Sky Rogue dev explains the game's lack of story
Coming from a NintendoPlay interview with Kenny Backus of Fractal Phase...
Having no explicit story was very intentional. It is a common thing in the action flight sim niche (ace combat, hawx, etc) to have a frankly very bad story which gets in the way of gameplay and worsens the experience. I was looking to distinguish myself from the pack. There is a narrative but it's only hinted at in aeropedia descriptions but otherwise left to the players' imagination.
