Premise: |
Earth has been turned into a wasteland by centuries of abuse. This is just
fine to the galactic terrorist organization Gulfer, who plan to use all that waste to make
some pretty nasty weapons. Dan Dare, a resourceful fighter jock, is the underdefended
Earth's only hope against this menace. |
Impressions: |
The music is nice and catchy. The graphics are somewhat pixelated, but
still give the sensation of flight. Oh, let's not forget the nifty little grappling hook
that comes with your ship, which you can use to snag your enemies and suck energy from
them, adding to your own supply - a truly original idea. Even so, this is a game that only
the hardest of hardcore shooter fans might want just to add to their collection.
