== Gameplay Overview ==
The player controls a ship, trying to kill as many enemies as possible while collecting stars and rescuing humans.

The player has a shield gauge along with a lives stock. Shield goes down if damage is recieved. If the shield is depleted, a life will be lost.

Each stage has it`s own requirements, while the game also gives strategies to the player.

=== Scoring ===
----
Scoring consist of killing enemies, collecting stars and rescuing humans. Killing an enemy group will award bonus points.

Each stage has a set amount of stars and humans needed to collect.

After a stage is cleared, values goes like this:

*Amount of stars are multiplied by 50.
*Accuracy percentage is multiplied by 200
*Amount of humans rescued are multiplied by 500.
*Percentage of objects destroyed are multiplied by 100.

After that, the total bonus will be formed and will add up to the player´s score.

=== Difficulties ===
----
*Easy: For novice players. Enemies are less agressive and less destroy percentage is required.
*Normal: For moderate players. The original game experience.
*Hard: For veteran players. Enemies are more agressive and more destroy percentage is required.
