The game uses a top-down vertical perspective. Players fly upward through several stages, destroy enemies, avoid bullets and terrain hazards, and defeat a large boss at the end of each mission.

Each aircraft has its own weapon characteristics. Power-ups improve the main shot, while bombs provide emergency screen-clearing damage. A two-player mode allows cooperative play, and the game continues through a fixed sequence of missions with limited lives and continues.

Stay near the lower portion of the screen so incoming threats remain visible and maneuvering space is available.

Save bombs for dense bullet patterns, sudden ambushes, or bosses rather than using them immediately. Learn the timing of each stage's enemy formations and collect shot power-ups whenever the route is safe.
