Tips and tricks
- Prioritise the threat that will hurt you soonest, not the one that is closest or biggest. Fast enemies before slow ones, shooters before melee.
- Move between shots. Many shooters make you an easy target only when you stand in one place.
- Aim first, then shoot. Spraying costs time or ammo and rarely helps; a single well-placed shot almost always beats three rushed ones.
- Keep your cursor or crosshair roughly where enemies appear, not on the spot where the last one died.
- Because this is a Hypercasual game, find the rhythm of the single mechanic — that is the entire skill.
