Level Structure
The Raiden Fighters series introduces a partially non-linear level structure. The first two games have seven levels each. These seven levels are arranged into three Missions. The first two Missions have three levels each: two randomly ordered short levels (lasting about one minute in length before the boss encounter) ending with a long boss level, which involves making strikes against different parts of the boss, and lasts between three and four minutes. The final Mission in both of the first two games is a lengthy approach over the main enemy base.
Raiden Fighters Jet's level structure is even less linear. Progression is governed by how well a player performs in a given level, and each level path gives a different end-game sequence. Players can never play through all levels available in Raiden Fighters Jet in one play session.

Famous quotes containing the words level and/or structure:
“It may be well to remember that the highest level of moral aspiration recorded in history was reached by a few ancient Jews—Micah, Isaiah, and the rest—who took no count whatever of what might not happen to them after death. It is not obvious to me why the same point should not by and by be reached by the Gentiles.”
—Thomas Henry Huxley (1825–95)
“The philosopher believes that the value of his philosophy lies in its totality, in its structure: posterity discovers it in the stones with which he built and with which other structures are subsequently built that are frequently better—and so, in the fact that that structure can be demolished and yet still possess value as material.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
