The speed-up in Lifeforce is annoying

Post by shinsage »

You speed up way too fast after one speed-up. I find myself crashing into walls to get a power-up way more often than I should! That kind of speed is reserved for at least a second or third speed power-up.

also this topic is important discussion, more people must weigh in on how unfair the speediness of it all is

sorta agree, but no game-breaking. Just need some adjusting to it. The opposite may be Gradius Advance .... too many speed up icons are required to get a decent speed.
