does not compute.
tweekers237 8 May 2017 16:22
hard game but you can get all the Cheevs in 2 levels.
Chriskant 2 May 2018 21:05
The 5000 and 50000 are not working. I got all the other ones.
Nomstuff 14 May 2018 14:15
The game likely needs someone who sucks less at cheevs and the game to give it some tender love
Zaphnath 1 Sep 2018 19:56

Killer set!

Sorry folks, now you *really* have to master this wonderful game.
tele 29 Oct 2019 19:58
Yeah, it's a shame everyone and their mom already has the badge.
Akerberus 1 Nov 2019 06:38
Thanks for improving this set, now I can remove the badge of shame lol. Honestly I got the badge in the first place by accident... doesn't feel right to keep. The only sad thing is that this is a killer game and set, I'll probably never master it!
Wendigo 20 Nov 2019 17:23
Great job, televandalist, Scott, Nomstuff and qwe

WARNING if you max out speed you cant control the ship aymore. Skip the S upgrades if you feel quick enough or it might ruin your run.
Arkhane 25 Oct 2022 11:24
How can my badge for mastering it be removed?
