Dropzone — About this game
Dropzone combines shooting with rescue in a landscape that scrolls in both directions. You guide a jetpack-equipped astronaut, collect people from the surface and return them to the marked dropzone. Inertia and gravity make the approach to the ground part of the challenge, so slowing down matters as much as firing. The Strata Bomb clears enemies from the screen when pressure builds. A cloaking device gives a short window of protection, followed by a recharge. Keep track of the people you are trying to save while choosing when to spend those defensive tools.
