_____________

A. - Gameplay
_____________

The main objective of Geometry Wars is to survive an onslaught of as many
enemies as you can handle. You are given a set amount of lives and bombs
each time you play. At any time, your bombs can be used to clear the screen
of enemies. For the first 3 seconds into a life, your craft is protected
by a shield. After that, if anything touches your craft, you lose a life.
Once you run out of lives, the battle/game ends.

For more info, go to the respective section of each game.

__________

D. - Geoms
__________

In Galaxies, nearly every enemy destroyed leaves behind small yellow items
called Geoms. These are the currency used in the game, so obviously you
want to pick these up.

There are four types of Geoms:

Type          - Geoms
Triangle      -  10
Diamond       -  20
Cross (Small) -  50
Cross (Large) - 100

For each Geom you collect, the following will occur:
- Your Geom total for the current battle will in crease by the above amount
- Your score multiplier will increase by one (until it maxes out at x150)
- At 5,000 Geoms, an extra life is earned
- At 7,500 Geoms, an extra bomb is earned
- Your main attack changes after a certain amount of Geoms are found.

______________

E. - The Drone
______________

UPDATE: All prices in this section are the same for the Wii and DS versions.

New to Galaxies, the drone is an AI-controlled craft that helps you in
the game. Before starting a planet, the drone can be fitted with a
behavior. At the end of a battle, the drone will gain XP, experience
points, for the behavior it used. For every 100 XP gained, the behavior
will level up and become more powerful. The behaviors start at level 1
(with 10 XP already given) and max out at level 10.

Some behaviors (like Attack and Defend) are active for the entire battle,
while others (like Turret and Bait) take time to activate. For these,
the drone will flash red just before turning its ability on or off.

There are 8 behaviors, 7 of which must be bought with Geoms
(Amount needed to buy behavior indicated in parenthesis):

- Type     (Price) - Description

- Attack    (Free) - The drone follows your ship and shoots in the same
                     direction as you do.
                   - On Level Up: firepower, accuracy, and
                     spread of fire increase.
- Defense  (3,500) - The drone stays behind the ship and shoots behind you.
                     At first it will ONLY shoot backward...
                   - On Level Up: ...but the arc it covers, as well as the
                     firepower, will increase.
- Collect (14,500) - The drone does NOT shoot, but instead wanders around
                     the grid and picks up stray Geoms.
                   - On Level Up: Faster movement and turning.
- Snipe   (28,000) - The drone uses a beam to pick off targets, usually
                     killing multi-hit enemies in one shot.
                   - On Level Up: Improved targeting system.
- Sweep   (57,000) - The drone does NOT shoot, but instead circles around
                     the ship to kill any nearby enemies.
                   - On Level Up: smaller orbit radius, increased speed.
- Ram     (90,000) - Basically acts just like Sweep, but instead of
                     circling the ship, the drone wanders the grid and
                     runs into nearby enemies, killing them instantly.
                   - On Level Up: the drone will go farther away from
                     the ship and become prone to attacking tougher enemies.
- Turret (150,000) - The drone will shoot from a fixed position, aiming 
                     in a circle around itself to a fixed distance away
                     (though the shots still travel completely across the
                     grid). When not in use, it copies the Attack behavior.
                   - On Level Up: Increased target distance, firepower,
                     duration and length.
- Bait   (300,000) - The drone moves away from the ship and attracts enemies,
                     making it easier to escape from enemies.
                   - On Level Up: Increased frequency and length.

  quickly, but also to evade your bullets! The best strategy
  for these is to back them into a corner.

- Spinners/Tiny Spinners: Like the Weavers, Spinners move fast, but
  they don't evade. Instead, they split into two Tiny Splitters when hit.

--------------

O (Imagine as big as above pictures)

- Gravity Well: These guys move slow, but they take multiple hits
  to defeat. When hit, they'll suck up anything nearby while
  repelling your bullets. If too many enemies are sucked up...

--------------

o (Actual size)

- Proton: ...These guys will show up. Protons come in large packs,
  and they move FAST. Shoot them down quick or use a bomb before
  they hit you.

--------------

|>|>|>|>|>|>|>|>|>O

- Snake: They're long, they move in a zigzag, and only the head
  can be hit to kill it. They always appear in packs.

--------------

- Repulsor: These ships turn in place to find you, then they try to
  ram you at high speed, using a shield to block your shots. Hit them
  from the side or behind to kill them.

