              Year: 1995

Descpription: Strikers 1945 is a vertically scrolling shoot 'em up
arcade game released in 1995 by Japanese company Psikyo. Many fans
consider it to be an homage to Capcom's classic shooter 1942.

Each plane in Strikers 1945 has three attacks: A normal shot, a
charged shot, and a bomb that clears the screen of minor enemies
and bullets. Both the normal shot and the charged shot can be
strengthened by grabbing power-ups and extra bombs can be collected.

Gold bars, which are found by destroying certain buildings or enemies, can
be collected for bonus points. After the defeat of the final boss, the player's
time, number of gold bars, and number of enemies killed are added up for
each level and, if high enough, marked with a silver or gold medal.
