Publisher: Mars · Developer: Mars

It's a typical vertically-scrolling game, like Goldrunner and many others. Your objective is to shoot anything that moves and bomb whatever doesn't, while avoiding being destroyed yourself. You face 3 different enemies types in the game: Planes, ground targets (stationary and moving) and missiles. When engaging air targets, pressing the joystick button will fire your guns. When over land targets the button will drop bombs. Dodge and weave to avoid the enemy missiles, you can't destroy them. Your bomber's guns fire continuous bursts that are very effective against enemy aircraft. The enemy planes don't fire back, but when hit the enemy planes will explode and their debris will advance down the screen. If the pieces hit you they can destroy your bomber. When approaching a land target, a targeting sight will appear in front of your bomber. Use the sight to aim your bombs, then once over a target press the joystick button.
