Stargunner is one of the most classic games of the space, side-scrolling shooter genre, which is also inspired by the eternal Star Wars. The player aboard the Stargunners attack ship attacks the Zilion's startled defenses and destroys the vast numbers of their units that defend and attack the player and his ship from all sides. The player slowly approaches the planet, where he es through a massive defense and space station, flies over the planet, over the cities of Zilion, weaves through an underground maze and below sea level. It uses a wide range of weapons, flamethrowers, rocket launchers, laser and plasma cannons to destroy large numbers and many types of enemies. Each level is preceded by a shopping mode, which allows the player to equip his ship with a better weapons arsenal if he has collected a sufficient number of gems during the previous mission.
