The number of bombs are displayed at the left-down corner. . PSY Mode As your ship grazes a bullet, the graze meter (displayed at the right-down corner) increases. When the graze meter becomes full, the ship becomes invincible for a while. - Special -> Rolling This movement widens the range the ship can graze. . IKA Mode Your ship has two attributes, white and black. All bullets also have these attributes, and your ship can absorb bullets that have the same attribute. Absorbed bullets are changed into lasers automatically. - Special -> Attribution change Change your ship’s attribute. . GW Mode Your ship can use the reflector. The reflector reflects bullets around your ship. - Special -> Reflector To use the reflector, you have to activate special until the reflector meter (displayed at the left-down corner) becomes empty. You can use the reflector only if the reflector meter displays 'OK'.

A deceptively simple shooter that will put your tapping to the test. When these X's start falling, you'll need every finger you've got just to stay alive! No IAP, no ads, just good old-fashioned shooting.
