Space Outlaw Alice
About
Space Outlaw Alice is a retro game that brings together two different genres. The game follows the main character, the outlaw Alice, as she gets targeted by the corrupt government of the Earth Union and needs to deal with mysterious extra-dimensional monsters that appeared out of nowhere. As she runs through the stages, the player will experience a classic platform action with a lot of jumping and shooting. However, when the time comes to pilot Seraph, her giant robot, the game will shift to a horizontal shoot'em up with even more shooting. Space Outlaw Alice is highly inspired by the classic games of the Famicom video game console and the mecha anime genre. Its plot and characters are carefully presented through 8-bit cutscenes between the stages.
History
The year is 2378 A.D. Humanity is already expanding into space, but its
progress is being held back by the corrupt regulation of Earth Union.
In addition to the inability to rely on its own government, both Earth
and space are plagued by criminal activities and terrorist attacks.
Alice, fearless outlaw and captain of the spaceship Valiant Gear,
accepts a job to raid a military facility and gets caught up in a
situation that will determine the fate of the world. Targeted by the
Earth Union army and facing the coming of extra-dimensional creatures
that threatens to exterminate all forms of life, she and her crew will
need to make a decision. Run and mind their own business or join the
battle and help everyone?
