Retro shooter - while enemy bombards your city you can put stop to the attack using the mobile anti-aircraft gun.

Simple retro shooter that takes place during aerial attack on a city. Using the only left mobile anti-aircraft gun we can stop the enemy, or at least minimize the demolition of the city, but the task is complicated. First of all enemy is using level bombers that fly over the area and are, at the beginning, the easiest targets, but also there are assault fighters flying low over the building and firing rockets at our gun, so we have to move from place to place to avoid such attacks. What is more enemy is using V1-like missiles that fly rather low and suddenly drop to the ground. They are harder to spot and hit, what is more some of them will aim into our gun.

The game is rather simple shooter, but quite challenging - at the beginning everything is simple, but with each level the difficulty goes a bit higher, mostly due to fact that enemy planes are getting harder to spot on the night sky (and thus harder to hit) and we have to wait for the bomb explosions glow to see them clearly. At the highest level enemy planes are pretty much invisible, so we have to keep on moving all the time to avoid enemy fire and at the same time shoot without aiming, because most of the time we do not even have a clue where enemy could be.

World War 2
The alternative title (Blitz!) and its original game graphics suggest that the game takes place during World War 2 and Battle of Britain, although it is hard to be absolutely sure since the objects are simple.
