''Seek And Destroy'' Is a [[Vertical Scrolling Shooter|Vertical]] [[Shoot
[[Zeerust|It's the far-off future year of 1998,]] following a nuclear [[World War III]]. You are are one of the last [[Universal
You have the option of using either an [[Cool Plane|Apache attack helicopter]] or an unidentified ([[Cool Tank|but awesome]]) battle tank, each with distinct weaponry. The Apache has six weapon bays and the tank four, as well as a separate "special" weapon bay, of which there are three unique ones for either vehicle. These bays can be reconfigured before each mission to hold different amounts of ammunition for each weapon, though the first bay always has the [[Emergency Weapon|chain gun.]] You could have a whole bunch of ammo for one weapon or limited ammo but lots of different weapons, or any combination thereof. You can also tweak the specs of your craft, tipping it towards [[Mighty Glacier]] or [[Fragile Speedster]] as per your play style.
Line 24:
* [[Every Ten Thousand Points]]: Get enough points, get a [[One Up]]. Pretty standard.
* [[Exactly What It Says On the Tin]]: Though the fact that all enemies and structures appear on your [[Enemy Detecting Radar|radar]] kind of eliminates the "seek" part. Also in the chapter names: "Operation Heatwave" is a [[Shifting Sand Land|desert zone]], "Operation Snowstorm" is an [[Slippy Slidey Ice World|arctic zone]], "Operation Monsoon" is a [[Jungle Japes|jungle zone]], you get the idea.
* [[Exploding Barrels]]: [[Up to Eleven|Even better]]: exploding fuel dumps and [[Nuke
* [[Wizard Needs Food Badly|Helicopter Needs Fuel Badly]]: Both vehicles have a limited supply of fuel. If you run out, [[Critical Existence Failure|you blow up.]] You can find more fuel in the field, however, as a [[Power
* [[Kill It With Fire]]: The Apache has access to napalm bombs that cause damage in a line, as well as a star-shaped blast super napalm bomb as one of it's special weapons. The tank has a flamethrower.
* [[Land Mine Goes Click]]: Watch out for these while driving the tank. However, it goes both ways, as this is one of the tank's special weapons. Guaranteed to blow any land enemy right the hell into orbit.
* [[Macross Missile Massacre]]: Your Apache starts out being able to fire a steady stream of dumb-fire rockets, but this can be upgraded to two and then ''four'' with each shot.
* [[Pinball Scoring]]
* [[Power
* [[Stuff Blowing Up]]: Holy ''crap''.
* [[Support Power]]: You have a "Fire Support" ability, though it's upgraded and used like any other weapon and behaves like a [[Smart Bomb]]. There are three levels: Offshore artillery, chopper support, and a supersonic air-strike, each doing more damage then the last.
