About

Shooting Leaves 3

Features
Read full description

This is all directions scrolling retro 2D shooting game. Please look for an exit on a map while attacking ENEMY PLANEs. There isn't scores but the time to the exit is measured. (Frames are counted.) Let's reduce the time using POWER UP ITEMs in a map. The operation is simple: Touch = Beam is discharged. Dragging = MY PLANE is rotated and moved. To operate easily by smart phone, the map is rotated as well as MY PLANE. Each ENEMY PLANE has the front surface and the rear surface. When showing the rear surface, it is not destroied. On the all directions scrolling map, there are ITEMs and gimmicks. Please complete all areas by dealing with them well. (16 AREAs, 4 AREAs are free.)
