Slordax: The Unknown Enemy Overview
Slordax: The Unknown Enemy is a vertical scrolling shooter presented with EGA visuals. Its narrative premise involves a long dormant alien threat, the Slordax, re emerging to menace the galaxy after a conflict centuries prior.
Players assume the role of a pilot for the Intergalactic Defense Alliance, operating a vessel called the RedDog Adaptive Strike Ship. The objective is to eliminate this returning enemy before its power becomes insurmountable. A notable mechanical feature distinguishes the experience: the player has direct control over the rate of the screen's scrolling movement.
The game structure consists of five distinct levels, following a conventional pattern for its genre.
