Lore/World Setting:

An Ace in a Maze is set in a world where mountains and plateaus rise high into the sky. The air up in these mountainy heights is very thin and airplanes that try to fly above them often end up stalling. Luckly there are plenty of canyons where planes can safely fly without stalling. Naturally, people started holding races; it is only human nature of course to be competitive. Despite the risks, daredevils and speedsters would fly through the canyons sometimes nearly missing the steep walls. Some of the cleverer speedsters figured out they could use air canisters to supply their engines with a small supply of oxygen allowing them to fly above the canyons for a short period of time without stalling. You are one such clever speedster. Your plane is fitted with new canisters and you're ready to make some new records. Good luck, ace!
