Pleiads Bootleg Set 1 is an alternative version of the classic 1981 arcade shooter originally developed by Tehkan. Building on the foundation of games like Phoenix, it tasks you with defending Earth across four distinct stages. You will face mutating Martian ships, navigate space debris, battle a mothership, and finally attempt to dock your own spacecraft.
How to Play
Your objective is to survive all four waves by destroying enemies and avoiding their fire. Arcade cabinet controls are mapped to your keyboard: use the Arrow keys to move your ship and press Z to shoot. Insert virtual coins with Shift and begin the game with Enter.
Tips
- In the first stage, Martian ships can land and build barriers. Prioritize destroying these grounded enemies before their defenses become overwhelming.
- During the space monster wave, you must hit the creatures directly in their center to destroy them.
- The final docking sequence requires precise alignment. Take your time to match your speed and position with the landing pad.
