The 'ACME Interstellar Transport Company' is
delivering SPACESHIP KITS to various planets in the solar systems
through the Galaxy ; and as chief test pilot, all you have to
do is assemble the Rockets, and thrust to your next destination.
But! as you don't often get the chance of a free
trip across the Galaxy, and space travel is, oh, so expensive,
now is your chance to get rich! You might just as well stop off
on several planets on your journey. Collect the odd sack of precious
gems, elements or gold, and take them back with you.
Sounds simple doesn't it!
But! before you go and make yourself the richest
person in the whole Universe. You must decide. You must remember
to refuel your Spaceship every time you land on a planet, with
6 fuel pods, Any other goodies you collect are yours to keep.
Upon landing you will find yourself equipped with the latest Hydrovac
JETPAC which can automatically air lift almost any rocket
stage, fuel pod or valuables, you care to land upon, and release
them over the rocket ship base, plus megga powerful Quad Photon
Laser Phasers, to blast any nasty, mean, little aliens who might
object to your visit.
And my! do those aliens get upset, when you collect
all of their valuables, and sneak off, without so much as a by-your-leave.
