Strikers 1945 II (Arcade/Psikyo/1997 Shinden) [720p]
82Strikers 1945 II is a vertically scrolling shoot 'em up released in 1997 by Japanese company Psikyo. This game was also ported to the Sony PlayStation and Sega Saturn.
Continuing where the last game ended, the forces of CANY had been demolished by the previous Strikers' line-up. However, a small group known as the FGR stole the sources and technology responsible for the last events and planned to continue CANYs work by initiating world-warfare with massive mech technology. Once again, the Strikers are called into action.
The player chooses one of 6 WWII-era fighter craft and shoots through eight stages (the first four levels are randomly chosen, and the last four remain the same each play). Once the game is beaten, a report showing how well the player did is displayed, and the game 'loops' with the difficulty much higher. Each game (on default settings) begins with three lives, and an extend is earned at 600,000. When all lives are lost, the option to continue is given but the score is reset.
Each plane in the Strikers 1945 series has three attacks:
Normal shot (Tap the A button): A spray of bullets that can be strengthened by collecting power-ups.
Charge shot (Hold the A button until a sound is heard, then release): An attack that varies for each ship and is based upon a charge meter. The meter is composed of four levels ranging from empty to Level 3. The more the meter is filled, the greater the potency of the attack.
Bomb (Press the B button): An attack that varies for each ship, the bomb calls support craft to aid the player. They help block enemy bullets and also give support fire.
Shinden is a very powerful aircraft to use with a subweapon that will pierce through all the targets on it's way and a decent main shot weapon. As a special weapon it makes a "Samurai Sword" move that is devastating to all targets on it's way also bosses even on the lowest level of power. As a bomb attack it's good for clearing screen from projectiles and give you some time to rest from bullets.
