Dolphin Squadron

About

Dolphin Squadron is a fast paced vertical shooter where you pilot a mechanized dolphin through waves of mines and enemy crafts. Focusing on quick reflexes and precise dodging, the game tasks you with clearing underwater hazards while avoiding collisions. The controls prioritize responsiveness over complexity, making it an arcade style challenge with a focus on high speed action. Each level escalates the difficulty with tighter corridors and faster threats. The game stands out for its wacky premise and retro aesthetic. Sundae Month leans into the absurdity of a dolphin in combat gear, blending humor with intense action. Released in 2013, it draws comparisons to classic shooters with its pixel art visuals and straightforward gameplay. While lacking modern frills, its no nonsense approach has earned a niche audience. Available on PC, it remains a brief but brisk experience for fans of old school scrolling shooters.

Storyline

It is the year 2053 and militaries across the globe have resorted to using animals in order to combat the rampant terrorism of the future. By this point in time, technology has progressed in such a way that humans and animals can now effectively communicate with one another; this ultimately allows for true collaboration between man and animal. Within the US Navy Seals, one particular aquatic organism has been selected and isolated from all others to be trained for a singular purpose. That organism is the dolphin.
