I misinterpreted, just ignore me. You can definitely keep the old saves, but any recipes or anything else will have to be rediscovered in the new game.
That's ok delve, I have made my fair share of booboo's and I was just putting the record straight :)

Sheesh, I fell like a prize idiot. I didn't right-click on the throne before. No bug, the game works fine. Unlike self. Very extra-red face.

We all make those sorts of mistakes.
You should see some of the idiot jobs I build at work sometimes, fortunately I usually catch them before they enter production.

 Now I'm getting my butt kicked by the throbbing laser beast; have yet to kill more than one before running out of all the good food. What can I say? I'm beginning to suspect getting through Mithalas cathedral is like running the Boston marathon with asthma, knee replacements and an eighty-pound backpack (for me, anyway, wuss that I am. My mouse finger is really sore. The avatar is definitely wishful thinking!). How do you guys do it? Maybe I'm too old for this.....

you'll think the laser beasts are quaint when your done the whole cathedral. focus on the beast and not the spawn, power up with spicy roll, soup and defense if you think it's warranted and spam away at the soft spot, rotating as much as you can with his lasers. they are really just a nice choreographed dance and warming you up for the main course  >:D

I'm beginning to wonder how I'm ever going to get through the cathedral without 40 bowls of turtle soup, 40 volcano rolls, 40 plump perogi, and four pets. Is there a way of bringing in your seed bag and a fish hatchery?

Are you using WASD (or arrows I guess) and mouse or just mouse? Being able to shoot in a direction other than the one you're moving really helps.

My strategy for the Mithala Cores:

As you're lighting up the eyes in the beginning you'll notice they're not evenly spaced. Try to get in one of the larger gaps when you open the final eyes. Once the initial spin of doom finishes up and the target emerges, charge up a shot and get a lock on the damage-able part. After that, ignore all spawns and swim in circles around him (closer you are to him easier it is to keep up with the damage-able spot) using boost when necessary to keep up.  Just keep peppering him with shots as fast as you can, normal uncharged shots are more efficient than charges. Afterwards it should drop some Health, pick that up and just clean up the spawns from the room (they also sometimes drop health).  Good luck and remember save crystals heal you.  :)

Good explaination see.blue, just one thing, look for a bed that also replenishes her health if she sleeps in it :D Once you have beaten those things once they do become easier even if they are still scary :o

Fortunately, once you defeat one it will never come back. So you should be able to restock those tough cakes if you need to. :)
