Aero Fighters

The game uses a top-down vertical scrolling view. Your aircraft advances automatically while you steer to dodge bullets and destroy enemy planes, turrets, and ground targets. Power-ups increase firepower, and bombs provide emergency area damage. Different pilots have different speed, shot patterns, and bomb effects, so stage knowledge, movement control, and power management are key to survival and scoring.

Bill

An American pilot with balanced handling and straightforward firepower.

Ryu

A Japanese pilot with higher mobility and agile movement.

Lina

A British pilot who uses a more spread-oriented weapon style.

Try to keep your main weapon fully powered up and avoid unnecessary hits, since losing power makes later stages much harder. Use bombs to escape dense bullet patterns or to finish tough boss phases safely. Learn enemy spawn points and item routes so you can position yourself for strong pickups and cleaner stage control.

Tips and tricks

• Stay near the lower part of the screen and make small, controlled movements.
• Keep your power level high; recovering after a hit is often the hardest part.
