kraptor [options]

Kraptor is a classic shoot 'em up scroller game, where you must fight against tons of bad dudes. The game offers high speed action, with massive destruction and lots of fun. Kraptor features a powerful engine for 2D shooter scroller games.

After years of oppression, the slaved people of the world have raised against their masters. You, has a mercenary pilot, has been contacted by the popular rebellion to fight against the forces of oppression.

In the morning, you jump into your cockpit and start up the engines. It's time to get airborne and start the attack. Get ready to scramble the scum hired by the masters. Murder for freedom is the only way, you're on a mission, don't defraud us...

You must drive your plane and fight your enemies through a series of different levels. You can move your plane with the mouse, fire your current selected weapon with your left mouse button and use the right mouse button to change weapon.

There's access to a 'Black market' shop between levels where you can buy new weapons, upgrade ship, etc. You can always save your game at that point, so you must not start from the beginning every time you play the game.
