* ArtificialGravity: More than one area have artificial gravity generators, where terrorists can run along the ceilings and walls while attacking from above. John's high-jumps also allows him to walk upside-down or alongside walls once he gets close to a surface, sticking on contact.

In the future, a terrorist syndicate calling themselves the "Black Dawn" have hijacked a space outpost, the 2CV6 Station. Captain John Ryan, codenamed "[[RedBaron Red Thunderbolt]]" of the SpacePolice squad, is sent to take them down.

* DieHardOnAnX: On a SpaceBase, where terrorists have hijacked the weapons and it's up to John to take them down.
* DoubleJump: A move John can easily pull off by hitting the jump button again when he's in mid-air, thanks to the game being set on a space station with lowered gravity.
* JetPack: In space areas, John sometimes face mooks who hovers around the place using their booster packs.

* PoweredArmor: The Black Dawn's leader and the game's FinalBoss controls one of these, large enough to reach the top of the screen when standing upright, when attacking John for the final battle.
* ReflectingLaser: The game's second-to-last boss is a single turret with mirrors built on the ceiling and opposite wall flanking it, where the laser will fire at John. Dodge that, and the mirrors will catch and reflect the bolts back at John, requiring him to repeatedly dodge while shooting the laser's sole weak spot until it's destroyed.
