Version 1.0

Background

On an elaborate space mission to benefit mankind, you fly into a black hole! Now instead of shooting down other ships, you're now faced with battling waves of pesky aliens known as the Time Warriors. Let these inferior beings know that only humanity should wield the power of space and time!

Guide

This adventure consists of ten waves of time warriors. Each wave presents a different level of difficulty. You have four lives and once your lives reach zero it is game over. There is also time that starts at sixty seconds from level one and continues throughout the waves. If the time remaining reaches zero it is game over. The final wave presents "Father Time", the leader of the time warriors, and the wielder of the Time Apparatus that is attached to his midsection. The Time Apparatus powers a machine that not only allows Father Time to attack you with a flurry of time bombs, but is also his key to staying alive. Destroy the machine and bring the Time Apparatus back to Earth, and you will be greatly rewarded! Good luck!
