Story
The Earth has been taken over by the "bad guys" from below. You need to fight the little goblins, look out for the "hot rocks" flying around and avoid the flying saucer. In order to stop the mayhem you must repair the broken power line section.
Instructions
You can shoot a laser by hitting the space bar or trigger on the joystick, or you can shot a photon torpedo by hitting the "[" to go left or "]" for right. You have unlimited laser power but only a few photon torpedos.
Press "p" to pick up items and press "d" to drop them again.
When you find the open pit, go fly back to the airport and pick up a load of TNT. The TNT is used to blow away the rusted brown wire covering the power trusses. You then must land on top of each power truss and pick it up by hitting the "p" key.
When you have picked up all the trusses, fly over the "open pit" and drop them by hitting a "d" key. If you do not like the placement you can pick it up again and drop it where you like. Once this job is done fly into the "blood red moon", it should turn yellow and will bring you to the ending screen.
