This ship sounds finger-lickin' good!

I dunno if this is the fastest turnaround, considering lines at KFC being rather slow, but here's my video run:



I guess my biggest criticism might be that the Artillery needs to either be a Burst like the Flak or only fires 3 shots.
And maybe the starting guns are a bit too overpowered with their small breach chance.

Thank you so much for your feedback! I think reducing the artillery to 3 shots is probably a good idea. I will also look towards balancing the starting weapons a little more. Awesome video by the way!

Anything with two Dual Lasers is going to have a good start. Not sure about the finish though, but dual lasers... one of the best weapons ever, only matched by Advanced Flak (3 shots, 1 power, slight chance of not hitting what you aimed for)
So keep that in mind. Use the Shrike or the Carnelian as your limit. Everyone says those ships are the strongest in the game, so keep it around that mark.

haha KFC shuips! ROLF!

Watching the drumsticks slowly materialize in the end of the weapon as it charges is absolutely priceless. I'm glad this exists.

I finally hopped back on to see how my old creations are doing. Super glad to see everyone enjoying this silly little experiment of mine Love y'all
