This game eludes my grasp. I do not know what is happening on the radar screen. Which of the indecipherable dots am I controlling, if any? What am I aiming for?

The space fight itself is also nonsensical. I'm clearly in first-person aiming a target reticle at enemy ships. But if the enemy blasts hit the reticle I take damage?? Is the target reticle me?? Then how come it can touch the enemies??

Radar mode is arcane nonsense to me. The battle mode is pretty basic first person shooting.
