Aim of the game
As the pilot of the Slapfighter, you must destroy the evil alien
swarms which confront you on the planet Orac.
Game play
Much like any other vertically-scrolling shoot-em-up; fly
around the monochrome landscape shooting the hostile aliens and ground-
based guns. If an alien wave is completely wiped out, a star-shaped
power-up is dropped. This will highlight one of the powers on the left
of the screen. Press SPACE to select it, or alternatively wait and
collect more power-ups to advance to the next power.
Comments
"Above average shoot-em-up".

Very much a formula shoot-em-up, unfortunately made far too hard
by the fact that it's almost impossible to spot the enemy bullets.
Keys
