This fast-paced arcade action puts you in control of “ace” astronaut who, stranded on an uncharted moon, with minimal oxygen left, and suddenly under attack from unknown alien lifeforms, must quickly re-build and power-up a prototype “X0” rocket to escape before the mission is lost!...

This game was written in XNA and ported to Silverlight with the SilverSprite library.

This game uses Application Storage in order to save key game data during gameplay (this is saved automatically either when the player reaches a new level, or loses a life), hence please ensure that it
is enabled for the game within Silverlight.

If the player exits mid-game, then on running the game the next time, play will continue from the start of the last level reached.

Silverlight version is prone to occasional failure; if this occurs, simply refresh browser in order to continue from the start of the last level reached.

Use the cursor keys or A, D, W, S to move and the M key to fire.

rocket base / mid / top = 100 pts each.

6 fuel pods = 50 pts each.

“blast off” bonus = 400 pts.

blasting an alien = 10 pts.

remaining oxygen at end of level = 10 pts per sec.

extra life (or if max of 9, then +1000 pts) every 5000 pts.
