- TIPS AND TRICKS -
Pulsator capsules and fire power will automatically be increased after a
period of time, So do not hesitate use the smart bomb if you are in a
dangerous situation. Always choose the Thunder Cannon as this is the
most powerful of the three primary weapons available. Try to position
your ship to the right of the screen as enemy craft tend to appear on
this side.
