s1945p: MAME ROM Information.


History:

Strikers 1945 Plus (c) 1999 Psikyo.


After inserting quarters and hitting the Start button, the player chooses one of 6 planes (plus 1 hidden plane) or can opt for a random choice.


The available fighters are :

* P-38 Lightning

* Vought XF5U 'Flying Pancake'

* Spitfire Mk. VI

* Zero Type 52

* Focke Wulf Ta 152

* Fiat G.56

* XP-55 Ascender (Hidden)


The first 4 stages are in random order, while the last 4 are sequential. Players collect weapon powerups, bombs, and gold bars for points. Each plane has a unique 'supershot' which is charged by damaging enemies and fired by holding then releasing the fire button. Supershots can be stored, although the number varies from plane to plane. Using a Bomb results in a large friendly fighter swooping onto the screen and blocking shots while returning fire for a few seconds.


After the player beats the final boss, the game starts again from the beginning, albeit at a much higher difficulty level. All level are similar to the ones in Strikers 1945 II. Only one of the 4 bosses that are randomly chosen and the 6th boss is changed.
