Blast Off (Japan) — About this game
Blast Off (Japan) changes the ship’s firing geometry with a dedicated pattern control. The available formations cover different combinations of forward, rearward, diagonal and sideways directions, while holding the shot builds a stronger spherical laser. Each world progresses through three areas before the ship grows for its boss encounter. Choosing coverage for the next approach becomes as important as positioning the ship out of danger.