- Mayfly: These guys suck. Seriously. They appear in packs (HUGE packs
  in Retro Evolved), they move REALLY fast, and they're small. Drone small.

L/_\/_\           without outer circle here)
/_/ \|

- Mutator / Mutated: Trust me, you'll know them when you see them.
  Anyway, The Mutator (the blue ones) will attack OTHER enemies and
  change them into Mutateds (The red ones). Both move quite fast
  compared to other enemies.

  Mutators will NOT hurt you if you touch them, and they take
  multiple hits to defeat.

--------------

(O) (See Gravity Well)

- UFO / NUFO: These guys simply fly around. That's it. There are two
  types: NUFOs and UFOs. The NUFOs are yellow and travel in groups.
  They usually come in from outside the grid. If you see these,
  SHOOT THEM IMMEDIATELY! They're not a threat, but they give massive
  amounts of points. The red UFOs are very rare and are worth even more
  points.

  Though I haven't actually tried this yet, I've been told UFOs are
  harmless on your ship.

--------------

(Imagine a circle inside a second circle here)

- Generator: This (obviously) generates enemies to add into the grid.
  As far as I know the enemy can be any class type except Gravity Well,
  Proton, Snake, or Repulsor. It can only be destroyed when it turns blue.

--------------

Planet-Exclusive Enemies
________________________

These enemies appear only on their respective planets and the Var- planets.




(Imagine a Generator inside of a third circle here)

- Black Hole: Basically an indestructible, more powerful gravity well
  (only it doesn't explode and make Protons). These appear on the
  Orb- planets.

--------------

- Asteroids: Take an enemy, make it bigger, and turn it orange, and
  you get these guys. They split into two smaller asteroids when
  defeated, and the smaller asteroids produce multiple copies of the
  enemy they are shaped as. These appear on the Mas- planets.

To be precise, they can be in the form of the following:

-Wanderer
-Grunt
-Weaver
-Spinner
-Repulsor
-Neutron

--------------

- Cell Mass: Think of these yellow guys as a virus. In fact they
  appear on the Vir- planets. They group together in large packs and
  multiply quickly.

--------------

- Wormhole: A pair of orbs that, when entered, teleports you ship and
  enemies from one to the other. You gain a temporary shield upon
  exiting the Wormhole, and you must wait for it to disappear
  before re-entering the Wormhole. They appear on the Por- planets

- Mine Layer: These indestructible enemies (obviously) place mines
  on the grid. These mines are activated when touched by your craft
  and can be used to destroy enemies from far away. Also, as each
  enemy is killed by a mine, the score jumps dramatically. Mine
  Layers appear on the Min- planets.

C. - Score Table
________________

High scores are important for this game, since medals earn you bonus Geoms
(More on that later). Here are the point values for each enemy with x1
and x150 multipliers.

Note that Black Holes, Mine Layers, Flippers, and Wormholes cannot
be destroyed.

Enemy           Points (x1)     Points (x150)

*The score for any enemies sucked up by the Gravity Well are added to
 the Well's score when defeated.

_____________________________________________________________________________

3 - Galaxies
_____________________________________________________________________________

Before I go any further, please note that what I refer to as "galaxies"
are called solar systems in the game.

The main objective of Galaxies is to survive an onslaught of as many enemies
as you can handle. The number of lives and bombs you start with is
determined by the current planet. An extra life is gained for every 3,000
Geoms, and an extra bomb is given at 5,000 Geoms. 

Galaxies consists of 64 planets spread across 10 galaxies (74 planets on 11
galaxies if you include multiplayer). Each planet has high score
requirements to reach bronze, silver, and gold medals. These medals,
when first awarded, give an additional amount of Geoms.

Each galaxy (Except for Alpha) must be bought with Geoms to reach its
planets, and each planet (with the exception of the first one or two,
and the Alpha, Lambda, & Multiplayer planets) must also be bought in order
to be played on.

_________________________________________________

A. The Planets (And Maybe... How They Were Named)
_________________________________________________

In Galaxies, there are 13 types of planets that can be found in the game.
Their names are displayed as (Planet Type)(Number).
____________

Planet Types
____________

Bear in mind that the parenthesis are just my thought on what they stand for.

