    Overview

    Zero 5 is a polygonal shoot 'em up that originated on the Atari ST - it could only be played on the computer's advanced systems, like the enhanced STe and late-era Falcon - and eventually moved to the Atari Jaguar towards the end of its lifespan.

    Zero 5 switches between three modes for each of its missions: the Z-axis wave-based mode, which resembles Star Fox in that the player is heading towards the screen, though the player can also move the ship around to face different directions; a cockpit mode which has the player eliminating enemies as they appear before they get too close, like a first-person Missile Command; and the trench run, heavily influenced by the movie Star Wars, in which the player has to eliminate enemies while quickly spinning around to avoid barricades littered along the trench.
