Hunt the Gah and Ogros in 3D!!
Storyline
Centuries ago your people colonised the planet Pycill and enslaved the natives, the Ogro. Life has been good for your race but now your ancient enemy, the Gah, have landed and armed the Ogros. Your scanner shows that they appear to be searching for something. Whatever it is your task to destroy them all as fast as possible. The Ogro are big and ugly and easy to catch, the Gah will be harder. Armed with the latest in plasma weapons you are ready to hunt them down.

Do you run out of ammo? I shot all the guys except the last one, and then my gun wouldn't fire any more.

i believe its because you can only shoot an infinit number of shots. but if they dont hit anything they just seem to fly arround forever. at least it looked like thats the problem.

I noticed that too...all those shots flying around in the sky. I guess they need a certain lifespan, or cycle the array....

You have an infinite number of shots but a maximum of 10 on the go at any particular time. The shots do have a lifetime of a few seconds but I'll double check that. I certainly haven't experienced the same problems.

If you fire into the air while moving at maximum speed then the shot will be visible for some time due to relative velocity.

Hope you enjoyed it anyway.
