Star Soldier - Vanishing Earth
|
Description |
Star Soldier: Vanishing Earth takes place in the far future, where you are the last hope for Earth, which is being attacked by an alien race. The game features a top-down 3D scroller, similar to that of the arcade games 1943 or Raiden. You can take control of different space crafts, each with different advantages and disadvantages, and different weapons. The rule is 1 hit-kill. After 3 lives, you have to restart the level. There is no saving feature, however a lengthy password is provided to you at the end of each level, so long you have the patience to put it in each time you turn off the game. Each level is about 3-5 minutes long, each with it's own tough boss at the end. Each level has its own secret path to take, depending on what you shoot (ex. shoot wall, reveal secret path). All levels lead up to a final boss in the end. |

Secrets
|
Secret levels In the game, there are some secret missions one can access by meeting certain criteria: Secret Mission 1: Destruction - In Mission 2: Corrosion, after destroying the first door inside the base, there are five floating towers--the outer four are blue and the center one is red. Shoot the blue towers and then the red one, and you'll open up an underground tunnel that eventually leads to the secret mission. Secret Mission 2: Scars: - About 1/5 into Mission 3: Invaded, several blue ships line up in front of a single red one. Destroy ONLY the red ship. Rather than enter the space station, you will fly over it and eventually enter the secret mission. Secret Mission 3: Reminiscence - In Mission 4; Pursuit, after passing by the series of launch bays but before entering the canyon, four blue ships will face you. Eventually, four red ships will line up behind the blue ones. Again, destroy only the red ships, avoiding the blue ones. Done correctly, your ship will change course and travel into a secret section of the canyon where your ship will be teleported to the secret mission. |
