    U must make it to wave 22 on evolved to reach 100,000 if max points are taken advantage of during the earlier waves. Between waves 1-5, let the missles split for max points. Guard your cities well and try not to lose any until wave 10. Do not waste ammo and pay no attention to the smart bombs. They only will destory 1 city per wave. Try and destroy the space ships upon spawn. This is key since they shoot a trio of missles late in the wave. The spaceships are your worst enemy At waves 16-22. Lay a battery of missles across the board from the furtherest missle pod at the same height as where the spaceships spawn. Then use the final 2 pods to only destory missles homing in on your city. Don't panic if down to 1 city. You will only have to succeed 2 waves at a time for a bonus city between waves 16-22. Again, do not waste ammo on missles that will not come close to hitting your last standing city. If a smart bomb looks like it is homing in after your last city, try and lay a mushroom of missles over it from the closest pod and use the same tactics just above the lower mushroom from 1 of the side pods to destroy it.

    MattiasAndersonGood guide but I doubt the first waves of saving ammo do much! It is more about not getting the cities destroyed in the later waves to get the points needed.

    125.000 and Wave 25!

    Here is how I did it!

    No just random shooting from left to right and so on! That was not working for me!

    Settings for control sensitivity one step to the right of the line of the bar. (One step to the right fromt he default settings).

    What I did was to start at the middle of the screen and quickly go for the ufo! Not starting at one end of the screen!

    And then I ALWAYS used the station that you use to shoot down the missiles with that were closest to the bullets on the screen. Because if you use the one that is far away it takes longer for the shot to land and it makes it much harder to hit the missiles and also it makes you loose time and focus.

    And another really good tip I can give is to pause after shooting the ufo! That way you can see were everything is on the screen except that it can be a bit hard to see behind all the text. Then you can refocus and plan your next move. Also you can see how much ammo you have left on each one if you do this again.

    Then target the purple smart bombs but only up to wave 16. After wave 17 I would not really go for them unless I found a good opportunity for it.

    Two bombs underneath it next to each other! Then one above it! And don´t look if you hit it or not! If you hit it, then that´s great. If not, well screw it!

    Also it is good to pay attention to lost causes of your stations! Lets say you see that one of the three is about to get destroyed. Then it can be smart to quickly use its ammo so it won´t go to waste. But I would also shoot with another one perhaps at the same time if the target are far away and needs to be taken care of quickly.

    Wave 17 was the toughest one for me! Somehow it was actually easier on wave 18 , 19 and so on!

    When there is two ufo´s showing up! Try to get the next one as soon as you can but just don´t leave the other bullets on the screen. When this happened I would lay a swarm of bullets in a row under the enemy missiles. Then quickly try to take care of the ufo with perhaps more than one bullet.

    Everything needs to be taken care of so quickly so this is not an easy task if you ask me! It took me a day of practice to finish this whole game which I consider great. I thought this game would be impossible for me to beat. Hopefully some of my advice will be of help!

    This achievement requires you to score 100,000.

    Make sure to set your sensitivity right for this. Start the game getting to wave 9 without losing a single city. At the beginning of wave 10, shoot the oncoming missiles from left to right on the left turret, continue doing this for the beginning of each wave, then go right to left for the next wave. If any missiles get past you, use the center turret to take them out. In order to deal with the Smart Bombs, you either hit it directly, or lay two missiles a little apart from each other on both sides of the Smart Bomb. Make sure to take out the spaceships as fast as possible. As you try and try, you will get to 100,000 points and it will unlock.
