Stations A large station with 8 modules spawns occasionally that moves across the map that can be destroyed for additional points.
Mines / Minefields Mines can be found from either the Sentinel or in large groups during a minefield event. Mines activate when the player nears and slowly tracks toward the player. Once close enough, it will activate it's timer and blow up. Contact with the mine will also blow it up.
New Enemy The sentinel drops mines from its back and circles the player
Background Objects During special events such as asteroids, minefields, and stations, background objects will appear. This can be disabled in settings
Backgrounds The background changes color after every 20 waves
Nebulas Nebulas are another unique event that spawn across the map making it hard to see when flying through
Higher Level Enemies At higher level threat levels, level 4 and 5 enemies can spawn with the unique ability to create holograms of themselves making it hard to distinguish the real enemy
Laser Rework The laser no longer passes through enemies. It now uses ray casts and will quickly drain health based on how much of the laser is on the enemy.
Enemy Follower Changes Multiple enemy types can follow each other rather than 3 of one type.
