Galaxy Zero Cheats: Tips & Tricks to Master All Stages

Galaxy Zero is a brand new, action packed, top down SHMUP that has just been made available for the iPhone and iPad. It comes with a multitude of missions, upgrades for your ships and even the ability to bring in your friends to battle bosses so it is, in other words, a pretty amazing product. But we’re here with different business: we’re here to share with you some Galaxy Zero cheats and tips that will help you master all stages and get the best possible ship in the galaxy.

So if you’re starting to have problems beating a specific stage or you simply want to improve your game, read on for TTP’s Galaxy Zero tips and tricks!

1. Fly at the bottom
There are rarely any reasons for you to fly your ship anywhere else than the bottom of the screen (other than when avoiding incoming fire) so get used to be there and always on the move: swipe to the left and right continuously to improve your chances of hitting the incoming ships.

2. Connect with Facebook
Binding the game to your Facebook account will give you some great advantages in Galaxy Zero: extra gold and goodies, including a brand new weapon (missiles) that will prove extremely useful in your quest to destroy your enemies.

3. Get more energy cheat
We received reports that a cheat to get more energy might work in Galaxy Zero. Known as the “time lapse cheat,” it involves quitting the game when your energy reaches zero, then going to the settings of your device and setting time forward for the amount required to fill up your energy. Try it and see if it works!

4. Upgrade everything you’ve got
You won’t start with flawless equipment, but the good thing about it is that it can be upgraded and then evolved and early on you won’t lack any materials. However, I’d suggest focusing on one at a time – and start with the Armor because that’s the one you’ll find more difficult to replace and it’s also really useful. Once you manage to max out your weapons and ship, you can Advance them if you have the required materials. Again, early on you will be collecting a lot of those and you should have the ones for the Armor at least without a problem.

5. Complete the Daily Missions
Every day, you will be challenged to do a series of tasks that you might be doing anyway in the game. But check out the requirements and try to complete them for a bunch of extra rewards.

6. Check out the Store
There are a few hidden gems in the store, including the “Other” category where you can purchase Experience Crystal Lvl 1 for just 510 coins (and each gives you 8,800 XP!). You can also buy specific equipment for there, go for the crates if you have enough Crystals or take advantage of any Packages you might have active.

7. Focus on the Campaign
Play the campaign and nothing but the Campaign for as long as you can (until you hit the first wall and enemies are too strong for you). When you get there, experience with the Endless, but especially the Boss mode which give you better rewards. You can even bring friends in these modes to help you, so it wouldn’t hurt to add at least one (you can’t pick random ones like in other games).

8. Replay stages
In order to get a ton more resources, replay stages that you have already completed. Check out their special drops to see what are the top goodies you can get and play according to your needs. The Red Skull stages can be played only a limited number of times per day, but they offer great rewards so you should focus on those first, and then on the regular missions. Invest what you earn in upgrading your Fighter and Equipment, rinse and repeat and you’re on the right track to victory!

9. Learn the patterns
All ships, including the bosses, have some firing patterns that you should try to learn and anticipate. Eventually, it will get really easy for you to avoid the incoming fire by placing your Fighter in the safe areas – and each boss has at least one. Just pay attention to the patterns and work on getting there!
