Photons

A Photon is fired when the spacebar is pressed. The Photon will explode at a distance and destroy all ships within a certain radius. If your ship is within a certain radius it will be damaged. At the beginning of the game you do not have any Photons.

Mines

A Mine is released when the BREAK key is pressed. The Mine is stationary and is set to explode in a short time will be damaged if you are too close when it explodes. At the beginning of the game, you do not have any Mines.

Warp Drive

Your ship is also equipped with Warp Drive capabilities (the system has no power at the beginning of the game). Pressing the Enter key starts the Warp Drive and will move your ship very rapidly. Your weapons system will not operate while your Warp Drive is engaged. The Warp Drive loses energy when it is engaged.

Shields

The Shield is the first system to take damage. When it reaches zero, all other damage is inflicted on a single, active system in a random fashion. Since the Photons and Mines are fragile systems, any damage to these systems will destroy all of the Photons or Mines in storage.

Radar System

The Radar System is fully operational when the game begins. If it is damaged your radius of detection on radar is reduced. If it is totally destroyed, only your ship will appear on the radar.

Energy System

The Energy System is the most important one on your ship. When it reaches zero, your ship has been destroyed. Movement uses energy and causes damage to your ship when your Shields have been destroyed.

Repairing Your System

Docking with one of your bases will give you Shield energy. Phaser energy and either repair a system on your ship or give you a Photon or Mine. Your bases are the squares on your radar. You can only receive repairs once from each Base during each wave of Aliens.

Alien Ships

The Alien ships attack you and your bases. A base is destroyed when the Alien Ship shoots it four times. The lasers from the Alien Ships damage your ship. Ramming an Alien Ship destroys the Alien but causes double the damage from an Alien Laser to be inflicted upon your ship. There are many different types of Alien Ships including ones that are cloaked from your radar and ones that transport to another place when you turn toward them.

Asteroid Field

Every few waves of aliens you will find yourself in an Asteroid Field. Only your Phasers will fire in this field. The playing field is also reduced to one-fourth its normal size. You must shoot the Asteroids with your Phasers. The Asteroids will divide twice before they are small enough to be destroyed by your Phasers. Ramming an Asteroid with your ship will cause considerable damage.

Mine Field

Every few waves of aliens you will find yourself in a Mine Field. As before, only your Phasers will fire. A small Alien Ship will be laying Mines on the playing field. Your object is to destroy this Ship. The Mines will damage your ship if they explode near you. When you enter a Mine Field after the first time, the Mines will not remain stationary.
