*After upgrading magnetism to 150 range* *sees next upgrade: Infinite Range* Wow. Rarely do you find such shooter games (with enemies that drop coins that is collected by moving over them) with an upgrade like "infinite range". :O Usually at best the collecting range diameter is about the length of a pinky.

Tip for last boss:
Fire off all your zeros the moment you can. While it seems to have no effect, it makes each piece easier to kill.
