This is a sci-fi sequel to the unique Captain Blood. Bob Morlock, a
biomechanical mastermind and founder of a massive company called Kanary is the
oldest being in existence thanks to scientific advances. Knowing his time in
this universe is nearing an end, he would like to see the Big Bang and the beginning
of the universe. Kanary's Clone Consortium branch builds Commander Blood in order to
help Morlock achieve his goal. Commander Blood is placed on a high-tech ship, the
Ark, and aided by Honk, Blood’s onboard computer personality; the Orxx, Blood’s
biomechanical 'clone'; Olga, Blood’s onboard translator; a radio, television set;
and other technology. Communication with the game’s characters is carried on
clicking on a series of words that serve as topics. Captain Blood utilized UPCOM
(icon-based communication system), while Commander Blood makes use of a multiple-
choice conversation system, in which players click through word-choices in order to
learn more information. The game focuses on Commander Blood’s interactions with the
denizens of the worlds players travel to in search for the Big Bang. Thus, the game
makes use of complex graphics that depict orbiting planetary systems, expressive
characters (represented by live action puppeteering), and an onboard television,
with different channels to watch. |
