Description

A chase-view shoot 'em up through space where the player has to destroy a certain amount of UFO's to proceed to the next
section of the round. If this is done before the time runs out, bonus points are awarded. There are many rounds, each with 8
sections, and in the 8th section, the player fights a big spaceship that releases many smaller UFO's. The each round is
