General Info:
Meerca Chase 2 can be a difficult game, especially when aiming for the avatar.You need 1,250 points to get the avatar. Following this guide should help youachieve that score.
How to play:
In Meerca Chase 2 you control a Meerca who's only ambition in life is to collectneggs. To collect them, you must move around using the arrow keys. But not allneggs are good, the red neggs in particular. If you touch a red negg it's gameover. For each negg you collect (that isn't red) you will get a certain amountof points, pending the difficulty you select, what mode you select, and what colorthe negg you collected is. View the chart in the 'Negg Overview' section for moreinfo.
This is you!
Game play:
There are five modes you can select. Here is a breakdown of each mode:

Classic Mode - Classic Mode is a throwback to Meerca Chase 1. It's the same game,you move in 90 degree angles, and you collect neggs. There are no obstacles, exceptfor the walls. Touching the wall equals death. This can be a good mode for beginnersto just play around in, it will help you get a feel for the speed of the game.

Freestyle Mode - Freestyle Mode gives you the ability to move in a full 360 degrees.There are no obstacles, except for the boundary walls, which is exactly like ClassicMode. This is the mode everyone should practice on at least a few times before movingon to superextrahypergravitymode, which is explained later. Getting use to 360 degreemovement is one of the only things standing in your way to a sweet avatar, so practicein this mode on the hard difficulty.

Maze Mode - Maze Mode is exactly like Classic Mode, only with a maze in the middle ofthe screen. You move in 90 degree turns, and you can't touch the walls of the maze,unless you wish to perish! This is the least recommended mode for you to play in.There's just too much clutter, so it's diffcult ot build skill in this mode.

Ferocious Mode - Ferocious Mode gets the award for 'most unique'. It's a secret mode.To play in it, type 'ferociousneggsareontheloose', without the quotes in the main start screen (click in it first before you type the code). It pits youagainst red neggs.. that move! You move in 90 degree turns, all the while dodgingferocious red neggs that want to eat you. You automatically start on the medium difficulty when you type in this cheat. To play on easy or hard, click 'end game' while in game, then click the restart button. At the bottom left you'll see the ferocious mode, that's invisible. Just select the difficulty you want and play again. This mode is fun to play in, but definitelynot recommended if going for the avatar. If you're getting too frustrated, play inthis mode a few times, it's a good stress reliever.

Gravity Mode - Gravity Mode is the shortened version of a very long title, to saythe least. It's a secret mode. To play in it, type 'superextrahypergravitymode'without the quotes in the main start screen (click in it first before you type the code). There are no difficulties to be selected in this mode, and itis the mode in which you should go for the avatar score. You can move a full 360degrees, and there's a black hole in the middle of the screen. It sucks you in usingit's ultra powerful gravity abilities, so you have to avoid it. Falling into it will result in death, similar to collecting red neggs. Hitting the wall, or hitting your own tail will also cause you to die.

Here is a list of all the neggs and what they look like.

Game Strategy:
For purposes of going for the avatar, it's highly recommended that you playon the superextrahypergravitymode, called 'Gravity Mode' for short. Why?
Good things about Gravity Mode:

Every negg is worth more in Gravity Mode. Getting a fish negg in Gravity Mode almostgives you 3/4's of the needed 1250 avatar score. You can come to a stop in Gravity Mode. Technically, since you're being suckedinto the middle, you can never be at a complete stop. Stop means you nottouching the arrow keys in this instance. You can't stay stopped for verylong (or you'll hit your own tail and die) but this can be very useful. Stoppingcan help if you're getting overwhelmed, or if you want to switch directions fora better shot at the next negg. This is the single most important thing you haveto become familiar with. Mastering this will aid you greatly in getting theavatar, it just takes practice. There are many more uses in stopping that willbe explained later. Sometimes red neggs will spawn in the middle of the black hole, or not at all.This is a huge bonus, obviously, and it happens quite often. At times you'll havea tail of at least 9+ with no red neggs in your way. You can move a full 360 degrees, instead of just left, right, up and down.This allows more control and fluidity. Games flow quicker, since you can turn around to get neggs faster if you needto. This will make the game less frustrating, while giving you more chances toencounter a power or fish negg.

