Product Description:

Join Lancer Squad, an elite team of flight capable soldiers, on their current mission to defeat the diabolical war machine of an alien army bent on taking over the universe. Taking the battle to the alien factories over the diverse landscapes of their home world, Active Lancer pits you (and a friend of you have need) against wave after wave of alien ships, tanks, boats, and gun turrets over 15 levels of increasing intensity. It's straight up vertical scrolling arcade shooter action.

Fissure

I think the lack of gamepad support is a shame (or has this problem been fixed? ) but I can't really comment on how much I wish there was support, you know, lacking video support and all.


Upon starting the game it makes the wrong decision of choosing the 2nd monitor to play on. Why a game would prefer the second monitor over the primary one I have no idea, but it isn't very nice (especially because the main one is much bigger). Now I wouldn't mind using that monitor if I could, in fact, use it to play the game. But whenever the gameplay in actively being rendered all it shows is black. (while it's paused I can see fine, and I can see all the menu's and videos)
