The game's plot has multiple elements that parallel with the first Star Wars movie, although it's unclear whether this was intentional or not. Both involve:
• A princess being captured in her space ship by an evil empire while she is carrying vital data. The princess then gives the data to a robot to send help.
• The robot with the data proceeds to crash land on the planet below in the desert.
• Also, later in the game, upon first encountering Princess Milian in her cell, she is laying in the same pose as Princess Leia in Star Wars: A New Hope when she is rescued from her prison cell by Luke Skywalker.
