Note - this is the same game as Demon Attack!
CREATURE STRIKE INSTRUCTIONS
Marooned on the ice planet Krybor, you watch legions of
eerie creatures scream overhead. They hover ominously.
Attack and destroy them - or be destroyed!. Armed with
your Laser Cannon, you confront the ultimate challenge:
SURVIVE!
--------------------------------------------------------
GAME PLAY
--------------------------------------------------------
Destroy demons and accumulate points before you and
your Laser Cannon meet with oblivion. Keep reserve
bunkers intact and increase their number by avoiding
your foes' fire. When the last bunker disintegrates, the
next enemy hit will pulverize you!
* Your Laser Cannon has unlimited firing power.
* Dodge left or right to avoid enemy fire while pursuing
aliens.
* Accumulate reserve bunkers (bottom left of screen).
You begin with 3.
* Each attack wave you survive completely unscathed
earns you an additional bunker, to a maximum of 6.
* Every hit you absorb destroys a bunker.
* When all bunkers disappear, another alien barrage will
vaporize you.
--------------------------------------------------------
HAND CONTROLS
--------------------------------------------------------
* Your joystick controller allows you to manoeuvre.
Position controller so that the red firing button rests in
the upper left hand corner. To move the Laser Cannon
left, push joystick left; for right mobility, lean joystick
right.
