About StarKiller
An evil enemy from another galaxy wants to stripmine our Solar System!
Their plan: sneak into our Solar System posing as harmless Venusians and
bomb our sun with Gravity Destabilizers. Only you can stop them!
You have to maneover your fast ship and destroy the starkillers, then pick
up the Destabilizer Cubes before they fall into the sun!
if 10 Destabilizers fall into the sun it will explode and kill the whole
solar system.
BEWARE: You need to navigate your ship in the sun's gravity, this is tricky
enough, but whenever a Destabilizer Cube falls into the sun or you shoot
one, it causes great gravity waves all around the sun causing everything in
orbit to fly away from the sun suddenly. Keep your finger on the Hyperspace
key!
You get 1000 points for each Cube you pick up and lose 50 for each that you
destroy (they pollute space) or that you let fall into the sun.
