Captain Kelly

In Captain Kelly, you play a space delivery man trapped aboard the ship Obsidian 2 after its security shutdown code fails. Explore the ship’s seven scrolling, top-view maze levels and destroy the required number of security robots on each one.

Combat is limited by your available ammunition, while contact with robots or enemy fire drains energy. Oxygen also steadily decreases, making resource management essential. Items and locations can replenish energy, oxygen, and ammo, and teleporters connect different levels.

Terminals provide progress updates and report the number of robots remaining on each level. After the required robots are destroyed, that level’s systems and supplies shut down, although its teleporters remain active. Once every level is cleared, enter the Master Control Room and power up two satellites within the time limit to complete the game.
