The game plays from a first-person perspective along a fixed forward path, with the player aiming and firing at enemy craft, turrets, and obstacles. Movement is focused on adjusting the targeting reticle, while the route itself advances automatically. Stages mix narrow tunnels and more open spaces, requiring quick reactions, accurate shooting, and steady positioning. Progress is based on clearing zones and surviving boss encounters.
