  • This vehicle can be operated by up to two players: one (the driver) controls the movement and the other (the gunner) fires missiles and shotgun blasts.
  • The driver can:
    • Shoot for combat.
    • Give a super jump to victory.
    • Trample enemies and structures.
      • Collectable items grant materials when destroyed.

      • Head Hit Multiplier: x1,5
  • Missile Launcher
    • Fire up to 10 missiles at a time.
    • Holding the trigger starts reloading the missiles.
    • After releasing the trigger, or after loading 10 missiles, all missiles fire automatically.
