The
scenario tells of an hybrid plant/artificial intelligence, DIA
51, which decided to rebel against human kind and planned its
destruction. The hybrid computer is spreading as plants, with
its vegetable tentacles. In the general chaos, YURI, the beloved
one of our hero, RAY WAIZEN, get hurted and sent to hospital.
So RAY got all the reasons in the world to wish the plague DIA
51 to be dead.
Thus begins the battle on a vertical scrolling one more time,
for a hard mission but so exciting mission.
The
