Along with the ship's primary weapons, the player also has access to three bombs: one that creates a wave of fire that starts from behind the ship and moves upwards the along that stage, another which makes a powerful circular nova-like blast and a last one that shoots several mini-missiles capable of homing in on multiple targets. Viewpoint has six different stages, each with its own enemy type and bosses.
