Step-by-Step Guide
Gate Assault Begins
The level starts with an intense barrage. You'll face heavy enemy resistance from the gate's defense systems. Use the starting invincibility frames to position yourself at bottom-center and assess the threat.
First Elite Squad (25% Mark)
Three Elite Guardians appear in formation. They coordinate attacks and use complex bullet patterns. Target the center guardian first to break formation, then pick off the sides. Use a bomb if overwhelmed.
Gate Siege Phase
Between 30-60% progress, you'll fight waves of enemies while the gate itself shoots defensive barriers. Barriers block your bullets but not enemy shots. Wait for barriers to drop (3-second cycles) before attacking.
Second Elite Squad (60% Mark)
This squad uses rotating laser patterns. Stay on the outer edges of the screen and move clockwise. They take 8 hits each. Focus fire on one at a time rather than spreading damage.
Gate Core Exposure
At 75%, the gate partially opens, revealing its power core. Destroy the core while dealing with the third Elite Squad. This is the hardest part - prioritize dodging, attack when safe.
Final Push
After destroying the core, you have 30 seconds to escape through the collapsing gate. Auto-scrolling begins - avoid debris (brown objects) while fighting remaining enemies. Just survive!
Enemy Guide
Gate Defense Turret
(Stationary Heavy Weapon)Tips: Cannot be destroyed, they retract after 10 shots. Dodge their spread fire and wait for retraction. They appear on the gate's surface.
Elite Guardian
(Elite Fighter)Tips: High HP (8 hits), shoots complex patterns. Appears in squads of 3. Breaking formation is key - destroy one quickly to reduce synchronized attack pressure.
Fortress Defender
(Heavy Assault)Tips: Tankier enemies (5 hits) that shoot while moving. They try to ram you. Keep distance and kite them in circles while shooting.
Gate Power Core
(Objective Target)Tips: The gate's weak point. Exposed at 75% progress. Takes 30 hits but stops shooting barriers when damaged. Focus fire when safe.
Boss Battle Tips
- •The three Elite Squad encounters are the main challenge - save bombs for the second or third squad
- •Combo maintenance is crucial for the 100x objective. Don't let more than 2 seconds pass without kills
- •Gate barriers have audio cues (mechanical sound) 1 second before dropping - listen for optimal timing
- •During the escape sequence, prioritize survival. Lives remaining is an objective!
- •Power-ups drop frequently in this level. The shield power-up makes the final phase much easier
