Overview and Gameplay
A lone fighter jet is deployed to repel a coordinated alien invasion spreading across multiple continents, moving through vertically scrolling battlefields filled with enemy waves and stage bosses. The objective is to survive each region, destroy incoming threats, and push forward through a series of global conflict zones. Power-ups enhance firepower and introduce temporary defensive abilities, including brief invincibility effects that shift the pace of combat during intense encounters.
