ACTIVE LANCER


Join Lancer Squad, an elite team of flight capable soldiers, on their current mission to defeat the diabolical war machine of an alien army bent on taking over the universe. Taking the battle to the alien factories over the diverse landscapes of their home world, Active Lancer pits you (and a friend if you have need) against wave after wave of alien ships, tanks, boats, and  gun turrets over 15 levels of increasing intensity. It's straight up vertical scrolling arcade shooter action.

This demo restricts you to two levels, one pilot, and one boss.  There is also no network play in the demo.  The full retail version contains many more sound tracks, cut-scenes, levels, pilots, and more!

The full version of Active Lancer is available for $19.95 from the Freeverse Software Store.

Please note that the Active Lancer Demo has been prepared and specially optimized for compactness.  A side-effect is that the graphics engine and the audio engine of this demo incurs some additional processing, resulting in lower performance and lower visual and audio quality than the full retail version of Active Lancer.  You can expect a performance increase, graphics quality increase, and audio quality increase when running the full version.

Additionally, audio artifacts including, but not limited to, occasional static noise may result.  Please be aware that these side effects, if they exist in this demo, will not exist in the full retail version.  The full retail version also includes many more sound tracks recorded at a much higher quality level.

The opening cut-scene has also been cut significantly to save space.  The opening narration and story is therefore not present in this demo.  Most of the sound tracks have also been cut significantly to save space.
