How to approach it
The night opens at wave 3 with 20 enemies arriving in 4 groups. The first group is 5 orbs coming in on a looping path. There are no armoured hexagons in this wave. No raiders cross the screen. 4 enemies drop capsules: 2 × spread shot, 1 × rapid fire and 1 × shield. On Normal you have three lives and one shield charge.
- Several capsules fall here; a spread shot makes the rest of the wave much quicker.
- Stay low and to one side while the groups fly in, then work across the formation from that side.
