- Unlimited Replayability. In addition to all the levels that come with the game, players can create or download additional single level or multilevel "campaign style" add-ons for use with RocketElite.

- Multiple Difficulty Settings: Easy, Medium, Hard, and Insane. There are a number of changes to the game play at each difficulty setting to keep the game challenging for everyone.

- No button problems. The iPAQ version was designed around button limitations.

- Plenty of ship upgrades and power-ups along the way. The ship has 5 categories of ship upgrades that have a total of 6 levels each. The categories are: Fuel Systems, Deflector Shield, Tractor Beam, Weapons, and Defensive Systems.

- Persistent ship upgrades. Once you obtain an upgrade it will stay with you until you complete the campaign.

- Each level has unique graphics and environmental effects to deal with and adapt to.

- All levels in the single player campaign are also designed for multiplayer deathmatch.
