Outlive is a science-fiction-themed real-time strategy game that carries the indelible mark of Starcraft. In fact, from the moment you're presented with the 640x480 default graphics and the game's perspective (which is virtually identical to that of Starcraft) to the first time you hear the unit acknowledgements, it's like a flashback to 1998. The two games are similar in overall looks, and some of the unit graphics directly resemble their Starcraft counterparts. For instance, the memorable firebat unit voice-over from Blizzard's game has a close counterpart in Outlive's functionally similar flamethrower unit. There are even special hero units with signature voice acknowledgements. It's as though the Outlive designers had set out to design a Starcraft tribute game.
