The game is about spreading Managed Democracy to protect our way of life, with tip screens like “If an alien ever attempts to engage in negotiation, SHOOT THEM. We mustn’t believe their lies,” and “Helldivers who fail an objective do not get sent to freedom camps. This is merely a dissident rumor,” and “Remember: FREEDOM!”
There’s an entire mission objective based on raising a flag while you salute it, with cameras recording it for the millions of innocent civilians back home you’re protecting with the gentle outreach of an iron fist.
While spreading peace through the galaxy, your character will shout things like “Say hello to democracy!”, “Freedom never sleeps!”, “How about a nice cup of liber-tea?!”, “How do you like the taste of FREEDOM?!”, and “You’ll never destroy our way of life!”
The PA on the ship announces things like “Every bullet fired is a freedom seed planted in the hearts of our enemies,” and “Do not think of rebels as human. If our views are alien to them, they are alien to us.”

The game might have a slight satirical lean.
