THE STORY
GoldSkull - his sensitive golden skull unable to withstand the
excessive noise radiating from earth - destroys our planet.
Our hero - on a mission of revenge - must navigate the space
rubble, destroy GoldSkull’s army of loons, follow the golden
skulls, and then maybe, just maybe, with the luck of the gods,
find and face-off against the immaculate GoldSkull.
