How to play
Your objective is to pilot a powerful fighter plane through seven stages of enemy forces, destroying everything in your path to achieve a high score. You control your aircraft with a joystick, moving in eight directions while a fire button unleashes your main weapon. Collect power-up icons left by destroyed carriers to enhance your firepower, adding options for multi-directional shots or increasing your main weapon's spread. A special loop maneuver button allows you to quickly flip your plane, temporarily making you invincible and destroying all on-screen bullets, which is crucial for escaping tight situations. The game's challenge comes from dense enemy formations and bullet patterns. Early on, focus on collecting power-ups to build a strong offense. In the middle stages, learn enemy attack patterns and use your loop maneuver strategically to clear the screen rather than wasting it. During tense boss fights, prioritize dodging over dealing damage, waiting for safe openings to attack.
