***** DAN DARE 2 *****
After more than a year's silence the Mekon stirs again from his
hideout in deep space. His ambition to be ruler of the Earth has not
shaken in its resolve.
This time the Mekon has instigated immense scientific development and
has produced a new, genetically engineered race..... the SUPERTREENS!
He has also constructed a spaceship to launch his dastardly creations
on the Earth and is now on his way! Only Colonel Dan Dare can defeat
the Mekon and the only way to do it is FACE TO FACE!
DAN'S MISSION
There are four levels to the Mekon's ship, each level houses deadly
Supertreens, enclosed in Plexiglass Life Support Bubbles. Dan must
penetrate all four levels, locate all the Supertreens and sabotage
their control boxes before the level destruct sequence scatters them
into the Earth's atmosphere. When all control boxes have been shot,
Dan has to reach the passage connecting the present level with the
next one.
MEKONS MISSION
Like Dan, the Mekon, with the help of his Treens, must also locate all
the Supertreens. When found, he manually activates their life support
control boxes and ejects them into space.
LIVES
The player starts the game on level one with six lives. A life is
represented on the bottom score panel by a small dot. The game will
end if either all six lives are lost, or the player is caught on the
level-destruct blast unprotected. Extra lives are awarded for every
fifty thousand points scored. Extra energy objects can be picked up
which will replenish the stamina bar.
ESCAPE FROM THE SPACESHIP
On level four there is an escape Pod, although it's portable operation
unit has been moved elsewhere to prevent easy escape. The Pod's
advanced computer detection system allows only Vesuvian life forms to
operate it - this may be a huge problem for Dan!
