I don't buy anything until level 7. After that, I buy Ice Cub, which is really OP for its level. After that, I get Ice Shotgun and use it on Housebreaker's Phase 2. Then I get Neon Sword / Light Saber, then Dark Wound, then Light Gun, then Solar Collapse, then Bekker's Fury for fire hawks, then Rocket Launcher for skeleton boss (Optional, sometimes I don't.). You definitely should use Life Force Potion while fighthing Skeleton Boss.



By level 7, you have 87 skill points to spend in total. What I do is I would use the first 12 skill points I get on HP, defense and 1 point on strength since every melee weapon uses 1 less energy. After I'm level 7, I use my remaining 75 points on flight. Then I unlock Dash, upgrade my HP & Defense a little bit, get my Strength to 26, then I get Dash to 3, then I cycle between HP, Defense and Strength.


In the first 7-8 waves, since I don't buy anything, I use my pike on most enemies, but when a Red-Eye Spider comes, I kill it with pistol.

After the first half ends, mages become a problem. I mostly focus on them and use the Ice Cub I bought or a High-end Sword like Solar Collapse.

There are 2 enemies that I didn't even mention in the Enemies section, Green Slugs and Archer Skeletons (Again, not official names.) They're really easy to kill. Just don't stand in front of them, kill them while in air and they can't throw their projectiles to you.

I attack Housebreaker with Ice Cub on phase 1, and dash underneath him whenever he jumps. Then I distance from the Boss on phase 2, fire Ice Shotgun on it till it dies.

I use Life Force Potion while fighthing Skeleton Boss, I use Solar Collapse, Bekker's Fury, Rocket Launcher or Light Gun to kill it.

Thanks for reading my guide! It's the first guide I made and I am aware it isn't complete, I may complete it sometime, I appreciate any comment on it, since feedback is essential for improvement. I'd love it if you vote the guide.
