STORY
It is the far future.
A decade ago, humanity achieved it's long dream of contacting life beyond the stars, however said life was not nearly as enthusiastic to learn about our existence, immediately vowing to destroy our home planet and our species as a whole. While unable to visit our solar system directly, our adversaries instead target us through a dangerous antimatter-projectile system, leading to barrages of deadly weaponry.
Fortunately for us, their weapons system has one weakness: Due to it's orbit around the solar system, It's only able to direct it's weapons towards a localized quarter of earth's surface at a time.
Exploiting this weakness, the EARTH LOOP program was created, setting up automated turrets to loop around the earth and neutralize any alien missiles that could pose a theat. However, both advancing alien technology and the effect of the harsh sun rays leading to frequent damage costs has led technology to become obsolete. As a result, earth's governments took to a different strategy to defend earth: genetic engineering
After many long years, you where created: a genetically engineered bioweapon created with the capacity to survive in space. Welded inside a metal container, and with the last of the turrets having finally been destroyed, it is now up to you to run the EARTH LOOP and save humanity from destruction.
