you're carrying the correct colour-

a
important parts of the Starfighter

are in special rooms where access

is computer controlled! To enter
o
these rooms you'll also need the
correct data card. As an extra

security, parts of the floor are

booby-trapped: so be careful where

you walk.
The power for your protective suit
comes from four built-in batteries.
However, any contact with a guard
or a mistake while negotiating
results in partial draining of the
batteries. Total power loss means
instant death!
Movement within each
department is by walking left or
right, or by pressing activate when
positioned directly over an up or
down arrow. Movement between
each room is either by the security
doors or by pressing activate while
over a hypa-port. Remember, you
can only open a locked door by
collecting a lock card the same
colour as the door: to pick up a
colour-coded lock card just stand
over it and press the activate key.
The correct lock card you're holding
is displayed at the top right-hand
side of the screen. Don't waste time
— you're playing against the clock!

behind, looking out into the perilous
alien landscape. The Skimmer
fightercraft was designed for low-
flying air combat and you're about
to put it to good use! Your mission
is to rid a planet of its alien invaders
and, no prizes for guessing. the
best way is to blast them out of the
sky!
Armed with a deadly laser
cannon you can destroy enemy
craft by pumping balls of anti-matter
at them. But that's not where the
action ends: the aliens have set up
plasma pillars which you have to
avoid as you zoom through the
landscape.. Contact with a plasma
pillar or an alien craft results in
instant death and loss of one of
your lives!
Omega Zone features ten levels
of manic action and if you can
survive all ten you can award
yourself a hero's badge!
CONTROLS
Alien death Is just a key-press away
when you're playing Omega Zone
with the keyboard (definable control
keys). Alternatively, plug a joystick
into a Kempston interface and slam
that fire-button and watch 'em fly!
