Chase Ace 2 is a fast paced single or multi player action shooter game. You
control a spaceship, and the objective is to shoot down your enemy, be that
the guy next to you, the guys in the other end of the IPX network or the AI
enemies. Chase Ace 2 features explosive special effects in a stylised
scrolling 2D environment.

Customise
Chase Ace 2 can be customised in many ways - for instance you can change the
amount of bullets each player can have, the maximum shield amount, ship
maximum speed and even the overall speed of the entire game. If you prefer
certain power ups above others, you just switch off the ones you don't want.

The Level Editor that ships with Chase Ace 2 enables you to create your own
advanced levels. You can set up your level exactly the way you want to. You
can include advanced trigger logic that activates different doors, you can
create traps triggered by invisible switches and much more

The looks of your Chase Ace 2 copy can even be altered. From the Chase Ace
Homepage, you can download extra graphic sets that you can use when creating
levels.

The Arena
The arena consists of a large number of different elements. All of these
elements can be placed anywhere on the arena, and tied together using the
trigger features of the Chase Ace 2 Level Editor.

Obstacles
The arena is made from obstacles of different kinds. An obstacle is a wall,
that is either indestructible or destructible. Obstacles can be skewed in
different angles.

Re-fuel / re-shield
When you get hit, your shield goes down, so you have to go to re-shield -
this can be dangerous if your enemy is waiting
for you at re-shielding zone. Also you have to refuel your ammo stock along
the way.

Safe zones
In the safe zones you can take a rest from the action. While you are in a
safe zone, you can't get shot, but can't shoot either.

Black Holes
Black Holes are not an immediate threat. They pull your spaceship towards
them, but they don't kill you. You bullets get attracted by the holes, which
makes it difficult to aim. When you are at the centre of the black hole, your
bullets cannot reach the outer perimeter of the hole.

Gravitational fields
Gravitational fields are invisible and pulls your ship in a predefined
direction. Like Black Holes they're not an immediate threat.

One-way zones
You can only move in the arrow's direction in one-way zones. They can form
traps from which you cannot escape, and your opponent can blast you to pieces.

Acid
Acid eats your shield! Bounce your opponent onto them and watch him fry!

Holes
The shortcut into deep space. Stay clear of them.

Bombs
Don't get too close, or they will detonate! - Spawns at random positions on
the level during the game. Detonates if shot setting of major chain reactions.

Worm Holes
Worm Holes are transports that in warp speed sends your spaceship to another
part of the arena. Worm Holes can be both visible and hidden.

Doors
Different parts of the arena can be sealed by doors that can behave in
different manners. Doors can be time or trigger activated, or they can open
and close on interval. Don't get caught in them!!

Pistons
Pistons move back and forth in their track. You can use them as lifts to
other parts of the arena, or as traps, triggered by different events. Don't
get squished in them!!

Triggers
Triggers are elements that trigger other elements or events. They can be
obstacle-like so you'll have to shoot them, or be a part of the floor, so you
activate them as you pass them. Triggers can be both visible and hidden.

Turrets
Different kinds of turrets can pop up everywhere, or in places you define.
They have different firepower and aiming capabilities.

Boxes
Small boxes will randomly appear on the arena. When shot to pieces, some of
them may contain valuable power ups.

Power Ups
Chase Ace 2 features 25+ different power ups. Different power ups can be
combined into spectacular weapons; Tripple Shots + Mortars + Enemy Seek + Hi
Speed Shots = You guess what...
