Star Fox

Star Fox is a rail shooter in a third-person and first-person 3D perspective. The player must navigate Fox's spacecraft, an Arwing, through environments while various enemies (spaceships, robots, creatures, etc.) attack him. Along the way various power-ups are placed in the stage to help the player. The player receives a score on each level based on how many enemies destroyed and how well the player has defended his/her teammates. At the end of each level there is a boss that the player must defeat before progressing to the next level. This game takes place in the Lylat system, a stellar system in the fictional Star Fox universe that is inhabited by anthropomorphic animal races (i.e. foxes, frogs, dogs, birds, rabbits, apes, etc.). It contains the planets Corneria and Venom, both representing good and evil, respectively. One can visit many other planets, asteroid belts, space stations, etc. while going through the course of the game. Whichever path the player chooses affects what places they will encounter. Star Fox is an elite mercenary unit hired by General Pepper to defeat Andross. Fox McCloud is the leader of the team, and he is accompanied by his teammates Falco Lombardi, Peppy Hare, and Slippy Toad. The player controls Fox, while Falco, Peppy and Slippy occasionally come to his aid or need his help.
