==Gameplay== Set in the year 2003, the game involves using a spaceship to destroy enemy droid ships. The player's ship is controlled using a spinner to rotate the ship's direction, a button for thrusting, and a button for firing lasers. The enemies that the player must destroy or avoid are drone ships, commander ships, two types of space mines, and shooting star ships. [[1-up|Extra ships]] were usually awarded at 40,000 and 100,000 [[Score|points]], but this default setting could be changed by the machine's owner. Its gameplay has been compared to ''[[Asteroids]]'', in that the game uses black and white vector graphics and the ship is moved using a thrust button. Unlike ''Asteroids'', the ship wasn't allowed to warp to the other side of the screen; it would bounce off an invisible barrier on the edges of the screen that would briefly appear when something hit it.
