The world itself is a typical anime sci-fi setting in which humans fled earth following a great disaster, and after 1500 years are only now returning to the planet. Much of the story takes place in colonies set up across the solar system. While the Aria Federation acts as a systemwide government, much of the police activity and military work is actually handled by private security organizations run by large corporations such as Goddiver. Many character backgrounds harken to an incident in the past known as the Embassy Occupation Incident, where terrorists took several hundred people hostage, then self-destructed, killing dignitaries, ambassadors, and civilians.

The game is best known for the way it incorporates [[Shoot'Em Up]] features, particularly the fact that each Rounder possesses a superpowered boss mode (called [[Fun With Acronyms|B.O.S.S.]]) which, when activated, turns the player from a small fighter into a large-scale boss with many intricate attack patterns.
