the new MAGAX, it's too easy compared to the previous version. As a result, it's very dull and boring. Makes me think about going to sleep. However, score obtained... now to work on those other four challenges I need to do. *winces*

Argh, I forgot to challenge AAA before I sent my score oh well. I did get the Avatar out of it =3

Edit: It felt a lot easier to get that score after the first game.

I was going to post earlier today, but the game took SO long, that my hour break between classes was spent playing the damn game.

My first couple tries were below 100 because I had no idea what I was supposed to do, the instructions are really vague. Once I caught on though, it was really easy. A little tedious after the Scorchios started needing like 5 hits to finally kill them. I got to 3719 before I had to hit "End Game" and run to class. Oh well, beat AAA, earned 2k np, and got an avatar. Win-win-win!

haha, yeah, I am. I haven't really had any difficulties yet, but I am worried about Ugga Smash. Those stupid computers keep getting killed, and if they're all dead, the game ends. My high score is 250-ish.

Are there any tips in advance from anyone to get 400?

Oka, are you in the US? I think Ugga Smash is the other day that will have a sponsor game substitute...

As for tips...try to hit them as much as you can before they die? I'm not particularly good at this new version (I wasn't too bad at bumper cars), and I haven't been practicing since I'll be getting the sponsor game.

I got 3875 to beat AAA and got the av, but had to stop playing when my phone rang. I had a chance at the high score list. :cry:

Hint : type XAGAM to restore full health, and don't be afraid to retreat and regroup.

For those of you simply trying to beat Abigail (like me), here's a tip that took me way too long to realize: you can shoot the guys without actually seeing them. You only need to see the arrows. So forget there are anything except green arrows and if you see anything else, run the other way until you only see an arrow again. Then shoot the arrow until it goes away and continue on looking for the next arrow. I hope that made sense. I was having serious troube getting past level 1 until I realized that tip.

Grrrr, I *&#%^$*&$ HATE the controls on this game. Look, if Magax can float or levitate or whatever, great. That's fine and dandy. But must he always go forward, too? Drives me CRAZY to have to go back and forth to line up another shot if I miss the first one. Even more so if I have to back away quickly to avoid getting hit by a ghost or Nox. :x Speaking of which, WHY can't Magax's shots hurt him too? At least he could've been a final boss or something. In fact, having bosses at the end of each level might actually make this game a little more interesting...

But enough about that. I beat AAA for the 16th time this month and got the action figure. One of the niftiest prizes the little bugger's given out so far, imho.

And what's this I hear about another sponsor game in place of Ugga Smash? Where did that come from? Call me crazy, especially after I complained when Whack-A-Kass got replaced, but I'm actually kinda hoping that happens. I can't stand the way Ugga Smash handles, even more so than this game.

Ok, I beat it... got 400 something. I still have jubble AND M VS F to beat ^^; Jeeze Im lazier than I thought!

Actually, if one of his fireballs hits you, you don't get hurt - it just keeps you from shooting for a few seconds. While you're frozen, just don't touch anything, and you'll be fine. Everything moves pretty slowly, so take your time. There's no time bonus in this game, so DON'T RUSH.

One thing that helps me is to fly to the left instead of to the right. I don't know WHY this seems to be easier, but it is. YMMV.


:hug: I had NO idea the game was this 'easy'. My prior High Score was a 30 from playing it once. I just really thought I sucked. I didn't realize it involves more patience than anything (which I also suck at, heh). :oops: Thanks so much for explaining these simple hints. I didn't even need to use the cheat code. I got a 4,286 and the avi! 8)

YES!! Got the av, and an action figure woot! :D I love getting action figures, because there's not that many of them, and my Uni collects them, hehehe.

On another note, I will never play Magax again. The game is easy, but sooo long and boring. >.>

Thu Mar 22, 2007 3:53 am

I was so bored with Magax so I challenged Abigail.
However, I put on some fun music and I managed to keep myself interested enough to grab the avvie after! :)
Yay! #214.
