01 / THE GUIDE

View‑Swap Timing

Record how long it takes to transition from RTS to FPS during an attack. Compare early versus late swaps to see which timing yields fewer turret losses.

  • Experiment with quick view swaps to keep pressure on enemies while your base upgrades.
  • Observe enemy patterns in RTS mode before engaging directly in FPS mode.

Tech Tree Path Comparison

Follow two distinct tech tree branches in separate playthroughs. Observe how each path changes your offensive firepower versus defensive resilience.

  • Focus on unlocking weapons that complement your preferred combat style.
  • Balance turret upgrades with weapon unlocks to avoid over‑specialization.

Mode Difficulty Contrast

Complete a level in standard, FPS‑Only, and RTS‑Only modes. Compare completion times and leaderboard rankings to gauge each mode’s challenge level.

  • Try FPS‑Only mode to focus on shooting skill before adding RTS responsibilities.
