- Starhawk
- --------
- Fasten your seatbelt... you're the pilot defending the sovereignty of your
- planet. Don't blink -- you might miss one of the alien vessels.
-
- Controls
- --------
- Joystick: Moves your ships gunsight as you travel over the planet.
- Button 1: Unused.
- Button 2: Unused.
- Button 3: Unused.
- Button 4: Fire.
-
- Two controllers are required to two player games.
-
- Game selection
- --------------
- You have a choice of two game play options. They are:
-
- GAME 1: Your gunsight will move proportionally to the joystick movement.
- In other words, if you were to move the joystick slightly to the
- right, and then let it recenter itself, your gunsight would have
- moved slightly to the right and would remain there.
-
- GAME 2: You gunsight will move in a direct ratio to the joystick
- movement. In other words, if you want your gunsight to move to
- the right, you would push the joystick to the right and would
- have to hold the joystick there in order to keep the gunsight
- there.
-
- Game Play
- ---------
- Fly over your planet, protecting your comrades from alien ships trying to
- infiltrate your culture. Use the joystick to aim your gunsight and press
- button 4 to release your missiles toward the aliens. You only have 60
- seconds to prevent as many enemy craft as possible from getting through.
- In a two player game, you are both protecting the planet. The action
- builds as you compete to destroy the aliens!
-
- Command Ships
- -------------
- Every few seconds, an enemy Command Ship will signal his presence and
- appear. If you destroy him, the planet's rotation speeds up, you gunsight
- will get larger for 5 seconds, and you will receive double points for any
- other alien ships destroyed.
-
- Scoring
- -------
- Points are awarded for destroying each alien, as follows:
-
- Alien Points
- -----------------------------------
- Command Ship 800
- Starship 500
- Rocket 300
- Missile 200
- Bomber 100
-
- Bonus
- -----
- A bonus of 20 seconds is awarded for each 10,000 points scored. An
- additional ship (up to four) will come into view. However, your aim will
- have to improve after each bonus because the ships will become more difficult
- to hit.
