Getting Started with GG

Galactic Glitch has many secrets and hidden mechanics, that can discovered by experimenting and later (ab)used to make your build and runs the best possible. Here is a list of some of the game's important base mechanics, and how to get the most from them.

Glitch charges

You can use Glitch charges in many ways:

They can reroll any Power
They can cycle through Upgrade Protocols (red -> green -> blue -> etc)
They can buff normal heal items into stronger ones
They can be used to "glitch" the upgrade tokens too, but they will become very unstable...

Secrets

There are many secrets to find in GG:

In every early game level (before Behemoth Boss ) there is always one shop and one hidden room. Hidden rooms are always positioned off medium size rooms, and often on corners. Keep an eye out for a shimmering in the walls
Especially in the first level, it's important to keep an eye out for hidden rocks. You can tell these apart by their white shimmering, and also a small marking on the side of them. They are indestructible by normal damage, but can be broken by Glitch bombs

Creating a build

There are many options in GG when creating a strong build:

It's usually best to focus each run on one or two strengths and keep building on that: Boosting, Dodging, Close Combat, Shields, Rockets, Crates, of just massive burst damage, it's up to you which way to go
Choosing powers that synergize well, and sacrificing or rerolling powers that aren't is key to success in later levels
Also keep in mind to optimize your Upgrade Protocols for whatever type of build you go for

One of the most broken builds as of Patch 1.42

Void Prospector (gain shards by entering an enemy sector) +
Perfect Payout (get shards when you clear a sector without taking damage & change to double the payout the longer you keep clearing rooms without taking damage in succession) +
Profitable Power (get a damage increase for every 500 shards held)

Prototype doesn't matter. Just farm up to 10k shards and you can oneshot everything with the Void Dagger (as long as the level 3 buff from void prospector leaves them alive).

your not dumb...its just something the dev's wanted you to find when it was time... took me at least 30 play thru's before i figured it out... this game is really very well done ! i honestly have been playing it almost every day for almost a year and still not bored... i wanna add to this guide a lil. i have found a pretty nice lil exploit. if your using the green ship that leaves poison trails. circle around the back of the boss and then activate the boss from behind. your poison trails will still be there when the boss appears. you can sometime insta kill the boss if your buff with akimbo. but you'll get a few free hits at the least..

.. if you can get an all drones run with the green one, all ya gotta do is dodge around the room and let the drones do their thing... if ya manage to get the drones all the way upgraded they kill nearly the full room in a few seconds...i personally am really good with the throw, so for me i get the one that makes rockets from throwing stuff(5 rockets max'd) pair it with rockets for throwing enemies and also chance to spawn rockets when dodge, get that one max'd and you will be throwing tons of rockets thanks for the guide !
