You can view the 
princess by flying
into the "view girl"
TV sceen at the base of
the "AVILA" building.
You can replenish hit/
points by flying through
the Martian plants or by
shooting asteroids and 
quickly flying through 
the "shimmering" debris.
You can gain a life by 
landing on the landing
strip in space. Be care-
full of the bad guys. 
The "boundry" space is
very tricky to fly in,
if you go out of control
you will get "stuck".
Look for the bombs on 
Venus. The plant life
is full of energy, some
plants can bite. You will
need several bombs to
complete the rescue.
It is important to master
the flying of the ship
first before you try the
rescue. You can scare the
commuters with your laser
with only one blast and
they will land. If you
shoot them any more they
will die and points will
be deducted. You must fly
into a little bit of the
"boundry" space once you
find a planet you wish
to visit. Be carefull of 
the reentry from this type
of space. When searching
for and extracting bombs
on Venus use carfull 
flying. Use the "b" key
to backup if necessary.
Flying through the plant
life on Mars requires
accurate flying ability.
The laser gun is on Mars.
Shoot some of the moving
plants on Venus to get 
the pink bombs. Fly close
to them and press the 
"P" key to pick them up.

 More Hints:

Some of the plants on Venus
are hiding bombs that you
cannot shoot. If you have
more then 250 hitpoints
you can kill the plant by
touching it and then
pick up the bomb. You can
get more hitpoints by flying
through the Martian plants.
The laser also can be 
recharged in the same way.
