THE GAME
The last demon of Octan is giving you a lot of trouble and you
have set out across the broiling vapour seas in the eight planes
of his world to destroy him. Your ship is armed to the teeth
with lasers and missiles and can also be supercharged with
shields, nuke blasts and shock waves. Take on his minions,
attack his Mammoth demon servants, then, with all your
might, face him.
