This is a remake of a classic vector graphics shoot’em’up from Midway Mfg. Co. first released in arcades in 1981. In this game you control an “Omegan Space Fighter”, and attempt to destroy waves of enemy droid ships. Battle takes place on a rectangular “track”. Player’s ship bounces off invisible walls of track. You control a small triangle that is your ship. The ship can turn, move forward (with thrusters) and fire. Movement is one of the games challenges; once the ship is moving, it can only be slowed by turning the nose in the opposite direction and use the thrusters. While doing that, the ship is unable to fire toward anything it is in motion toward. Your ship must survive Droid-dropped mines too - but you can shoot them too. The last ship of the Droid flights goes into a spiraling pattern. It was remade again in 2009 to make it easier, prettier and better. |
