Drone Fire

Drone Fire is a keyboard-controlled drone game in which you use an onboard machine gun and missiles to destroy 101 targets. Targets fight back and can damage or destroy your drone. Each target destroyed with the machine gun adds one missile to the drone's load.

Five stages

The battlefield has five stages, each with a different objective:

• Stage 1: Learn to handle the drone and collect a missing file while destroying 20 targets. Targets can damage the drone in various ways. You can destroy them only by finding a brightly shining target and shooting until its energy reaches zero.
• Stage 2: Defeat one huge monster. Machine guns can do the job, but using the missing file collected in Stage 1 is advantageous.
• Stage 3: Destroy 10 airplanes, one by one. You must identify their software-programmed weaknesses and attack them properly.
• Stage 4: Destroy 20 enemy drones and five turrets. The turrets are highly destructive, so destroy them first using the missing file, even at the risk of taking damage. If you do not have a missing file, destroy enemy drones to obtain one, then use it against a turret. Enemy drones that meet the conditions attack your drone all at once.
• Stage 5: Enter the airborne monster base and destroy more than 45 of its 50 monsters. They repeatedly appear and disappear, and a monster can be destroyed only once, so keeping track of which ones you have destroyed is key to winning.

Restarting a run

If your drone's energy reaches zero during any of the five stages, you return to the beginning of Stage 1 and start again. The screen displays the keyboard controls and instructions whenever your drone's speed is stopped at zero. Repeated play can lead to victory.
