Lunar OutpostLunar Outpost


Introduction
Defend your lunar base against all evil attackers!

Getting ready to play
Push the Fire-Button to start. Select the length of the game by choosing the 
number of (game-)days you wish to play and one of three difficulty levels.

Objective
Your mission is to protect all the buildings on your moonbase. Destroy all 
incoming enemy ships as fast as possible.


Playing the Game
The game has two views: the 'bird's eye view' (BEV) and the 'close view'(CLV). 
You can switch from BEV to CLV using your fire button, the reverse way is 
different. In CLV, you should always see a futuristically-looking, small module 
in the distance. Move there to get back into bird's eye view.

In BEV, there's a window on the upper right that'll display some small filled 
squares or rectangles that MOVE, these are your enemies!! Get CLOSE to the 
enemy, very close, and switch to close view. Now wait a little and the enemy 
will come close to you - shoot him 'til all enemies are done!

If the area appears to be empty, move towards the module in the distance and get 
back into BEV.

Repeat this 'til there's no more enemies in BEV. Game will continue with next 
level then.

Buildings
Yellow: Move over them in CLV, push your Joystick towards you and press the 
Fire-Button to reload your weapons.
Cyan: Move over them in BEV to refuel.
Blue: Move over them in CLV, push your Joystick towards you and press the 
Fire-Button to engage a mechanic. Keep moving the Joystick from UP to LEFT and 
back until your vehicle is repaired.
