Bombing Run

Overview
Bombing Run takes away your guns and replaces them with an enhanced bomb system. It also changes the Combo powered Bomb for a Shield which will protect you against one hit.

How To Play
This mode is the most different to all the others. You must touch the red pads to arm your "Super Bomb" and you then have 10 seconds to get to the Green "Detonation" pad. If you don't make it in time the bomb will explode killing you and using up a life (you get 3).

Instead of gaining a bomb when your combo meter hits 10X you now gain a shield. The shield will automatically trigger when you get hit knocking nearby enemies away. It can also be triggered with the Drop Bomb key in case you need to clear some space. Unlike bombs the shield does not expire when your combo ends.

Tactics

 * If you don't arm a bomb you won't explode. Take a moment after detonating a bomb to let the enemies build back up for larger combos.
 * Whenever you touch a pad in this mode it knocks away nearby enemies just like your shield.
 * If a pad looks impossible to reach look out for an alternate. After you've been playing for a while more than one detonation pad will spawn.
