I'm speaking more from my experience as
a gamer than as a game developer when I say that games on a portable
device like the PSVita should be a little different. What I mean is
that the very nature of a portable gaming device means that you will
be playing your game with more potential interruptions. When you sit
down to play a game on your home console or PC, you can become very
dedicated and immersed in the experience. There are fewer urgent
demands that will require you to suddenly drop what you're doing and
leave your game in that environment, but with a portable device the
number of distractions and interruptions increases significantly,
depending on where you are. If you're at work, a client showing up or
a boss walking into your office is not an uncommon situation, and
unless you don't care about keeping your job, you'll probably put
that device down immediately. If you're at school, a teacher or a
class bell might put a pause on your gaming. If you're on a subway,
that next stop might be yours. Thankfully, though, the PSVita has a
standby mode that can be initiated at the quick press of a button,
pausing the game until you initiate it again. You can pick up right
where you left off, which is an excellent feature for RPG games,
since this genre often requires “save points” be found in the
game to save progress.
As seven alien races struggle to co-exist in an uneasy alliance, the Inter-Stellar Union sends Union Guard agents on missions to preserve the crucial balance. These specialized operatives must do what regional security cannot, dealing with smugglers, pirates, terrorists, and even greater challenges in order to bring stability to a universe that needs it desperately. Without the Union Guard, the races will not be prepared to face a looming alien threat they can only hope to defeat together.
