## What is Lunar Tide?

Shoot the enemy spaceships while you defend your planet from certain doom. Survive as long as you can in this arcade space shooter!

You are the Moon Pilot. Your job is to keep the evil invaders from taking your planet resources.
Use the Eletromagnectic Pulse weapon in order to defend your precious world!
