In the game use the joypad to move your plane about, A fires your weapon, and B activates your special weapon. Each level is in two parts, the first is at high altitude fighting other planes, then usually you will go to low level and attack a fleet, You must try to destroy as much or the fleet as possible, if you don't you may have to replay the level. Sometimes you may not go to low level as the end of level boss is a plane, you must shoot his engines out and the cockpits.
