Outline
An innovative visual action shooting game that uses PlayStation3’s processing capacity while retaining the old-time graphic style of the 8-bitera. Players operate an underground search vessel and defeat monsters who try to attack them as they try to rescue survivors stranded in caves, while the configuration can be changed to settings such as “Ground ruptures and water pours in” and “Magma hardens in the water,” making this a game with a strong puzzlesolving element.
