Initializing data transfer… Stardate: 3024. The Earth has been attacked by hostile individuals and has been entirely destroyed; few survivors managed to board freight ships to safety.

Spaceship fighter pilots are authorized to use any force necessary to neutralize the enemy ships. Avoid the security drones and pick up the energy sources they leave behind to upgrade your weapon systems. Navigate asteroid belts and prepare to fight for your life or to the death against the galactic invaders. End of log. System shutting down.
