DESCRIPTION

Star Shatterer: The Gathering Storm offers warfare for brave spacefarers on both sides of the command console. Player can take the role of a fighter pilot, to embark on dangerous dog-fighting missions, or that of a starship captain, who eventually becomes responsible for the tactical maneuvers of an entire fleet. Whether from the cockpit or the captain's chair, experience and promotions allow the player's character to develop into a key figure in the protection and expansion of the known galaxy.

Captains serve the cause through real-time strategy gameplay, in which they guide various space vessels to perform in unified efficiency. Pilots can eventually develop their skills to the point of performing hands-on take-offs and landings, dangerous patrols, escort missions, and bombing runs. The game's storyline develops dynamically, in part according to the player's successes, failures, and role-playing decisions, thus offering a unique new universe to be won each time the game is played. ~ T.J.
