Playing a ton of Guxt lately. Finally made it to level 4...hey! Stop laughing!
Now I really feel silly for not intently reading all the posts about Guxt earlier in the thread, since I'm just now figuring stuff out like the how to get the sheild items, the item giving you points the sooner you grab them, etc. Oh well, I guess finding out some of the secrets for myself is actually making the game that much more enjoyable. It's been ages since I game really surprised me, what with all the walkthroughs cheats, and other such things the internet brings.
