About this game
Hal Bailman fights in two forms: aboard a craft on the approach and in an armored suit inside the fortress. The approach’s energy and Crash Beam pickups determine the reserves available for the interior mission. Inside, flying and shooting spend energy, while resting restores some. Limited heavy ammunition adds another resource to consider. Destroying the central reactor is followed by finding the escape hatch, making the way out part of the objective.
