01 / THE GUIDE
Camera Flexibility Test
Start a run and deliberately switch between top‑down and TPS views during combat. Note how each perspective affects enemy targeting and movement, then decide which feels more effective for different scenarios.
- Try the top‑down view for crowd control, then switch to TPS for boss weak‑spot shots.
- Experiment with perspective changes to find which feels most comfortable for different enemy types.

Upgrade Prioritization
During a run, focus on gathering resources that unlock permanent upgrades. Compare runs where you prioritize upgrades versus runs where you prioritize weapon loot to see which yields longer survivability.
- Focus on unlocking permanent upgrades early to ease later runs.
- Collect as many weapons as possible; variety improves future loadouts.

Enter each biome and record the dominant enemy types and environmental hazards. Adjust your loadout between biomes to match these challenges, observing how tailored gear impacts your success.
- Observe enemy patterns unique to each biome before committing to a fight.
- Adjust your loadout to match the environmental threats of the current world.
