Summary
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.
