Tips and tricks
- Headshots, weak points and combo multipliers are where high scores live; once survival is comfortable, start hunting for them.
- Move between shots. Many shooters make you an easy target only when you stand in one place.
- Prioritise the threat that will hurt you soonest, not the one that is closest or biggest. Fast enemies before slow ones, shooters before melee.
- Sound tells you where an enemy is before you can see it. Headphones help more than you would expect.
- Because this is a Arcade game, restart early when a run goes wrong instead of grinding out a poor score.
