Difficulty Modes

The game has 2 game modes:

  • Standard: The usual experience.
  • Lucid: Special game mode where shot is boosted at all times. Unlocked by beating Extra once.

The game has 2 game modes and 4 difficulty modes. The higher difficulties are, of course, harder, and also have higher scoring potential. The difficulty modes are:
