Sinistar (revision 2, upright) — About this game
Sinistar (revision 2, upright) makes crystals both the player’s ammunition supply and the workers’ construction material. Controlled fire at a planetoid releases crystals for Sinibombs, but excessive shooting destroys the source. Workers take those crystals to assemble Sinistar while Warriors attack the player. Once active, the skull-shaped craft pursues the ship; the homing bombs can damage it, although other objects may intercept them before arrival.
