Excellent into the screen Afterburner style game, showcasing the Lynx's scaling capabilities to the full. This was one of the launch titles for the machine.

Flying into the screen, the player can fire upon enemy aircraft with missiles and guns, in levels high in the sky, or skimming on the ground, taking out ground based vehicles such as tanks.

Some of the best levels are flying through canyons with anti air craft guns and tanks making for some tense action.

The plane can be barrel rolled to avoid some missiles, and the player also has an afterburner at their disposal.
