I just realized that you need to kill the keepers before they go off-screen to save the humans. I was wondering for the longest time why they kept dying in their boxes.

I'm in the same boat, Nemesis is by far the best ship to stay alive before boss battles. Homing missiles are great.
Boss damage kinda blows, but once you get a good strat for each one, it's becomes pretty easy.
I'm sorry, I don't understand these words together like this.

Amazing game, worth the purchase of a PS4 alone. Wish it had a tutorial, kind of just throws you in without any knowledge of game mechanics but I guess that gels with the old school vibe.
On the third level and still don't know where my boost meter or overdrive meter are haha?
Little help anybody?

Damnit, I was raging because humans kept dying without me missing keepers and I was trying to figure out how I missed saving them haha.

Thanks for the help a little bit ago. I'm starting to notice the visual cues a bit more. Just finished the second level. So fun.
Okay here are a few tips!
Keepers glow green and usually show a path - make sure you kill them ALL asap or a human will die.
If you die while carrying a human the human will die. You can save the human by throwing them with L2.
When a human drops - a green arrow right underneath your ship will indicate where they are!
Make sure and pick up humans ASAP once they are released from the cage. When it says human in danger by then they are usually being abducted by a ship.

The fact the games just dumps you into another play session is deliciously evil too.

haha same here. I'm glad I saw that b/c I never would have thought some humans were tied to multiplier.

So is there no indicator for how much boost and overdrive you have? Is the announcer's voice the only indicator?
The circle surrounding your ship. Top semicircle = boost, bottom semicircle = OD.
The indicator are the circular bars that surround your ship. The top, blue half-circle represents boost. The bottom, green half-circle represents Overdrive.

Is there any reason why my Resogun won't start? I downloaded it and installed it and when I try to play it, it just goes to a black screen with the Resogun ship icon in the corner and doesn't do anything else. I can just close the application through the PS button, so its not the system being frozen or anything...
Is there maybe a PSN problem and since this is a free game it has to "check" to see I have PS+ or something?

So uh. Humans keep dying in their cubes. Is there something special I'm supposed to do to summon that green beam that breaks them out?

Throwing human while in full boost is the best part of the game to me. They can clear a huge distance and you can just dump them off fast to grab more people.
I think they can be killed by enemies if you don't get to them fast enough, but I don't know what that timing is. They can also die in their cubes (which are airtight) if not released in time.
You can also kill them yourself if you're not careful. I saw one preview video where someone tried "throwing" one of them into the tractor beam, but he missed, and the human fell into the liquid and died instantly. Whoops.. hehe.
I've also seen some enemy ships come and try and pick them up.
Game is great, wish I was better at it.

I dont think the green arrow always shows, and at least in my experience theres been a few times where they fall out the box and nothing is mentioned, unless im picking them up too fast.
In any event really great game helping me get through this weekend with no other game with me.

Yea this game is amazing. Tons of fun.
Took me a while to figure out how to play because it just dumps you in there but once you get it it's great. Bosses rule. God damn keepers are a pain to stay on top of all the time.
I like the speaker in the controller feature too. Very cool stuff.
Gonna be insanely hard on the highest difficulty

Do the harder difficulties contain more levels? I beat it on Rookie in less than an hour, I was kind of hoping for more content 
LOVE this game. For those wondering about meters, here's what I've learned:
- Boost meter is the top semi circle over your ship. It constantly charges up, and while it charges it is lit up while the meter is filling. When it is full it stops glowing/goes a bit dark. You can only boost when it is full, but you can use a lot or a little, meaning you can boost more frequently using shorter bursts.
- If you hit enemies while boosting, you get a bit more boost, prolonging the duration.
-The overdrive meter is the bottom semi circle. It charges by gathering the green bits that float around from enemy explosions. Again, overdrive can only be used when the meter is full, but it goes through the whole thing once you engage it.
(Also: Use boost and throw human (L2) to really fling the little dudes around - they can go around the edge of the cylinder practically using this.)

Definitely try it on an actual difficulty now haha
I know, I love me some great audio and bass, but it's SO deep and loud that it vibrates the living room and scares my cat away.

The game's roughly structured like an arcade game. The 1cc trophy is where I'd draw the "beaten" line.

This is helpful. I wasn't exactly clear on the benefits of boosting. I didn't realize you got more meter by hitting enemies. Not a lot I take it though.
Awesome, thanks.

That's a good point. I hope they patch in that option.
