Storyline & Gameplay (Top)


The object of the game, is too in each level, protect as many people as possible from getting killed or captured during an alien invasion (Two words, one story :P). You are in control of the jeep (seen in the screenshots), the jeep is controlled with the left and right arrows, on the back of the jeep is your gunner, and he is controlled with the mouse. The game starts off with a basic machine gun, there are 5 more weapons you can earn throughout the gameplay... Machine Gun Upgrade, Missiles, Guided Missiles, Rail gun, and the all-mighty Electro. Every time a person makes it accross the screen, the meter in the top right corner increases, if you light the green light, you beat the level, if you also light the gold light, you obtain the bonus. Although your jeep can sustain damage, and be destroyed, you have as many chances with that as you like, although each time your jeep gets totaled, you loose points.
