OVERVIEW

So you survived the Solar System's infestation. You couldn't be happier that you are approaching your base in the Asteroid Belt. Now all you need to do is collect your pay and be back to Earth to enjoy some well needed rest and a couple of therapy sessions. Well you couldn't be more wrong. You find that PTMC hasn't exactly been upfront with you concerning your contract.

The alien infestation has finally been tracked to the Zeta Aquile system. With your PYRO GX Ship now powered by a warp core, you can easily jump there -- whether you like it or not. The robots you faced before were cuddly toys compared to what you're going to be fighting this time. But don't worry, new weapons and your loyal guide-bot will help you get through each mine. Ultimately, you'll take on the Alien Base and finally put an end to this menace -- Maybe.

FEATURES

Full 360 degree environment (true 3-D)

30 new highly intelligent robots -- some that suck energy and track you down whereever you go. Also beware of the Thief-bot who will steal weapons and other tools needed to do your job.

30 new levels in 6 different worlds, including Water, Fire, Ice, and the Alien Base. Watch for secret levels!

Afterburner to increase maximum speed

10 new weapons (you're gonna need 'em for these new robots!

A floodlight you can turn on and off (But remember to turn it off when you don't need it!)

Redbook CD music track by Ogre (of Skinny Puppy), Type O Negative, and others
