THE MAD BRAIN OF BALANGOOL
It is the year 2001. High-frequency radio and television communications between Planet Earth and the space-exploring Saturn Space Station blast warning of approaching invaders, then abruptly cease. Suddenly, over the air waves come chilling warnings to prepare for the brutal invading forces of the Balangool Empire, controlled by L-Brain, a powerful computer gone mad. Only the swift destruction of this berserk hardware will save the universe from total domination.
GAME PLAY: To save the planet, you must shed your mortal identity and unite in spirit with freedom-fighter Captain Commando, the last astronaut in space. Concealed in your special solar-energized, jet-propelled, supersonic spacesuit--fully-armed with quick-firing multi-directional weaponry--you must battle the Space Soldiers of Balangool. Your task is to infiltrate their base through four dangerous levels, penetrate Section Z, and destroy the crazed L-Brain before his madness destroys the world. Will you and Captain Commando defeat the cruel Balangool Empire? Or should he have chosen a more skillful partner?
Alien Invaders approach the solar system from their interstellar battle platform, named Fortress Balangool. Under the command of the Master Control, named L-Brain, the Invaders defeat Earth's space forces. Only one hero, Captain Commando remains to defeat the alien armada by entering Balangool and fighting through the various sections until reaching Section-Z.
Section-Z is a side-scrolling shooter where the player must travel through the maze that is Balangool. Typically this consists of traveling through a scrolling corridor and reaching the end where a new direction must be chosen. Captain Commando's abilities are shooting directly left or directly right while moving around the screen. Power-ups can be collected by defeated enemies and include; improved lasers, a 3-way cannon and shield, these can be stored until needed. There are also SMS (Special Transmission Shell) power-ups, which require energy to use Energy units, are used to absorb enemy fire. Loss of all energy or running into an enemy or a wall causes death.
Certain sections of Balangool are blocked until a generator can be found and destroyed. There are four different boss creatures that must be defeated when encountered.
