Newgrounds Wiki: Pumpkin Invasion

8 Medals (365 points)

Take control of your spaceship and shoot down all the pumpkins, bats and skulls from another dimension.

Collect power-ups to upgrade your ship's weapons & shields, and collect candy to get a high score.

Power-Ups

Apart from the large amount of candies you'll pick up, there will also be quite some power-ups flying around. They are listed here:
  • Purple: Gives you health.
  • Green: Decreases the damage enemy bullets do to you.
  • Red W: Increases your bullet size, strength and rate of fire. You shouldn't confuse this with the Blue power-ups as this one also is in a blue square.
  • Blue: Gives you double fire, triple fire and eventually spread fire.
Anything else that falls down, is candy. Yum.

Bosses

There are 5 bosses. They're all the same, but they'll get stronger as you proceed.

The boss pattern is quite simple. It'll spawn with a lot of enemies circling around it. I suggest you get rid of these first, so you won't have that much bullets coming at you. Next, keep shooting the boss. You'll notice that the big bullets it shoots from its eyes come up with an increasing rate. These bullets are very harmful, avoid at all costs. After a while it'll also start spamming bats. Don't shoot these, as the wave is never-ending. Just keep shooting the boss. When its bullets come up almost directly after each other, you must quickly swift inbetween them to not get hurt. While shooting, of course.

Follow this strategy and you can take over the bosses. Ah yeah, defeated bosses drop an enormous load of candies. Profit!
