Sol-Feace (ソル・フィース) is a 1990 shoot-'em-up for the X68000 by Wolf Team. It was ported to the Sega Mega-CD and in North America, to the Sega Mega Drive by Renovation Products under the name Sol-Deace.

Story

In the year 3300, a supercomputer called GCS-WT is built to unite society (spread out over 300 solar systems) through diplomacy, but decides to spiral society into a dystopia it rules as a dictator. Only the scientist Edwin Feace was able to escape GCS-WT's reign — by leaving the solar system and settling a newly discovered planet, where he builds the Sol-Feace, a ship which, when mass produced, should form a sizable enough army to defeat GCS-WT. Unfortunately, GCS-WT finds out and kills Feace and the natives of the new planet who aid him, leaving only two soldiers and one Sol-Feace to stop GCS-WT.

Gameplay

Sol-Feace is a horizontally scrolling shoot-'em-up: , , and all shoot and can be held down for rapid-fire. The player's ship has three weapons mounted at different points: top, middle, and bottom (relative to the player's perspective).

Power-ups can be found by shooting capsules. Weapon power-ups can be grabbed with the top, middle, or bottom of the ship, which determines where they are mounted. It is possible to have three different weapons mounted, each at a different position. The angle of the ship's outer weapons can be adjusted by moving without firing. Moving opens the bottom weapon and closes the top weapon. Moving opens the top weapon and closes the bottom weapon. Moving closes both weapons, and moving opens both weapons.

The player loses a life if the ship collides with an enemy or object. The game starts with four extra lives. The game ends if the player loses a life without any extra lives remaining.

There are two difficulty levels, Normal and Mania, and the player can choose between three speed levels before the game starts.

History

Sol-Feace was one of the Mega-CD launch titles to be released, debuting in Japan in December 1991 as one of two launch titles for the system (the other being Heavy Nova). It was also a launch title for the Mega-CD in Europe, sharing a box with Cobra Command and being bundled with launch units in the United Kingdom and Italy. It would also be bundled with launch North American Sega CD units, and as it was never given a stand-alone release, effectively went out of production when the redesigned Sega CD units went on sale.

During development the game was known as Hyper Attax.

 ==History==
-''Sol-Feace'' was one of the earliest Mega-CD games to be released, debuting in Japan in December 1991 as one of two launch titles for the system (the other being ''[[Heavy Nova]]''). It was also a launch title for the Mega-CD in Europe, sharing a box with ''[[Cobra Command]]'' and being bundled with launch units in the United Kingdom and Italy. It would also be bundled with launch North American Sega CD units, and as it was never given a stand-alone release, effectively went out of production when the redesigned Sega CD units went on sale.
