The United Human Government (UHG) controls most of the known space. They have held a tight grip on all the colonized worlds under their watch. However, when the people challenged their power, a Civil War was ignited.
In the middle of this conflict, Pilot #8, a test pilot, arrives on the planet 1IL-101 to fly a new prototype strike craft, the MF-01 Aerostrike. In the middle of a test run, the planet is attacked and occupied by the Rebels opposing the UHG.
Now trapped in a gigantic underground base, Pilot #8 must rely on his skills, his ship, and the on-board assistant AI called A.R.I.A., to find a way to escape the planet alive. He must find a way to return to his family.
