A small practice goal

Take enough time to read a new position. If a game has a timer, learn its controls first rather than searching for them during the round. Use the example to check your reasoning.

What counts as success

Clear five enemy waves before losing three lives. Read that aim before choosing your first action. Take a moment to understand the current position.

Making your moves

  1. Start and steer.
  2. Hold Fire.
  3. Avoid enemy projectiles.
  4. Clear the final tougher wave to win.

How your actions work

Pointer/arrow movement and held Fire. Start / pause and New round are available. On a smaller screen, keep the active part of the board within view. Use the visible help when you are unsure of the next input.

Follow the example

Move sideways between incoming shots. Use the example as a guide rather than a substitute for reading your board. Check the stated objective.

Avoid this misunderstanding

Post-hit protection is temporary. Check the rule before repeating the action. Keep the stated aim separate from side details such as animation or appearance. Progress is measured by the game’s own completion or scoring rules.
