How to approach it
The night opens at wave 9 with 28 enemies arriving in 6 groups. The first group is 4 darts coming in on a looping path. There are no armoured hexagons in this wave. 5 raiders cross the screen without joining the formation. 1 enemy drops a capsule: 1 × rapid fire. On Normal you have three lives and one shield charge.
- Raiders weave across the middle of the screen; shoot them from the side they enter rather than chasing them.
- A wave this size takes a while to clear — keep drifting so the orbs never get a still target.
