| War is over. War is just beginning. |
| |
| Planetary Calendar 214. Four years have passed since the end of the |
| Solar War. Our protagonist, scarred from the loss of his crewmates |
| in the war, is re-assigned to the Jovian patrol ship Gun-Dog as |
| it's dispatched with orders to investigate mysterious signals |
| coming from the edge of Jovian Space. |
| |
| Unknown to the Gun-Dog's crew, a new danger looms deep in the ocean |
| of stars, threatening not just the Gun-Dog but all her crew. |
| |
| Take on the role of the Gun-Dog's security officer as you attempt |
| to save the ship from an unknown assailant whilst navigating the |
| paranoia, conspiracies and vendettas that break out amongst the |
| crew. As camaraderie falls apart can you overcome the challenges |
| that await? |
| |
| The Game - A love letter to retro anime and 80s Sci-Fi. |
| |
| Stories from Sol: The Gun-Dog is a visual novel adventure in the |
| spirit of classic PC-9800 titles. Featuring a vintage green screen |
| aesthetic, Space Colony Studios strives to create an "era-accurate" |
| game that exudes retro vibes in every way, from the text to the |
| visual effects. As the Jovian patrol ship sails into the darkness |
| among the stars, the players will feel like they are on an |
| adventure in an 80s Sci-Fi as they solve the mystery they find |
| themselves in. |
| |
| The Story - A new threat emerges from the void. |
| |
| Humans have long since freed themslves from the grasp of gravity, |
| but they are still unable to escape the hold of war. |
| |
| It's year 214 of the Planetary Calendar. Four years have passed |
| since the end of the Solar War and an uneasy peace persists |
| throughout the solar system. The Jovian patrol ship Gun-Dog is sent |
| on a reconnaissance mission to investigate mysterious signals |
| coming from the edge of Jovian space. What starts as a routine |
| assignment quickly escalates into a battle for survival as an |
| unknown threat terrorises the crew. |
| |
| The Gameplay - Investigate. Interact. Analyse. Advance. |
| |
| Utilising traditional point-and-click adventure mechanics, during |
| your time on the Gun-Dog, you can navigate various locations on the |
| ship, examine the details of the richly realised backgrounds or |
| talk with the different crew members on board. You will need to |
| listen closely to the characters' words to reveal important clues |
| or duplicitous intentions and keep your eyes peeled for key items |
| and interactive elements in the backgrounds that you can use to |
| advance the story. |
| |
| The Place - Adventure in a entirely explorable ship! |
| |
| The main stage of the first instalment in the "Stories from Sol" |
| series, as the Jovian patrol ship Gun-Dog heads into deep space it |
| serves as the setting for the game's story. It has been |
| exhaustively realised. Rich and evocative descriptions of the ship, |
| including the constant rumble of the engine room, the bustle of the |
| bridge, the silence of space pair with an extensive range of scenes |
| that have been meticulously designed and animated in detail to |
| deliver an immersive experience. Inspired by the best that anime |
| has to offer the ship even features "Armoured Frames", mechanised, |
| human shaped, weapons of war. |
| |
| The Characters - Get on board with the crew of the Gun-Dog! |
| |
| All stories are about people and the cast of "The Gun-Dog" bring |
| the story to life, so much so that their charm and charisma |
| convinced the team at Astrolabe Games to board the Gun-Dog and sign |
| up to be the publisher. From the elegant yet distant Captain |
| Bartermews, to the bubbly Lieutenant Commander Cassandra Quinn, to |
| the assertive and domineering Chief Mackenzie Cathays, "The |
| Gun-Dog" features an extensive cast of characters for you to meet. |
| Each crew member has a distinct personality, role and history. Get |
| to know them and their quirks and decide whether to work with or |
| against them to unravel the mystery that lies at the story's heart. |
