About this game

Move the ship in eight directions and use separate buttons for airborne enemies and ground targets. Clouds conceal bells that can be collected for points or improvements such as speed, extra firepower and a barrier. Shooting a bell changes its color, so collecting a benefit also requires managing the bell while enemies keep arriving. You can play alone or with a second pilot at the same time, sharing the screen’s targets and bell opportunities.