Bad things about Gravity Mode:

Sometimes the negg you need to continue your chain will spawn in the middleof the black hole, preventing you from continuing that round. It's not exactlyrare, either. Being able to move the full 360 degress is good, but it also gives you moreopportunities to hit your own tail.

Tips:
1. Don't Go Crazy
Meerca Chase 2 is really about consistency, in that you should spend minimaltime focusing on one game, and more on accepting that it's more important toplay this game in 'bulk'. Don't get too hung up on each game, or you'll driveyourself crazy. Stay focused, and just collect as many as you can each time.Eventually, one of those times will have a fish negg, and that will be yourwindow to achieve the avatar score. Fish negg games are the only time that youshould really, really focus on your every move.
2. Go Counter-Clockwise
If all things are equal and nothing is stacked, it's best to movecounter-clockwise around the circle. Well, assuming you have good keyboard-handettiquette. Going counter-clockwise allows all the turning (around the circle)to be done with your thumb or index finger. This allows more control and fluidity in your motions.So get used to going counter-clockwise.
3. Stop n' Go
When a negg spawns in any of the corners, there is an easy way of getting itwithout the risk of hitting a wall. Instead of being in motion constantly, tryedging up a little at a time, using a stop, go, stop, go method. Doing this willallow you better control, and almost prevent any chance of you touching theedges of the walls.
4. Spin When You're Stopped
Rotate when at a stop to give yourself the best angle to maneuver. This can beused in many situations. Here are a few screenshots to show you a few of thosesituations.
5. Stopping = Pwnage
You might notice that a lot of these tips involve stopping. It's important tosay again that stopping is your greatest ally in going for the avatar score.Master stopping, and it's almost guaranteed you'll get the avatar score.
6. Get Adjusted to the Pull of Gravity

Play Meerca Chase

Practice moving around the middle. The more you get used to the pull of the hole,the better the chance you have of getting your desired score.
7. No Zigging... or Zagging
Try to create a pattern with your movement when possible. Consistency is the key,don't zig zag unless there's a reason to.
8. You Don't Have to Collect the Neggs ASAP
It's important to remember that you can always slow things down. If you're havingproblems figuring out how you want to approach getting the next negg, you can alwayscreate a pattern to continuously move around until you've had enough time to think.
9. Short Tail Allows Recklessness
When you have a smaller tail (4 or less) you can be more free with your movement,because it's a lot harder, bordering impossible, to hit your tail.
Examples:
The examples below give you some tips on how to move in specific situations.
Example 1: Negg is close to the wall
In this example you've got a negg dangerously close to the wall. To safely grabthe negg, stop where the Meerca is in the screenshot, and slowly nudge your wayup to it by pressing the up key a couple of time (greenarrows). Stop nudging when you get it, and let the gravity pull you downa bit (pink arrow). When you're safely out ofdanger of hitting the wall, spin (either left or right) and continue to collectthe next negg (blue arrow).
Example 2: Negg is close to the wall and red negg
In this example you have a negg close to the wall and a red negg. Gettingthis negg is a lot like getting the negg in example 1. Stop where the Meerca isin the screenshot, and nudge your way up to the negg and collect it(green arrows). Rotate your Meerca as your falling(you don' have to fall quite as long as in example 1) and continue to collectyour next negg (pink arrow).
Example 3: Negg is close to the black hole
In this example you have a negg that is somewhat close to the black hole. To getthis negg, stop where the Meerca is in the screenshot, and let the gravity pullyou down (green arrow). Rotate as you're fallingpreparing for your exit, then as soon as you collect the negg get out andcontinue on to your next negg (pink arrow).
Example 4: Negg is very close to the black hole
In this example your negg is almost in the black hole. This one is tricky. It'sexecuted almost exactly the same as example 3. Stop moving where the Meerca isin the screen shot and let the gravity pull you down (green arrow). Rotate as you're falling, then just before you collect thenegg get out quick (pink arrow)!
The Phantom Orange Shirt Guy (TPOSH)
On the start screen, click the meerca's left eye for a surprise! 'Oh noes, is that The Phantom Orange Shirt Guy, or am I hallucinating?' Yes, you're hallucinating.
The apperance of TPOSG doesn't do anything, although some believe he will give you an increased chance of getting fish neggs. We believe it's just a TNT joke, but it won't hurt to try!
