The Empire Strikes Back/Gameplay

Controls

 * Handlebar: Use the handlebar to direct the gunsights of the SnowSpeeder and Millennium Falcon around the screen; as with the original Star Wars, the vertical control of the handlebar is "reversed", meaning that pushing it up will cause the ships to dive and pushing it down will cause them to rise, so if you are using MAME to play this game, you may want to set the "AD Stick Y Reverse" setting in the "Analog Controls" menu to "On" to invert it. Both thumb buttons on the handlebar are also there to make the two ships fire shots at the enemies - and the second one is for left-handed players.

Scoring
You'll also receive a "Flying Bonus" for trick flying (that starts at 5000 points and increases by 5000 more points each time), a "Wave Completion Bonus" of 2500 points for finishing a wave, 5000 points for making a Jedi letter light up and a "Jedi Bonus" of 20000 points for making all the Jedi letters light up (along with temporary invulnerability); also, if you should choose to start on Wave 2 or 3 and manage to finish it, you'll receive a bonus of 100000 (Wave 2) or 250000 (Wave 3) points. However, as the game progresses, the amounts of enemies to be destroyed to make the Jedi letters light up will increase.
