Game Play

The player will be navigating a ship through space. The player can move right, left, forward, back, and can shoot. The screen is the boundary for movement, and scrolls independently of the player's position. There are rings that the player can go through to pick up various bonuses. The player must progress through the level destroying enemies and picking up power ups.

Controls

The player will move by pressing the arrow keys. Pressing two arrow keys, such as up and left will cause the player to move on a diagonal. Pressing the space bar will shoot, and there will be keys to switch between weapons (either z/x to scroll or z/x/c/v to actually choose a particular weapon).

Rings

There will be rings positioned throughout the level, centered on the xz plane. Each ring will be associated with a specific bonus, such as score, weapon power ups, or extra ammunition. To get these bonuses, the player must navigate through the ring without colliding into it.

Enemies

The enemies will also be space ships that will move on set paths through the world. They will be able to shoot, which will be determined either by their position or time since they last shot.

Shooting

The only way to destroy Enemies is to shoot them. Different enemies will require a different number of hits before they die. If the enemies shoot you or you collide with them, you will die.
