Heliot

## Description

_Heliot_ is a fixed screen shoot ’em up that takes place during the
prohibition era. The player controls an armed man, supposedly a gangster, who
can walk left and right down the bottom of the screen while shooting at the
enemies above him. The enemies, which are represented by icons of objects of
the era (such as tommy guns, beer mugs, cars etc.), move back and forth
according to certain patterns while dropping projectiles that the player
character has to avoid. Each type of enemy has its own movement pattern. The
player getting hit will lead to a lost life and when all four lives are gone
the game is over. An extra life is given for every 2000 points earned. Before
starting out there are five difficulty levels to choose from.
