Synopsis

You pilot a spaceship at the bottom of the screen, facing upwards, and shoot groups of aliens. You can move vertically and horizontally while shooting. At regular intervals, an alien emerges from the main group and rushes towards you. Other levels feature asteroids that fragment when shot at, or a single "boss" alien. Green-eyed aliens drop power-ups, like upgraded weapons, shields, and bombs. You only have one life to survive this carnage. You earn points by surviving as much as by scoring points; so a slow and careful approach is more rewarding.
