Your plane automatically flies up as the screen moves past you, and you shoot a steady stream of bullets automatically.

Players control the plane’s location on the screen by moving it around either with the arrow keys or the WASD keys.

Basic Gameplay Advice

The goal of the game is to survive as many waves of enemy attacks as you can. Each UFO you shoot down is worth 100 points, and boss battles that happen at the end of each stage are worth more.

Periodically helicopters fly across the screen. Grab the crates helicopters drop to enable multi-rocket shot. You retain your shot power up from level to level and keep it until you die.

This game gives you 5 lives, but you instantly die if you run into any other aircraft or get hit by a bullet.

Advanced Playing Tips & Strategy

To excel at this game you must collect the rocket power ups the helicopter drops, and avoid dying so that you activate mutlishot, enabling you to hit many ordinary enemies at once and allowing you to take quicker care of boss battles at the end of each wave.

Your movements are slower than the movements of UFOs, so you should prioritize survival more than shooting as many UFOs as you can.
