''Solar Winds: The Escape'' and its sequel ''Solar Winds: Galaxy'' also known as ''Solar Winds II: Universe'' are top-down, space-themed action games developed by James Schmalz and published by Epic MegaGames in . The main character of both games, bounty hunter Jake Stone, takes on a series of missions that has him fighting robots, aliens, and rebels in ship-to-ship combat. The story is told through simple conversations and brief cutscenes. In some ways, the series is reminiscent of the much larger and more complex Star Control II, without the ship customization and fleet building aspects. ==Plot== In "The Escape", humans live in a solar system millions of light years from our own. Space travel is common within the solar system, but hyperdrive research is restricted; any research pertaining to hyperdrive travel is destroyed by the oppressive solar government's army of robots. However, one group has spent a decade in secret developing a hyperdrive ship and plans to use it to escape the force field encasing their solar system. The government hires Stone to stop them. It is eventually revealed that the solar government is conspiring with a race of "overlord" aliens to stop the development of hyperdrive technology. These overlords keep various species for study, and actively push these species toward war for reasons unknown. Travel to other solar systems is barred by enormous, invisible force fields erected around the systems. The overlord aliens and their agents travel by means of fixed, self-made portals, or wormholes, opened with special keys. Ultimately, Stone is able to travel through one of the portals where he is greeted by a group of agitators from the overlords. They want him to help them stop the cruel treatment of these species. In "Universe", Jake Stone must continue his work with these agitators to disrupt the portals. Meanwhile, a human colony fleet from Earth is heading for the force field surrounding Earth's solar system. Ultimately Stone is able to work for the enemy in order to get close enough to destroy the Controller that maintains the portals leading to the various worlds, thus freeing these worlds, including Earth. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Solar Winds」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
