A behind-the-view perspective of a shooter's dream: Blast enemies against a cinematic backdrop. Kill the computer-controlled fighters before they take over the world!

Unlike first-generation interactive movies with action, Novastorm has hooks into the environment; if you move into the path of a pre-rendered obstacle and it "hits" you, you take damage, etc.

  Manufacturer's description:

The human race is complacent. Computers take care of everything. Nothing can possibly go wrong. Until one day, the most dangerous information superhighway in history starts preaching armed revolution.

The Gospel of Silicon Against Flesh...

In the gut wrenching, heart stopping ride of a lifetime, pilot the Scavenger 4 space fighter between canyons, over glaciers and through cities in a one-on-one showdown with the deadly Scarab X. This heroic, high-flying blast 'em up features playability, amazing full motion video sequences and a shredding rave soundtrack.

Novastorm will chew you up and spit you out. But you'll come back begging for more...
