Waves
Start from any wave you've already reached (with 3 lives). The crown marks the bosses. Below each number, your best score for that wave.
The Paparazzi
- Minicam (5 pts): small and jittery. Fires flashes in a straight line.
- Reflex (10 pts): the most common. When it dives, it aims before it fires.
- Telephoto (15 pts): faster flashes. From wave 9 on, it absorbs two hits.
- Flash burst (20 pts): dives down with an escort and drops volleys of three flashes.
- Gossip Blimp (50–150 pts): crosses overhead now and then and always drops a bonus.
Shooting a camera while it dives is worth ×1.5. The fewer that remain, the faster they flee.
Power-ups and barriers
- Double shot for 12 seconds.
- Shield: a bubble that absorbs one hit (lasts 15 s).
- Slow motion: drones and flashes slow to half speed for 7 s.
- Confetti bomb: clears all the flashes and hits the lowest drone in each column and the ones diving down.
- Photocall barriers: they shield you, but break with every hit (including yours). They are repaired when you defeat a boss.
Scoring
- +Wave cleared: 20 + 5 based on the wave number, and +25 if you don't lose a single life.
- ♛Bosses on waves 5, 10, 15 and 20: 200, 300, 400 and 500 points. Each boss you defeat gives you an extra life (maximum 5).
- 3Lives: you lose one if a flash hits you, if a camera rams you, or if the formation reaches the red carpet.
When you run out of lives, or when you click End game and save, your points go to the Arena. A good game usually scores around 1,500–4,000 points; completing all 20 waves earns a lot more.
