You pilot a shuttle in an intriguing world, rendered in vector 3D, made up of small islands floating in space. These are surrounded by barriers and gridlocked with defense turrets, tanks, and squadrons of flying ships; all heavily armed and united against you. Your mission in two words: blast everything!
Your craft is equipped with retractable wings, allowing you to fly to the isolated islands. Later, other goodies will be added to your arsenal: a radar, missiles, and countermeasure beacons (“F1” to “F5” for using special commands). The downside is that you’ve seen it all by the end of level 1. The monotony and lack of passwords quickly defeated my curiosity.
