Mission Cobra Overview
Mission Cobra is a scrolling action game where the player pilots a helicopter against enemy aircraft. The core objective is to eliminate a final commander after progressing through numerous waves of hostile forces.
Gameplay involves shooting moving targets while managing a health system; contact with enemy fire depletes energy, and losing it all results in failure. To aid in this challenging progression, temporary power-ups can be collected. These items provide benefits such as brief invulnerability, enhanced weapon capability, and refueling.
The experience supports a cooperative mode, allowing a second player to join as a partner. Both participants face the same sequence of enemy waves culminating in a confrontation with an end-stage boss that must be destroyed to succeed.
