- ~Hints
-

- so before you do anything go here and collect all what was left
- behind with your ashes !

- Having problems killing the the Robot at the end of level 7 ?
-
- Adam Pletcher of Parallax Software recommends:
-
- "Stay tight against the inside pillar, and keep circling. This
- is the best way to lose missiles that have lock. Take out the
- Vulcan Guys, SuperMechs (the red guys), and the Boss, in that
- order. Get the cloak in the alcove on the far side of the
- pillar. When attacking the Boss, make passes, don't sit still.
- And make extra sure none of those green missiles hit you in the
- face, they'll probably kill you."
-
-
- Making the game easier can be done in four ways :-
-
- Decrease the difficulty level of your game
-
- Try flying around an empty mine tunnel as fast as you can and
- as fluidly as you can.
-
- PRACTICE STRAFING!! This technique will save you many times over
- when it comes to enemy fire.
-
- Learn when to (and when not to) use the different kinds of
- weapons you have.
-
- Practice, practice, practice ! Of course !!
