they made it so Spread was the best choice almost alway, i recall a boss for which Laser was best, using memories from 35 yeats ago tho
I too, am older than 35 yeets
Is that like those two yoots?
But they said yeats...
And what rough beast, its hour come round at last,
Slouches towards Bethlehem to be born?
Well, obviously, it was a typo. No one is 2,555 years old.

"Flamethrower" (the wavy path ball gun) is perfect for a couple parts of the game where you can lay down. You fire and ever shot hits, and you are never in the path of enemy bullets or mobs.
Does it do this better than the spread? I'm trying to think of what part of the game this advice would work...
In very narrow cases, yes. If I remember, spread has a specific rate of fire which is fairly slow compared to flamethrower, so you can clear very specific targets faster with flamethower. Again, 99% of the time Spread is going to be better.
MUSHA has this with the orb circle shield/weapon thing (I never learned the name). I used to think this was bad game design but even if it was an accident it's interesting trying to bend your way around a game to keep from picking up stuff you dont want.
MUSHA has a killer soundtrack.
