How to Play Ambush (Japan)

Quick start

  1. Build speed along the runway without touching its edges.
  2. Activate Take-Off once the required speed is reached and before the runway ends.
  3. After launch, use the radar to locate incoming enemies.
  4. Line targets up with the crosshairs while avoiding asteroids.

Controls

During launch, make gentle left or right corrections and activate Take-Off at sufficient speed. In flight, steer to line enemies up with the crosshairs and use the firing action. The radar indicates incoming threats.

Ambush (Japan) — About this game

Ambush (Japan) begins with a take-off that can end the game before the space battle starts. The craft must build enough speed along a runway while staying away from the edges, then the player must activate take-off before reaching its end. Once airborne, the view sits behind the ship as enemies and asteroids approach. A radar in the upper-right corner helps identify incoming threats and line them up with the crosshairs. The opening therefore teaches a different skill from the fight that follows: gentle runway corrections first, then aim and evasion in open space.
