Major Update Ver 1.2.0 (Novice Mode + More Credits Earned)



Heli-Cats's second major update adds Novice Mode and increases the amount of user credits earned!

[h3]Novice Mode is an easier difficulty that is tuned for those new to shoot'em ups.[/h3]
Press up at Arcade Mode to select it. It is much easier than Arcade Mode and does not have a rank difficulty increase, but players still cannot sleepwalk their way through in the later missions. It cannot access Mission 9, secret items. nor qualify for the 1CC achievement. There is also no leaderboard for Novice Mode. Players can still earn credits for every mission cleared, although these missions won't show up in Training Mode. Only Arcade Mode mission clears count for those. Use it to learn the layout of the 8 main missions and enjoy the dual-elevation gameplay.

[h3]User credits earned has been increased based on difficulty.[/h3]
Players can earn more user credits based on the difficulty selected and ending attained. Endings A and B earn an additional 3 credits on Arcade and above, while endings C and D earn 5 more. Also, Another Mode doubles the amount of earned credits. Players should find the ramp up in earned credits helpful in pushing towards the higher difficulties. Together with Assisted 1CC, everyone can definitely get every objective in the game!

If you haven't played Heli-Cats in a while, give Novice Mode a go! And if you have it in your wishlist, perhaps it's time to get the game!
