The game is viewed from the side and uses horizontal-scrolling shooter mechanics. The objective is to move through each stage, destroy airborne and ground-based enemies, avoid projectiles and terrain hazards, and defeat the end-of-stage boss.

The player controls a combat vehicle that can transform between a ground vehicle and a flying form. This changes movement and positioning options during play. Weapon power-ups improve offensive capability, while successive stages increase enemy density and introduce more demanding patterns.

Stay mobile rather than remaining directly in front of enemy formations. Clear dangerous enemies before concentrating on scenery or collectibles, and use the vehicle's transformation to reposition around hazards.

Conserve upgraded firepower when approaching boss encounters, but prioritize survival over risky attacks. Learn the timing of recurring projectile patterns and keep a safe route open before the screen becomes crowded.
