: Do most people use the arcade layout and use left joystick for move and right for fire, or do you switch them, I tried both was and I still found myself moving in the direction I want to fire, and not firing it the correct direction.
I use two 8-way joys - arcade layout.
The game is very zen - don't over-think your moves.
With an extra man every 25k, the strategy is to pick up as many family members as possible as quickly as possible - then the strategy is to get the enemies to chase you and bunch up, then do an end-around while continuously firing at the bulk of the pack of enemies.
