Firepower 2000

Firepower 2000 is a top-down shoot 'em up where players pilot either a ground-based jeep or a flying helicopter to battle enemy forces. Gameplay involves continuous 8-directional movement with 360-degree shooting, alongside six weapon types (bullet, plasma, flame, missile) that level up through collected icons for multi-shot or extended power. Six levels include bosses at the end, with power-ups granting temporary boosts. No specific named characters appear, but the story follows a military mission to destroy underground bases. What makes it stand out is its heavy weapon upgrade system, responsive controls, and variety of vehicle playstyles reminiscent of arcade classics like Ikari Warriors.
