How to approach it
The night opens at wave 2 with 14 enemies arriving in 3 groups. The first group is 5 darts coming in on a low sweep from the side. There are no armoured hexagons in this wave. No raiders cross the screen. 1 enemy drops a capsule: 1 × rapid fire. On Normal you have three lives and one shield charge.
- An early wave with no heavy enemies: practise shooting groups along their entry curve.
- Stay low and to one side while the groups fly in, then work across the formation from that side.
