Red Hawk

1996 1-2 Players 73% Not Rated

A vertical shooter. Fly over various planets and destroy as many buildings, tanks, planes, etc. as you can. At the end of each stage, you have to destroy a big space ship or monster in order to get to the next level. When destroying semi-big objects, you can collect power-ups to increase your firing speed. After finishing all twelve stages, the game shows the credits page that contains the names and pictures of the developers. While holding down the shoot button, the special weapon recharges and fires if it's completely loaded. The special weapon and the Big Bomb differ for each player: player two launches a big Ghost Bomber that blocks all enemy fire; player one shoots big discs across the whole screen. Watch out for the special power-ups located at the very end of both sides, almost out of the screen. These are better power-ups than normal. One of these is a Fire Cat upgrade that shoots automatically around your ship.
