 A CHIP OFF THE SHIP is an action/puzzle game set in a distant galaxy where you, an unlikely captive, must escape from your detainers and get home.

Story: 

The year is 20XX after the HZR crisis… You are an interstellar hero who finds yourself captured by unforeseen forces. Locked and stripped of your tools, you must break free and find a way back home to take care of your children and not grade assignments. Along the way you will face various trials you must overcome if you wish to go back to the life you once led before.

Characters:

Chip Manley - The Hero

 A man of average height and slender build, Chip is a heroic figure who never ran from a fight.

Villain: Alan Mattano*

Alan was a young programmer until one day, he suddenly disappeared. As an avid sailboat enthusiast, he was able to successfully retrofit his sailboat into an interstellar sailboat during the golden age of space travel, but he became crazed and obsessed with finding the person who beat him in that one sailing competition in 2043. He obtains knowledge from otherworldly beings and he begins to plot revenge on the one who took it all away. As the kingpin of the interspace Tunnel Snakes, his team of space robbers, he travels space and is known to plunder victims at his whim. Written on his ship is a motto “se podría agregar alguna funcin es especial”. Nobody knows what it means.

Most of the game will take place on an interstellar ship, as you are progressing to defeat your captors and save the others on the ship.
