Barrage fits into the shoot-em-up genre of games, where a player moves a ship, constantly firing at waves of enemies, as a barrage of damage-dealing obstacles fly back. The goal of the game is to survive long enough to get the highest score, utilizing risky maneuvers, finding gaps just big enough to squeeze your ship through, and a number of powerups to make the swarm of baddies manageable along the way.
Use the arrow keys to move. Press enter to start, pause, and replay. Kill enemies from as high up on the screen as possible for the most points, and grab powerups as they fall down. When you let enemies live, you lose points, so you have to destory as many as possible.
