I've seen a lot of issues about information not being readily available to the player. Part of it that information isn't presented, part of it is that the information is lost in a slew of other information. It seems that some loading screen tips would be useful. So when you start a new game, in the bottom middle of the screen you get a tip with a little graphic displaying it.
Tip List
- Enemy ships getting to close? You can sprint away by using button Y.
- Chests contain loot such as missiles, keycards, and potatoes.
- Locked Chests need a keycard to open but contain much better loot than regular Chests. You can find Primary Weapons, Secondary Weapons, and brownies.
- Caltrops are the bane of soft soled robots everywhere, don't forget you are invulnerable after taking damage, so just sprint over those guys.
- Missiles can block and destroy enemy shots.
- Energy Weapons recharge every room, go crazy.
- Your shields recharge every room, live a little.
- Maximum useable shields are limited to 2, but you can use the extras to buy upgrades and still have 2 afterwards
- Blaze Turrets suck, email Misery about why you hate him and his little dog.
- The Invader is the best boss ever!
- There is no shame in playing on a lesser difficulty. Normal is actually pretty Hard.
- Don't tell anyone, but some of the devs play on Very Easy and still can't win.
- Some people like keyboard and Mouse control, others like a gamepad. See which one fits you best!
- Sometimes bullets aren't the answer. Try missiles!
- Sometimes bullets aren't the answer. Try using more bullets
- Ever feel like a piece of cheese?
- You can practice fighting bosses and minibosses using the Mod Mode.
- Rodney needs to get off his robot $$$ and do something useful for a change.
- Every wonder what happens to all of those dead robots you have left behind?
- Enemy Spawners are immune to bullets, but can be destroyed by missiles.
- Unbreakables are immune to bullets, but can be destroyed by missiles.
- Special unbreakables contain a surprise, go get them!
- Collect 8 health shards and gain an extra hit point!
- Eat 6 servings of vegetables per day!
- Don't forget to eat enough fiber, a clean colon is a healthy colon.
- How does the Hydraal know when to send a new mech in?
- What happens if the Hydraal regrows the head off that was put into the mech AND that mech comes back safely. That's going to be awkward.
- Why hasn't the Hydraal cloned himself yet?
- Want a relaxing puzzle game? Try Tidalis. At least try it on the relaxing game modes, it gets tough later on.
- Don't shoot Space Janitors, Cooks, or SysOps. You never know if they have decades of elite combat training.
And so on.

The funny thing is, I actually do have a little dog.
