About This Game
ALLTYNEX was built to serve. It was also built to think. One day, those two functions stopped pointing in the same direction, and the supercomputer decided it was done serving humanity and considerably more interested in destroying it. The player deploys against ALLTYNEX's forces in a hybrid craft that shifts between a standard fighter — spread-shot attacks and a homing laser — and a mecha configuration that trades speed for a devastating short-range sword and a powerful beam weapon. Energy management governs secondary weapon duration; dealing damage and destroying enemies recharges the meter. Five stages stand between the player and a machine with its entire infrastructure behind it.
