THE RUN
▸ Clear a wave, pick ONE UPGRADE from three. 1-3 picks, R rerolls.
▸ HULL ♥ is your life. SHIELD ⬡ soaks hits first — it does NOT regrow on its own, refill it with ⬡ drops or the SIPHON upgrade.
▸ Wrecks drop loot: ★ score · ⬡ shield · ♥ hull · ⚡ overdrive · ⏳ time warp · 🧲 magnet · ☢ screen nuke.
▸ Every 5th wave is a BOSS. Learn the tells — red lines mean a shot is coming.
SURVIVAL TIPS
▸ Chain kills fast to build a COMBO — up to 10× score and it powers your streak bonuses.
▸ Dash has i-frames. Dash through bullet walls, not around them.
▸ Pick upgrades that stack. Three levels of one beats one level of three.
