How
to play
You control your ship with five keys; thrust (move forward), turn
left, turn right, fire main gun and fire special gun. Both main and
special guns can be upgraded by picking up power-ups that appear around
the level from time to time.
When you pick up a main gun power-up, your gun is replaced instantiously.
Your main gun also has unlimited ammo. If you pick up worse gun than
you already had, tough luck.
Your ship also has special weapon with 2 to 16 slots; only one slot
can be active at a time. To activate another slot, you must either
visit a base and pick the slot, or pick up a "next slot"-power-up.
The special weapons have limited ammo.
When you visit a base, your ship is also automatically repaired;
this takes time, and you are literally a sitting duck when you are
being repaired. You also must return to a base when the last enemy
goes down. The bases may also be destroyed along with all the other
terrain, but they regenerate in time.
