Extra Ship	The player must shoot the three objects to make an arwing appear in the middle. The player must then fly through the ship in order to gain a 1-Up.	File:SF-Extra Ship.jpg

[edit] Objective

The goal for every mission is to destroy the Enemy Leader that waits at the end of the stage. The Arwing is equiped with an auto pilot device which keeps it on course to the final enemy. This keeps the player locked in a fixed path, forcing them to navigate through a series of obstacles and enemies. If the player ventures too far towards the edge of the flight path, arrows will guide them back to the main course.
