How to approach it
The night opens at wave 6 with 26 enemies arriving in 5 groups. The first group is 6 orbs coming in on a looping path. There are no armoured hexagons in this wave. No raiders cross the screen. 3 enemies drop capsules: 2 × spread shot and 1 × shield. On Easy you have five lives, two shield charges and slower enemy fire.
- A wave this size takes a while to clear — keep drifting so the orbs never get a still target.
- Several capsules fall here; a spread shot makes the rest of the wave much quicker.
