This is a shareware vertical-scrolling space shooter, well-riveted by a team from the city of Idaho Falls, which is sometimes included in the lists of "best places to live" in US guidebooks. From the introductory video, the following becomes known. The year is 2265; suddenly, a sphere appears near our planet, from which an armada of an alien space fleet flies out. After that, the planetary defense council sends us a letter with a proposal to go on reconnaissance in force. In the gameplay there are a lot of levels, enemies (both flying and turrets), weapons, secrets (pierceable structures), small and large bosses. On the screen there are sensors with the state of the space fighter, armor, distance traveled and other useful information. Management is standard: arrows - movement, space - shooting, when you press escape, you immediately exit to DOS. Q, W, O, P are also involved - the choice of special weapons and the ability to combine them. But here you need to be careful, because protective energy can be spent - the same one that is consumed when hit by enemy projectiles, collisions with enemies, structures and landscape. When its stock is depleted, our aircraft explodes. The game has excellent tracker music and intelligent voice acting, available for a number of sound cards. In terms of graphics, the developers also did not let us down. In view of the foregoing, I can recommend this thing to all connoisseurs of vertical space shooters. |
