Why Are You Shooting me!?

I started playing Minishoot Adventures today. I haven't played a twin-stick shooter in a long time, but it didn't take long to remember how they feel. The controls are smooth and easy. Initially, you're alone in this world until you fly around and encounter another machine. "Are you friend?" I wondered. It came closer to my plane and I let it. It killed me. Not friend then. As with most games like this, things start shooting at you the moment you enter the screen and I wondered why. Sure, I'm an unknown object, but am I an enemy? Am I a threat? In games we shoot first and ask questions later.
