Kongregate Badge of the Day: Phase 2: ?

The Kongregate Badge of the Day for Friday, August 19, 2011 is the Phase 2: ? Badge. This is a medium rated badge for the game LARRY and the GNOMES. To get the badge you have to beat level 8 (i.e. the 2nd boss, end of Act II).  For getting this Badge of the Day you get 17 Gamestop PowerUp Reward Points.

I played this game on easy to get the badge.  Overall I found it very easy.  Just wildly attack hitting S over and over was pretty much my strategy.  Also, keep checking the weapons dropped and keep the one that does the most damage.

The only hard part for me was beating level 8.  It took me a while to figure out what to do and even then I kept messing up and getting hit.  Finally, after about 10 tries I beat him.

The strategy I used for beating the second boss was from the tips posted on the comments on Kongregate.  Get rid of any weapon you have, as you will need to grab spears.  Go to the top or bottom of screen.  When the ground starts to rumble, go to the opposite (i.e. from bottom go to top or from top go to bottom).  Then go right or left as the boss goes by, so the spear does not hurt you, although if you are good at avoiding the boss' other attacks this is very minimal damage to worry about.  Pick up the spear (E).  Now face towards where the boss is coming from and as he gets near throw the spear at him (D).  This will stun him and you can attack him wildly with S for a few seconds.  When the animal goes up on two legs get ready to jump.  You can do damage while it is up on two legs, just make sure you remember to jump right before his legs hit the ground, as the pound can hurt you even if you are far away from him, but it cannot if you are in the air even next to him.  Repeat until he is beat.

As always if you already have the badge, just go to the game and you will be awarded the extra points and PowerUp Reward Points.

Comment if you have any if you have any other tips to help others get today's badge to help out those having trouble. Also, feel free to ask questions if you need help and I will try to help you out.
