Time Pilot '84: Further Into the Unknown World is an eight-directional scrolling shooter developed by Konami and released in 1984. It follows the original Time Pilot and continues the time-traveling adventure. In this game, the player controls a spaceship that travels through various historical eras. Instead of labeling each stage with a specific year like the first game, the time periods are identified by unique enemy designs and color schemes. The game features a wide variety of enemy types, each with distinct movement behaviors, challenge levels, and scoring values. The first button allows the player to fire regular bullets, effective against green enemies. The second button launches missiles, which are needed to defeat silver-colored foes. To use missiles, the player must target a silver enemy first. Accumulating enough kills on green enemies summons a large silver boss that must be destroyed before progressing to the next stage.
