Ok, guys, this may be a slight spoiler, I'm not sure who's worked all these out yet, but I haven't seen anything on them, and I just did some experimentation and worked them all out, at least I think this is all of them, if not please say so.
Now, if you don't know what this is refering to, and this may be a slight spoiler, but when you get your first transformation, you can shoot. The game tells you how to do normal blasts, and a powered up blast, however there's two hidden shots that are more powerful, and thats what I'm going to explain, so here goes starting with the weakest.
1) Your normal shot, just click the right mouse button, click rapidly to fire fast.
2) More powerful charge shot, 3 way blast. This takes a while to power up, and often you'll find you can finish stuff of quicker with a bunch of little shots, however it's needed for the two more powerful shots. Simply hold the left mouse button for a while and then let go, the game explains this.
3) First "hidden" shot. Can be done in two ways. First way is to charge up a shot. Then grip onto a wall by boosting into it, now, boost away from the wall and release your charge shot, you'll shoot a more powerful 4 way blast. This is very easy to do, but requires a wall.
Now, there's another way to do this that I worked out a short while ago. You'll notice if you boost with the left mouse button, and then click the left mouse button again while boosting, your character will do a little spin. So, all you have to do, is charge up a shot, then click left mouse button, then while boosting click it again, character will spin, while spinning, release charge shot, easy and doesn't require a wall.
4) The most powerful shot I've found, very pretty! This does however require a wall, and combines the two shots above. First charge a shot. Now grip a wall, and then boost off it. While in the wall boost, click the left button to do a spin as you do in the second method of the first hidden shot, and release the fire button. This will result in a very nice 6 way blast. So just saying that again, charge a shot, boost of a wall, click left button while in boost to spin, and release right to fire of 6 way blast. Make sure you do your spin with the left click a little after your boost starts, like half a second, otherwise it won't do the spin.
Hope that helps, please tell me if you know of any other shots like these, and please say if you found this helpful, or you know, not helpful :)

Dude, awesome! Thanks for the guide!

This is awesome! Thank you. (^_^)

Thanks too. I noticed the 4 blast shot but wasn't able to figure out how I did it until now. :)
-
haha glad you found it useful :)
i'm wondering if anyone has managed to find any other little moves like these? Also, maybe this should be moved to gameplay board now that that's been added?

Nice find! I was very tempted not to read it, but I did, and I didn't have a clue about the 6-shot. I'd figured out the 4, but... wow. Cool stuff. And I honestly doubt I'd have figured this out on my own, so I don't feel too bad. ;)

Thanks for the guide, will try this out!

Just wait, an admin will come in and say there's a way to fire an 8-shot blast.

If this will happen, he absolutely won't tell how to do it... ;P

But if he did, even if there was no way to do an 8-shot blast, it would drive you people mad searching for it.
