Red arrows lead the players direction in and the word out, also in red, points the direction out. Once the charge was set, the player had to get out, back into the space-ship and MSD (minimum safe distance) before the space-station went critical and exploded. The object was to get to the core of the space-station unmolested and sabotage the reactor. Thus, a minor amount of "gravity" interacted with the player. The roller-knob controlled left and right character movement and a "jump" button permitted the player's character to leap over obstacles. In the next phase, the player would land on the robot space-station by centering the Catastrofighter in between the moving white line and Major Havoc would exit his ship and enter the space-station. The ships are encased in a sort of "buckyball" force-field shield which must be shot first before the ship can be killed.
Gameplay The player controlled the titular character, Major Rex Havoc, first in the "shoot-'em-up" style game, in which the player operated Major Havoc's spaceship, the Catastrofighter, against the numerous robot ships who defend the enemy reactors. The player controls Major Havoc, the leader of this very band of clones. The small band of scientists who initially escaped managed to clone the great human hero Major Havoc, in order to fly his Catastrofighter through a wormhole in space, so that he may lead a clone army against the dreaded Vaxxian robots, and to liberate the remnants of humanity by destroying the enemy reactors. However, numerous Vaxxian space stations, all blindly controlled and defended by robots, still remain in the galaxy, mindlessly pursuing their original orders. At the current moment (according to the timeline of the game), the Empire has since collapsed. A few humans, who were scientists, managed to escape. Most of humanity was enslaved and abducted to the Vaxxian homeworld. Storyline According to the story provided by the game's original cabinet, long ago the evil Vaxxian Empire overran the galaxy.
