Desert Strike v0.2.0 restores the original four-campaign, 27-mission structure in the standalone recreation.

  • Air Superiority: airfields, commander intelligence and agent extraction.
  • Scud Buster: prison and POW rescues, chemical facilities and timed SCUD interceptions.
  • Embassy City: inspectors, biological silos, sea/yacht rescues, ambassador capture and bus escort.
  • Nuclear Storm: commandos, oil protection and spills, civilian shelters, bomb trucks, palace trap and bomber interception.
  • Mission briefings, intelligence reveals, role-based passengers, countdowns, failure conditions, radar/power effects and fuel conservation over water.
  • Updated README, build instructions and complete campaign/fidelity guide.

Verification: 27 automated tests passed, including eight full simulation playthroughs. Four additional rendered-browser playthroughs completed in Standard mode. Desktop/mobile controls and offline file launch were checked; the standalone game made zero network requests.

Download Desert-Strike-offline.zip, extract it, and open Desert-Strike.html. Windows users may double-click Play.cmd. No build tools, ROM, emulator or server are required.

This follows the original mission structure, but is not an exact port: compact maps, art, enemy behavior, timings and balance remain newly implemented. See the campaign guide for details.
