In route to the colony on Sur 4, the colonial transport was attacked by biological ships belonging to the Xenos, a highly organized collection of hostile alien races. Jaraad and Colesce were separated, and Jaraad watched from his escape pod as the Xenos ships fled the wreckage of the colonial transport. Convinced Colesce had died aboard the transport, Jaraad devoted his life to destroying the Xenos once and for all. For three years Jaraad trained as a mercenary and weapons expert, tracking down and destroying Xenos ships and bases. 3024 AD: A mercenary known as E. Red gives Jaraad a crucial piece of information; the xenos have been collecting human slaves and are holding them on a planet in the Talos V system. With the realization that Colesce could be one of the prisoners, Jaraad heads towards the Talos V system, prepared to investigate each of the three planetary bases in that system in order to find his daughter. And so it begins... Your objective: Find, and destroy the evil Drektor. He is the leader of the Xeno's. He is a tough, and worthy opponent. His brain hides in different forms, so he'll be hard to find. You'll know him, when you see him though. INSTRUCTIONS KEY FUNCTIONS and MOVEMENT (During GamePlay) ARROW KEYS = Directional Movement.

SATURN BALL Once you find the Saturn Ball, you will be able to curl up in a ball shape and roll across the screen. You are able to enter this position by simply pressing the DOWN ARROW key. IMPORTANT NOTE: You must be in the ball position to plant bombs. This position will also give you access to tunnels that you could not normally fit through in a standing position. BOMBS Once you are in the ball position you may lay bombs by pressing the ALT key. Use your bombs to blow holes in portions of the floors and walls in order to uncover secret passages that lead to larger caverns. Remember, when laying bombs, you must be in normal gun mode. If you are not in normal gun mode, simply press the SPACE BAR until you notice that the ITEM MENU is disabled. Helpful hint: You are able to project bombs in the direction you move. JUMP BOOTS Once you get the jump boots, your character will be able to jump further in height and distance. COLLECTIBLES Collectibles can be found throughout the caverns of the game. You will also find that the enemies you destroy usually leave collectibles behind. MISSILES Every time Killian Jaraad picks up a missile, you gain 1 missile to you inventory.

PLASMA Refills for your Plasma weapon can be picked up throughout the game. Each Plasma refill contains five shots.

Every time you take one of these battery packs, you gain 5 points of energy. SUPER ENERGY Super Energy can be found less frequently throughout the caverns and when you take it your energy will increase 99 points. RESERVE TANKS You can also find Reserve Tanks which increase the amount of energy you can hold. At the beginning of the game Killian Jaraad starts with 99 points of energy, but if you find another tank, you will be able to hold another 99 points of energy. KILLIAN'S SPECIAL ABILITIES At the start of each world, Killian Jaraad is able to perform a special skill, but you will have to find out what that skill is in each world. Hint: When near a vine, press the UP ARROW key and Killian Jaraad will grab hold of it and slide down. You must use this special skill throughout specific levels of the game. OTHER VARIOUS ITEMS SAVE GAME POD Once you enter the Save Game Pod, be sure to press the UP ARROW key. This will then present you the option of saving your game in 1 of 5 save slots. Save your game as many times as you can throughout your quest, in order to avoid having to restart your quest at the beginning. TELEPORTERS Teleporters are hidden throughout the worlds and once found can be used to transport you to other zones. Activate the teleporter by stepping inside and pressing the UP ARROW key. TRANSPORTERS Transporters look just like Teleporters, the only difference is they transport you to the next world. The good news about Transporters is they move you one step closer to defeating Drektor, the bad news is once you are transported to another world, via Transporter, you lose all of your special weapons.
