Sol Attack is a blistering HD arcade game for the PC.

Have serious fun battling an array of ships throughout the Solar System in a frantic attempt to stop a massive alien invasion, but be warned: This is not some pansy little feel-good shooter that holds your hand all the way to the final screen. This game acts like you're plopping in quarters. It wants you to lose.

Once upon a time, three-letter demigods would etch their names in the high score lists of arcade games the world over. Defeating wave after wave of attackers, these heroes of another era possessed a skill that brought down the most sophisticated machines of the day. Their hand-eye coordination was a wonder to behold.

Alas, as the great arcades fell to ruin and rust, so did the masters. Forced into mundane worlds of management and simulation, they became slow and dim-witted; the skill of the true gamer rarely tested... until now.
