Hyperdome

Hyperdome is an arcade shoot 'em up developed by Microwish and published by Exocet Software. Released in Europe in 1989, it puts players in control of a fighter pilot's spaceship during a final survival test inside the Hyperdome.

The landscape scrolls horizontally, combining enemy combat with obstacle navigation. The ship begins with a basic laser cannon, while opponents can drop collectible markers that advance a visible bonus counter.

Weapons and bonuses

Players can activate one of nine available extras when the counter reaches the desired option:

• Increased ship speed
• Increased firepower
• Double fire
• Missiles
• Spread attack
• Homing missiles
• Satellite
• Shield

Losing one of the player's initial nine lives removes the current extra weapon. Collecting too many markers without activating a bonus resets the counter to the first option. Touching the landscape blocks destroys the ship, making careful navigation as important as shooting in some levels.
