Six bosses, all their own beast. Every boss level now brings a completely different foe — a star Mothership, a swarming Hive, a broadside Dreadnought, a spinning Crystalline, a chaotic Leviathan, and the relentless Warlord. Each has its own look, color phases, movement, and attack patterns — and they react when you hit them, with recoils and shockwaves as they shift gears. A livelier soundtrack. Out with the ambient wallpaper, in with a real groove — driving bass, drums, and melodies across three tracks that build in energy. Music's on by default now (mute is one tap away). A cleaner, sharper HUD. Score sits up top under the dynamic island, with your level, combo, and controls tucked into the corners. Survival stats are grouped where you can find them, the health bar now shows how much you've got and how much you've lost, and big combos light up with escalating flair. Power-ups you can actually read. Every power-up has a custom illustrated icon now — in the game, the HUD, and the help screen — no more guessing what "T" or "B" meant. And if you clear a level mid-pickup, the power-ups politely freeze in place instead of drifting off. A pause that pulls its weight. The pause menu got a glassy redesign and now shows a full snapshot of your run — level, score, aliens destroyed, lives, best combo, and weapon status. Menu glow-up. Tappable difficulty dials, a bigger barrel-rolling ship preview, a Dusk theme by default, and a title that's alive — give it a tap. Stick around the menu long enough and you might spot a visitor. Feel every hit. Tuned haptics across the board — a gentle tap for each kill, a firm jolt when you're hit, and the full rumble when your ship goes down. Smoother runs. Beat a boss and the level's yours — no more chasing stragglers. Your ship can climb higher up the screen, bosses press closer on the tougher levels, and difficulty now starts at Medium.
