Soukyugurentai (a.k.a. Terra Diver) is a vertical-scrolling Shoot'Em Up published by Eighting Raizing in 1996 for the Sega Saturn ST-V hardware, later ported to the Sega Saturn proper and the Playstation. Its gameplay is distinguished by having lock-on weapons similar to the Ray Series, except able to lock on to 3-D wireframe areas. Its music was composed by Hitoshi Sakimoto and Manabu Namiki.
In the year 2050, space mining operations are becoming competitive as the Eight Luck Interstellar Development Inc. starts muscling in on other companies in an aggressive manner. The Jin-Sei Corporation teams up with Japan to counteract Eight Luck. It is now up to a few pilots and their advanced space ships to save the day.
Tropes used in Soukyugurentai include:
- Animal Wrongs Group: The violence in the game is blamed on these kinds of groups to hide the truth.
