14 DAY TRIAL // Polish developer group Nibris revealed a little bit of the storyline "Raid over the river DS".
Let me remind you that the game represents vertical shooters and is the first title in a series of two (the second one is going to be realized for Nintendo Wii).
"It's a title which is going to change the current image of a vertical shooter as a meaningless, arcade game which only tests the speed of player's fingers. It is a title which is going to present how big potential, which was not used so far, this kind of games has. It is also a game which through relation to the classics, innovative original solutions, and extensive storyline is going to make playing it a one of a kind experience", says Marek Oko?, ROTR DS game designer.
Considering the genre of the game, the scenario is really extensive, with the story taking place throughout almost 3 000 years, spreading over 6 dimensions related to Earth and putting the characters before choices, consequences of which we will have to bear.
Everything starts when in Peru the archaeologists reveal an artifact of unknown origin. The knowledge it carries enables traveling in time. According to the Deutsch-Everett theory, which describes temporality's paradigm, traveling in your own timeline is impossible. We can, however, go to past or future of Earth in a different dimension, and observe how the history of mankind developed there.
Thanks to this sensational discovery TARPA (Temporal Advanced Research Projects Agency) comes to existence. Its task is to investigate different dimensions and prevent any threat that may come from there.
In the game, the player is the character of agent Carrie Collins, who is a pilot in an air strike quick response group of TARPA. The story begins when a tunnel opens on Earth, from which some scouts from a different dimension emerge. The plot is built upon some forces which change timelines of other worlds for unidentified purpose. During our missions, we will be required to precisely carry out orders, make unexpected alliances, and make choices which will influence the future of our character, as well as the future of all dimensions.
