Descpription:
Xain'd Sleena is an side-scrolling arcade videogame
from 1986. The main character, Xain, is a galactic bounty-hunter or freedom
fighter who must defeat evil forces who oppress five planets, each with different
weather and geology, including forest, desert, and volcanoes, and a final metallic planet.
Each planet is played with horizontal scroll, and after a final stage boss, the player
plants a bomb (to the boss's shelter), jumps to a spaceship and plays an interlude stage
during which he must break through enemy ships while heading to the next planet.
After three planets there is a fight against a giant mothership. The player can select
the order in which he wants to play the various planets, so, there is no 'official' sequence of play.
The planets:Cleemalt Soa: An asteroid level without obvious atmosphere. Lagto Soa: A jungle world full of giant insects, carnivorous plants. Cleedos Soa: Desert world. Think Dune, including sandworms. Kworal Soa: Underwater world—full of fish, jellyfish, and lobster-like aliens. Guwld Soa: The volcanic world. Metallic Planet: This level is very long and features a few unique enemies.
