Mechanical stingrays descend in swarms to bomb Earth, forcing the player to defend the planet using a horizontally moving laser cannon. This arcade-style shooter utilizes a 3D perspective to track alien forces. As gameplay progresses, the enemy swarms split up to attack from several sides, increasing the difficulty of clearing waves to earn points.
