Story

The Yars are a community of humanoid houseflies living peacefully in the Razak solar system - until the Qotiles destroyed one of their colonized planets. You must help the Yars avenge the destroyed colony and defeat the Qotiles. You'll fly a Yar scout over the Qotile's shielded base, which you must destroy either with energy blasts or by simply eating away at the shield. Once you've cleared a path, activate the Zorlon Cannon and use it to blow up the Qotile base. However, beware of the destroyer missiles that are targeting your Yar Scout to destroy it. You can hide in the rainbow-colored Neutral Zone to be safe from the missiles. However, it can't protect you from the occasional swirls that the Qotile base fires at you, so dodge them quickly.
