Boomerang



The Boomerang is a unique energy weapon that can be used to great effect depending upon what enemy type it is used against. The Boomerang cuts through waves of smaller enemies, while against larger foes, it will 'lodge' in them and deal damage for a few frames before returning back. One of the Boomerang's shortcomings is it's long reload time. However, this can be mitigated by 'catching' (touching the projectile with your ship) it as it flies to the back of the screen, which will reset it's cooldown completely.
