Warp is a 1989 multidirectional shooter developed and published by Thalion Software for the Atari ST. It was ported later to the Amiga.
The player is a criminal who has stolen a spaceship and encounters an evil alien race called Myrons that are about to destroy Earth. The objective is to destroy all alien power stations before they energise and blow up Earth. The game features 16-directional scrolling and 10 levels linked by warp tunnels.[2] The spaceship has two weapons: a light laser used for weaker enemies and a more powerful blaster weapon used for armoured enemies. The game has an energy system where the ship's limited amount of energy can be focused on either weapons, fuel, or shields.[3]
