About the Game

Story
In the year 248 of the Space Era, an abnormality occurred in the defense system that supported human life. Unmanned weapons began destroying orbital industrial plants. The space government, which relied on computers, was powerless to do anything about the situation. Suddenly, an unknown fighter jet appeared, fighting against the unmanned weapons. The words CRYSTAL BREAKER were written on the side of the cockpit.

Overall:
This game is an aggressive shmup where close range attacks and quick destruction are important for both stage clear and score attacks.
