1. Dodge its attacks:
Pal-1000 moves around the screen in different directions. Pay close attention to its movements and be prepared to dodge its attacks. When it shoots projectiles, move out of the way to avoid getting hit.
2. Use the cover:
There are several destructible rocks scattered around the arena. Use them as cover to protect yourself from Pal-1000's attacks. Keep in mind that the rocks can be destroyed by Pal-1000's projectiles and its body as it moves.
3. Attack its weak point:
Pal-1000's weak point is the glowing red core on its back. To expose the core, you need to break its outer armor. Shoot at the armor until it breaks, then focus your attacks on the exposed core.
4. Use the power-ups:
Throughout the fight, power-ups will appear on the screen. Collect these power-ups to enhance your weapons and abilities. The power-ups can give you increased fire rate, homing missiles, and temporary invincibility.
5. Be persistent:
Defeating Pal-1000 can be challenging and may take several attempts. Stay persistent, learn its attack patterns, and use the power-ups to your advantage. With enough practice and patience, you will eventually be able to defeat it.
Here are some additional tips that may be helpful:
- Try to predict where Pal-1000 will move and position yourself accordingly to avoid its attacks more easily.
- If you have trouble dodging its projectiles, try staying close to the walls of the arena. This will give you less space to maneuver, but it can also make it easier to predict where the projectiles will go.
- Use power-ups strategically. For example, you might use a temporary invincibility power-up to get close to Pal-1000 and attack its weak point without taking damage.
Remember, defeating Pal-1000 requires a combination of skill, patience, and good timing. Keep practicing and you'll eventually succeed!
