Gameplay

The game uses a top-down vertical scrolling view. Players choose between the Silk Worm helicopter and the Super Bug jeep, each with unique movement and attack behavior. The helicopter is more agile and can engage both ground and airborne targets, while the jeep stays low and relies on ground-based advances and direct firepower. Stages are filled with enemy aircraft, turrets, armored vehicles, and environmental hazards. Destroying certain enemies may reveal power-ups or points, and progression is stage-based with checkpoint-style continuation after losing a life.

Characters

Silk Worm

The helicopter vehicle, built for high mobility and flexible attacks against air and ground threats.

Super Bug

The jeep vehicle, stronger in direct ground advances and handling terrain-heavy routes differently.

Strategy

Learn turret placements and enemy spawn patterns so you can remove dangerous targets before they fill the screen. With the helicopter, stay mobile and prioritize threats that limit movement; with the jeep, keep a steady line and avoid getting trapped by obstacles. In co-op, split roles so one player handles airborne enemies while the other focuses on ground units. Against larger targets, maintain fire while staying near a safe edge of the playfield.

Cheats

No cheats or unlockables available

Tips

Tips and tricks

  • Memorizing key enemy and turret locations makes the game much more manageable.
  • In co-op, avoid overlapping too closely so both vehicles have room to dodge.
  • Focus on large targets continuously rather than switching off too early and wasting damage output.
