The year is 2283. A battle for artifacts has been raging between the Space Federation and gangs of pirates. The artifacts were left by a vanished extraterrestrial civilization on the planet Mars. You are the commander of combat squadron Antares-1 and only you can repel hordes of vicious and greedy pirates. Unfortunately circumstances are such that the soldiers of your Squadron failed to beat the enemy to the specified area they have already arrived. You will have to fight alone. Martial shuttles recently fell into the hands of pirates but they are learning how to drive them. Use this weakness against them! The Orbital Cruiser tracking the situation from above will help you in battle tracking enemies on radar as well as periodically recharging your battle craft and modifying your weaponry. The game was created in pseudo-3D so battles appear lush and spectacular.
