Game & Instructions

 

        TITLE SCREEN

Press the 'Play' button to begin play.

Press the 'Help' button to receive a quick overview of how to play the game.

Press the 'Music On/Off' button to turn the music on or off.

 

 

        SELECT A GAME

Pressing the 'Play' button on the title screen will bring you to this screen.

There are 3 slots to choose from.  Select the slot you wish to use.  All game play will be saved to this slot so that the next time you play, you start where you left off from.

Each slot will show the current level you are on, all power ups you have collected, as well as the number of hostages you have saved (If the number is red, you haven't saved enough hostages to complete the level.  If the number is green, you have saved enough hostages to complete the level).  Difficulty refers to the difficulty level for that particular game.  It will only increment after completing the entire game, and will always increment one difficulty level at a time.  This means the game has infinite re-playability!

Press the 'Delete' button to delete any one of the games, but be careful - it will permanently delete that particular game so you'll have to start the game all over.

 

 

        OBJECTIVE

The object of the game is to rescue enough hostages for each level, then reach the end of that level for its final battle before advancing to the next level.  Each level requires a different number of hostages to rescue before you can advance to the next level.

Each level has a different structure that contain the hostages.  Shoot these structures until they explode to free the hostages.

 

Land the chopper on the ground to rescue the hostages.  Make sure to collect all of them before continuing to move east.

(You can see the hostage counter increment with each hostage collected.  The number will be in red if you still haven't rescued enough hostages to advance to the next level).

 

Keeping exploring the level to find more hostages to save.

You now have saved enough hostages to advance to the next level (notice the hostage count is in green).

Keep heading all the way to the east until you reach the final battle for each level!

Press the blue button on the left to drop a bomb.  Press the red button on the right to shoot in the direction the chopper is facing.  Note: You cannot bomb and shoot at the same time - only one at a time can be pressed.

In the upper left hand corner, you will find the "Menu" button.  Press this button to pause the game.  At the pause screen, you will have 3 options:

 

 

        POWER UPS

Life Capsule - collect these to increase your chopper's lifebar.
Auto Fire - collect this to auto fire - you can press and hold the red button to continuously fire.  (Note: If you have already acquired the Spread, then collecting the Auto Fire power up will disable the Spread).
Spread - collect this to shoot in multiple directions at once.  (Note: If you have already acquired Auto Fire, then collecting the Spread power up will disable Auto Fire).
Cloaking Shield - collect this to acquire the shield - you will see rotating spheres protecting your chopper.  Also, you will notice a second lifebar just below the chopper's lifebar.  This is the lifebar for the shield and you will continue to be protected until this lifebar is depleted.  (Note: Collecting a Life Capsule will not increase the shield's lifebar, but it will increase the chopper's lifebar).
Super Bomb - collect this to acquire the super bomb which, when dropped, will clear the screen of enemies (Note: Not all enemies are affected by the super bomb, e.g. bosses).  You only get 5 super bombs at any one time, so use them wisely.
