Getting through the early waves
Step
You start with a basic weapon, and that is fine for the first few rounds. Each time you unlock a new weapon, try it right away rather than sticking with whatever you had.
- Attack enemies and defeat them to level up
- Switch when you unlock the moment a new weapon is available, give it a go
When the waves get too hard
Check
Enemies scale up continuously, so there will be a point where your current weapon stops keeping pace. Switching to co-op is also a genuine option — more players means more damage hitting enemies at the same time, which can carry you through rounds that feel impossible alone.
- Tried every weapon you have unlocked so far
- Switched to the weapon that deals more damage or attacks faster
- Maintained some distance from enemies rather than getting too close
- Considered joining or starting a co-op session to add teammates' damage to yours
Solo vs. co-op
Table
Both modes use the same core mechanics. Solo has fewer enemies per round, which gives you a more stable experience. Co-op brings up to four players together, and with that many people attacking at once you can defeat enemies more quickly and reach higher round numbers.
| Enemy count | fewer in solo, more in co-op |
| Stability | solo is more stable |
| Pushing high rounds | easier in co-op because combined damage is higher |
| Player count | solo is one player; co-op supports up to four |

Common questions
FAQHow many players can play together?
Up to four players can play in co-op. You can also play entirely alone if you prefer.
What should I do when I can't get past a certain wave?
Try all the weapons you have unlocked, checking for differences in damage and attack speed. If that does not help, switching to co-op adds teammates' firepower to yours, which can make a stuck wave manageable.