- Trainer / Cla(ssic): These planets act just like Retro Evolved; no tricks,
  just kill the enemies.
- Mas(sive): These planets use primarily Asteroids, but are otherwise
  just like Cla(ssic)
- Sur(vival): You only get one life here, so don't blow it.
- Orb(it): These have a Black Hole in the center, and the enemies travel
  in a spiral.
- Roc(k): Meteors are the main enemies here.
- Min(e): Mine Layers are always seen here, along with unusually high medal
  scores...
- Fli(pper): As the name suggests, Flippers dwell on these planets.
- Los(?): These are generally small planets with small corridors.
- Bat(tle): I think this really means battle, but I prefer bat-**** crazy.
  These planets have enemies come in large packs (usually on one side of
  the screen), and they move much faster than usual.
- Var(iety): The miscellaneous planets; they can have any layout and enemies
  (even ones that only appear on other planets).

The following 3 planet types are NOT in multi player Galaxies:

- Vir(us): These planets have the Cell Mass enemy on them.
- Zoo: These planets are almost like a maze; small corridors are usually
  found here.
- Por(tal): A pair of wormholes appear on this type of planet.

_____________

Number System
_____________

Each planet ends with a set of letters that the determines what number planet
it is.

The number system is as follows:
Ending  = number
-zeroth = 0
-eis    = 1
-duo    = 2
-tris   = 3
-tetra  = 4
-pente  = 5
-hex    = 6
-hepta  = 7
-ama    = ??? (Only used for multiplayer)

In other words, "Clatetra" would mean Cla(ssic) #4.

______________________

B. - Medal Score Table
______________________

Now for the main part... the score table. This shows what score you need
to get bronze, silver, and gold medals on each planet.

Each planet will be shown the following way:
-Planet     (Price)    Bronze       Silver             Gold

Any blanks on these charts are areas I have not reached yet; they will
be updated soon.

4 - Retro Evolved
_____________________________________________________________________________

An exact port of the original Xbox 360 game, your job is to destroy as many
enemies as you can before running out of lives. You start out with 3 lives
and 3 bombs. An extra life is given for every 75,000 points, and an extra
bomb is given every 100,000 points.

The score multiplier is increased after ever so many enemies are destroyed
(I don't know the exact details yet).

Only the classic enemies appear in Retro Evolved.

Sadly (sort of), only Evolved mode appears here, no Retro version...

5 - F.A.Q.
_____________________________________________________________________________

Okay, I haven't gotten many questions yet, but these have been asked.

Q: What levels/game can be downloaded to the Nintendo DS if I get the
Wii version Only?

A: You can download the Evolved mode of Retro Evolved to the DS. 

Q: Does it matter whether or not you have the bonus DS levels to get
a higher score on the leader board, or is it ranked per galaxy/stage?

A: There are two separate leaderboards: one for individual planets
and one for your total score across all the planets. The boards also
have daily and all-time top scores.

As for the extra planets... since one of the planets has a 1 billion score
for gold, it would definitely help. 

Q: Is there online multiplayer?

A: No, the leaderboards are the only online function.

Q: Out of Brawl, Geo-Wars, Battalion Wars 2, Pokemon Battle Revolution
and Metroid Prime 3 corruption, what order would you recommend them?

A: Since I haven't played SSBB (duh), PBR or BW2, and going on experience
from previous games, I'd say:

Brawl, Metroid, Geo-Wars, Pokemon, and Batallion Wars 2

UPDATE: This isn't quite how I wanted this to show up. Personally,
I'd recommend ALL of those games about the same (maybe except for BW2).
The order is what I'd pick if I HAD to pick an order.

Q: Do I Get anything for unlocking all gold medals?

A: I don't know yet, since I don't even have a medal on every planet yet.
I'll know soon enough, though...

Q: I have a question that's not here. What do I do?

A: See "7 - Contact Me" to find out where to send the question.

Questions? Comments? Know someting I don't about the game? Let me know!
(This is my first FAQ, after all.) I could always use help in adding
information.

Make sure to put "Geometry Wars: Galaxies" or something like that in
the subject so I know what you're talking about.

Especially email me if you know the following:
- Any medal scores I'm missing
- Any ideas on the galaxy/planet names (mainly the Los- planets)
- ANYTHING on the DS version - I'm planning to make a guide for it as well
- Any possible mistakes I've made in the guide.

Remember, don't be a freeloader... contribute!
