- Take a short break after three or four failed runs. Arcade games punish tired eyes more than any other genre.
- Look one step ahead of your character. Reacting to what is under you is too late; reacting to what is coming is exactly on time.
- Because this is a Gun game, reload in quiet moments, never mid-wave.
- Because this is a Shooting game, aim before you fire, and fire in short bursts.
