Your task is to fight the Halon, the race which is in control of the light side of the planet, to wrestle controls from them. You are the Delphi, one of two races on a curious planet where one side is perpetually in daylight and the other is perpetually in darkness.

The Halons used to live in the light but recent events have caused their side of the planet to fall go dark and now they are attacking you in an attempt to take over your technology.Īs a Delphin pilot, your job is to stop them and take down of their attacking ships which is what most of the gameplay consists of: Finding enemy ships and killing them.ĭarker is a very atmospheric spaceflight simulator that, ironically, pays too much attention to atmosphere at the expense of playability. Your side of the planet is constantly engulfed in total darkness but the Delphins have adapted to this life. In this spaceflight 'simulator' / 3D shooter, your race (the Delphins) is sharing a far away planet with the Halons.
