Game description: A highly classified prototype mech was stolen from the allied forces in southern Japan and it's up to you to get it back! Take control of monstrous mechs and brave soldiers. Immerse yourself in detailed 3D battle sequences with an exciting style of gameplay that mixes in-depth strategy and real-time action as you lead the allies to victory.
The game is based on an alternate history theory that after the defeat of Nazi Germany and Fascist Italy near the end of World War II, Japan was conquered and occupied by both Soviet and American forces - rather than solely by the US, as in actual history.


Test configurations on Windows:

Region OS CPU/GPU Revision Graphics Sound/Pad
PAL Windows 7 Home Premium x64
  • AMD Phenom II X6 1055T
  • Auzentech X-Fi Forte

  • LilyPad svn (r4510) 0.10.0
BIOS: Europe v01.60, FPS: 10-50, FMVs such as the one at the intro crash the game (skippable with START), with later ones preventing players from finishing it. There seems to be noticeable slowdown (down to ~10FPS) when reading from the disc, though after loading is complete the game plays smoothly with only some very minor graphical glitches in the battle action icons. 24.132.197.33

Perfectly playable (so far, first few missions) since 1.0.0, with some minor occasional sound and graphics glitches. There also seems to be a grid of sorts visible in menus and cutscenes, though it's easy enough to ignore. Seems to cause crashes with SPU2-X set to XAudio2 on my system, but DirectSound is fine.
