CAPSULES

Sometimes when you destroy one of Doh's Blocks
on energy capsule will fall out. Capsules give your
scout ship different abilities. Catch them by posi-
tioning yourself under them. Your ship will absorb
and use them immediately.

S Capsule

If your ship has been changed
by a capsule/ the S capsule will
return it to a normal scout ship.

T Capsule

It creates a force field
behind your ship to deflect
a missed ball. It will
only deflect one ball.

M Capsule

This allows you to destroy
multiple Blocks in a row
(except Gold Blocks). Your ball
travels right through them.

L Capsule

It equips your scout ship
with lasers. To blast your
lasers/ press the A
or X Button.

10

G Capsule

It forms a glue-like field
around your ship so that you
can hold on to balls until you
press the A or X Button.

E Capsule

The length of your ship is
extended to almost twice it
original size.

D Capsule

The D capsule generates eight
balls from the original ball.
Keep all of them in play as
long as you can.

B Capsule

Catch this capsule to open a
warp gate between levels. Go
through this gate to enter a
new level.

P Capsule

An extra scout ship will be
added to your fleet. P cap¬
sules are very rare.

BLOCKS

You will be faced with three kinds of Blocks:
Normal, Silver, and Gold. In addition to the
Blocks, you must fight Doh's henchmen. They
appear randomly and you must fire many balls
or laser beams to defeat them.

Normal Blocks

These are the most common Blocks,
and they come in many different
colors. They hold the capsules.

One hit will destroy these Blocks.

Silver Blocks

The Silver Blocks do not hold any
capsules. They are also harder to
destroy. You will need to strike
them several times.

Gold Blocks

It's impossible to destroy Gold
Blocks. Instead, use them like
walls to bounce your balls into
other Blocks.

MISSION CONTROL

Back at Mission Control, Commander Therle has
some good advice for his scout ship pilots. Pay
attention to his tips, and your chances for sur¬
vival will increase. The lives of all your people
depend on your success.

High Speed

As soon as you are
familiar with piloting
your ship, go to the
Option screen and
increase the speed.

You will find that it is
easier to destroy
Blocks when you

Grab the M
Catch the M capsule
as often as you can.
Being able to fire
your ball through
multiple Blocks at
once is the best
weapon your ship
can have. You can
cover a lot of space
this way.

Let Some Go
Don't risk losing
your ship just to grab
a capsule. You could
fail your mission that
way. Let the capsules
that are hard to catch
fall off the screen.

You may be better off
without them.

Watch the Ball
As you race
through the barriers,
keep your eye on
the ball, not on your
ship. As your skill
improves, you will
be able to move the
ship into position
automatically.

Defeating Bosses
The huge bosses are
difficult to defeat,
but not impossible.
Use your head to
think up ways to
strike them with the
ball. Each boss has
his weak spot—you
just have to find it.
