Game Instructions –

My mistake started when I saw a demo of the chop lifter at Akihabara and thought, “I could do this with the M5.” The M5 only has 8KB of memory. After thinking a lot about what sacrifices I should make, the person who offered me his hand made me decide to do it again.

In the end, in this “FUEL LIFTER”, only helicopters, tanks, fighters, and UFOs can appear. Also, this helicopter doesn’t shoot.

How to play

Move the cursor up, down, left and right. Operate the helicopter and go to the warehouse on the left.
Take the fuel to the base on the right. You can land on the mat left side of the building.

Fuel loading (points) at the warehouse varies depending on the time it takes to get there.

UFO: Appears when the score is over 18 points or more and the number is even. In order to get through the UFO (to get an odd number), you have to think about how long it will take to get to the warehouse when the number is likely to reach 18 points or more. You understand, right?

FIGHTER… From the beginning, it always appears from the opposite side of you! The more you do it, the more it appears.

TANK……It won’t shoot at you at first, but if you shoot at 9 points or more and bring back 4 or more points, it will shoot faster when you return. He takes a break from the 18th point and then shoots again from the 21st point. Over 40 points is the fastest.
