What's the story?
Mars. After the fall of Earth, the red planet has become the last bastion of humanity.
As a prelude to invasion, you have been ordered by the alien general Xoxis to use your trusty UFO to attempt an unarmed run through the trenches of Mars.
Your mission is to probe out the last line of defense of humanity before the invasion fleet arrives.
What are the core features?
Drag the UFO around and avoid the obstacles.
Retro arcade pixel graphics.
A unique soundtrack.
Visual-based damage system.
Two difficulty settings (Easy/Hard).
Locally stored in game high score system.
Multiple enemies/obstacles (Rocket launchers, Damage-drops, Laser barriers, Laser-Gatling turrets, Plasma weapons, Scatter guns).
Semi-rng-based obstacle placement, which means the start of each run is the same, then the RNG kicks in, and each run becomes unique.
