Silent Bomber is an old school style action & adventure game which takes place in the future. You play as a character named Jutah Fate, a genetically engineered man created by the government. You're an expert at using bombs. You start out being able to set only a few bombs at a time, but eventually you can increase the number by collecting E-Chips. It's a fast paced game of blowing things up before they blow you up.
The gameplay is focused on quick reflexes and strategic bombing. You'll need to navigate through levels, avoiding obstacles and enemies while setting off your bombs in time with incoming threats. With each level completed, you'll earn points and unlock new abilities to take on even tougher challenges.

Game Guide
Extracted from the original game manual
This is a sci-fi action game where the player controls Jutah, a genetically engineered bomb expert, on a stealth mission. You must infiltrate the enemy battleship "DANTE" to destroy its core facilities and save your home planet from forced annexation. The game involves strategic demolition and covert operations against a powerful, oppressive galactic union.
Story
BACKGROUND
It has been 1000 years since the launch of the Space Colony Project. During that time, planet after planet has desired self-determination. Currently, about half of the more than 200 colonized planets have acquired the right of self-government.
THE PLANETS' UNION OF JUSTICE
After a number of wars, Earth's supremacy was upheld by ORUGANERA, a corporation/religious group with overwhelming military and economic power. Due to ORUGANERA's enormous influence, most self-governed colonial planets were forced to conclude treaties with the Planets' Union of Justice.
In ORUGANERA's language, the Union's goal was to "Unite and Administer all the Peoples of Space".
PLANET HORNEJ
Our planet Hornet was colonized hundreds of years ago by people from many nations. The colonists overcame many internal conflicts to emerge as a single Republic.
The Planets' Union of Justice is preparing to take over our peaceful planet with the help of a menacing battleship called the "DANTE".
THE CURRENT SITUATION
The government of the Hornet Republic has decided to resist the "one-sided union treaty" being forced on them by the Planets' Union of Justice. Hornet President Robert May has declared war on the Planets' Union of Justice and organized 2000 spaceships to defend Hornet.
The Planets' Union of Justice has responded by dispatching the Super Battle-Ship DANTE to Hornet, a menacing juggernaut 200 km from stem to stern. If the Hornet Republic doesn't agree to accept the treaty, the Planets' Union will destroy Hornet using the Dante's main weapon, "Felmion".
The Felmion can work its terrible devastation within a targeting range of about 3 million km. Hurry, time is running out!

MISSION BRIEFING
This is Top Secret. Your orders are to board a damaged ship disguised as a Planets' Union of ice transport.
•
Approach battleship Dante.
•
Wait until your ship is picked up.
•
Once inside Dante, destroy key areas of the core facilities.
Your team consists of five convicts under the command of Mission Commander Annri Ohara. If the mission is successful, you will be released from your terms of imprisonment and returned to Planet Hornet.
The mission code is "Operation Toroy." Good luck. Be aware that there will be no communication with us or support of any kind during this mission. Dismissed!
Jutah FATE
Jutah is a genetically engineered man created by the military government TARAKHAN as part of its elite Fighter Engineering Project. He was trained as a military weapon specializing in spying, assassination, and demolition, living only to destroy.
After the collapse of the military government and the establishment of the new Republic, he was sentenced to 300 years in prison. During this term, he had a breakdown when he realized he had been brought into existence only to kill for the convenience of a corrupt government.
Overwhelmed with guilt and confused by his identity as a killing machine, he lost all his emotions. He is the master of the bomb.

**Mission Brief
Tips & Maps
SETTING AND DETONATING BOMBS
Press Button to set a bomb where you want it, preferably on enemy paths. Press Button again to detonate the bomb, ensuring you are at a safe distance.
STACKING AND CHAIN SET
You can set multiple bombs, initially two, and up to eight by collecting E-Chips. Stacking increases explosive power by setting multiple bombs at the same spot, while Chaining uses a sequence of detonations at different locations to eliminate multiple enemies.
BOMB SETTING WITH LOCK ON FEATURE
By holding the Button, a sight appears, automatically locking onto a target. Release the Button to set a bomb on the target, and press Button to trigger it; multiple bombs can be stacked or set on different targets before simultaneous detonation.
VR ARENA
Battle members of Operation Toroy and Planets' Union of Justice characters in this mode, which requires saved data from the regular game mode and allows character selection to expand by collecting Data Chips.
LIFE
You win by depleting your opponent's gauge.
SHIELD
Use the Defense Shield by pressing L1 and R1 Buttons; its gauge decreases while active but restores gradually when not in use.
BOMB CONDITION
Displays the number of stackable bombs and setting conditions, changing color when set and returning to normal after detonation, only for characters using E-Units.
SCORING TIPS
Destroy enemies with high point value to increase your score.
COMBO BONUS
Destroying two or more enemies simultaneously grants a 'Combo Bonus' that multiplies your points, with each additional enemy adding a higher multiplier up to 10 times.
SPECIAL TECHNIQUE
Score very high by destroying strong enemies with big point values at the end of a mission, but be prepared to use many bombs to soften them up first.
EFFECTIVE EXPLOSION AREA
A bomb explosion covers a certain area displayed on screen, destroying anything within it, and this area expands with Stacking technique.
MISSION 2
Material Liquid is essential for fighting three heavily armed and fast-moving enemies; use Paralysis Liquid to stop them, then blast them with Stacking technique while their shield is deactivated during their laser beam fire.
MISSION 1
The four-legged anti-aircraft weapon deploys an impregnable shield after taking damage; attack it when the shield disappears to avoid serious damage.
MISSION 3
Confront various heavily armed enemies with different attack patterns, requiring altered strategies such as using the Lock On function for some, or Material Liquid and floor-set bombs for others.
Items & Weapons
