Blaster

Piloting a spaceship amidst relentless waves of enemy fighters, players in Blaster must rescue stranded astronauts who represent humanity's last survivors. This frantic, single-player shooter challenges you to navigate eleven distinct level types – from Planetoid Waves and Saucerland to the unique Armageddon and Paradise sequences – while dodging both projectiles and suicidal enemy attacks. A crucial element of gameplay involves carefully avoiding fire on the drifting astronauts; contact is required to rescue them. With only three lives available, Blaster demands precision and quick reflexes as you battle your way through increasingly difficult encounters in this frantic chase-view shooter.
