Gameplay Overview
The player controls a ship, trying to kill as many enemies as possible while collecting stars and rescuing humans.
The player has a shield gauge along with a lives stock. Shield goes down if damage is recieved. If the shield is depleted, a life will be lost.
Each stage has it`s own requirements.
Scoring
Scoring consist of killing enemies, collecting stars and rescuing humans. Killing an enemy group will award bonus points.
Each stage has a set amount of stars and humans needed to collect.
After a stage is cleared, values goes like this:
- Amount of stars are multiplied by 50.
- Accuracy percentage is multiplied by 200
- Amount of humans rescued are multiplied by 500.
- Percentage of objects destroyed are multiplied by 100.
After that, the total bonus will be formed and will add up to the player´s score.
Difficulties
- Easy: For novice players. Enemies are less agressive and less destroy percentage is required.
- Normal: For moderate players. The original game experience.
- Hard: For veteran players. Enemies are more agressive and more destroy percentage is required.
