The player's character is the pilot of an experimental space fighter.
Who needs 2D when we've got 3D? 3D, or 3 dimensions, is what we're used to seeing in almost every game these days, letting us do all sorts of awesome stuff like run in circles!
Specific locations with certain characteristics are used to travel interstellar distances instantly, though the portals themselves are invisible.

The game can be played from a 'chase-cam' view behind the player's spacecraft.
One mission involves the player manning a turret on the side of an immobile capital ship.
