Enemies come at you from all sides, shooting at you from all directions. Blasting an enemy leaves a pod which will explode into deadly lasers if not destroyed in time. There is also a zapper that zooms around the playfield with its own deadly beams (as seen in the 3rd screenshot below), while collecting 'Sheepies' will power-up your ship with a nice set of forward and rear lasers. Experienced players will find these 'Sheepies' will come in handy quite often, as falling back on these power-ups will restore you back to life should you die above one. These and other techniques
