General Gameplay
The objective of each Stage is to steer your ship using your finger on the touchscreen, avoiding the barrage of bullets sent out by the big boss. Your ship will auto-fire straight up automatically, in order that you can destroy the boss ship. You can pick up your ship from any point on the screen, so it can be manoevred comfortably.
Your ship is the red dot in the middle of its green shield
As you shoot at the Boss Ship at the top of the screen, a boss power meter will slowly depleat until the boss is destroyed. It will respawn more powerfully near the end but its final destruction heralds the end of a level within this stage

Game Modes
Normal Mode
This is the standard game mode. Avoid the barrage from the boss whilst attempting to destroy it with your laser.

Special function (multi-touch) is a bomb that is planted where your ship is.

Multi-touch
Whilst steering the ship with one finger, a touch with the second finger will activate the special feature for each Mode. Double tapping the screen will activate 'Pause' mode, whilst a second double tap re-activates the game.
The bomb destroys any bullets from the boss that enter the exploding area.

Psy Mode
This mode is inspired by the Psyvariar family games. When your ship grazes a bullet, the bottom gauge fills up. When the gauge is full, the ship becomes temporarily invincible! Use this short period of time to graze as much bullets as possible and become invincible again... This technic is also called "scratching".

Special function will spin your ships shield, giving it more scratch area against the bullets. When the guage at the bottom becomes full, a shield will extend around your ship, rendering you invincible for a short while, enabling you to very quickly re-build up your scratch guage again.
Here, your ships' shield has 'scratched' a bullet, which will increase the power gauge at the bottom of the screen

Ika Mode
This mode is inspired by the legendary Ikaruga game. Your ship absorbs bullets if they have the same color as the shield spinning around your ship, but others destroy it. Absorbed bullets are automatically changed into lasers damaging the enemy.

ship absorbing blue enemies, and shooting lasers at the big boss. The green laser also causes damage

Special function will change the color of the absorbed bullets from Blue to Red, and vice-versa.

GW Mode
This mode is inspired by the Gigawing family games. Activate this modes special function by keeping the second finger on the touch screen until the guage at the bottom of the screen charges up your shield. This can only occur when the shield meter states OK.

I hope you enjoy this game, and other Lazrhog games released for the appstore. Neverputt is great fun, so ignore the 'negative' people out there and give it a go. Look out for more games from Lazrhog Games coming very soon...
When the shield gauge is empty, your shield is automatically activated, and any contact with bullets will result in a laser shooting at the big boss.
