Dariusburst: Chronicle Saviours

201576/100
Shooter

Sci-Fi

Dariusburst's defining characteristic is its audacious level design, where the player's ship can unleash a powerful laser beam across the entire screen, slicing through colossal, screen-filling bosses. This beam mechanic, combined with the game's branching paths and multiple ship options, gives each run a unique flavor. The series' unique take on aquatic-themed enemies and the pulse-pounding soundtrack are just icing on the cake, establishing a sense of scale and spectacle that few other shooters can match.

About Dariusburst: Chronicle Saviours

Details
1904 D.C. (Darius Calendar)— When a Belser virus rent the hyperspace network to tatters, every craft in the human space fleet with a network link was stripped of all communications capabilities. The ensuing chaos saw the entire fleet devastated in the blink of an eye. The Silver Hawk fighters were the only craft from Planet Darius to escape the massacre. Equipped with Burst technology, these two cutting-edge craft were entrusted to humanoid AI terminal Ti2 and test pilot Riga Pratica. Flying the Silver Hawk Burst fighters alone into enemy territory without network support, the two heroes braved overwhelming odds to secure victory and liberation for Darius. It is now 1910 D.C., and repairs on the hyperspace network have begun to reconnect the pockets of humanity scattered across the vast reaches of space. Combat data transmitted from Darius soon sees Burst-equipped Silver Hawk fighters constructed in every inhabited galaxy. The stage is set for mankind’s grand counteroffensive. A team of heroes takes wing, flying into battle and the pages of history.
