  • Great SHMUP that is fun and accessible, especially on easier modes.
  • Offers a variety of difficulty settings, making it suitable for both beginners and hardcore players.
  • Solid port of a classic arcade game with satisfying gameplay and distinct planes to choose from.
  • The port feels barebones, lacking features like a practice mode, save states, and a quit button.
  • Visual presentation suffers from excessive letterboxing and a lack of full-screen options.
  • Gameplay can be frustrating due to the high difficulty, especially with certain planes being less effective.
  • music
    13 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The music in the game receives mixed reviews; while some players appreciate its nostalgic 90's vibe and find it fitting for the game's theme, others feel it lacks excitement and has not aged well. Overall, the soundtrack is described as decent but unremarkable, with some noting that it doesn't stand out compared to classics in the genre.

    • “I really like the music, filled with all the 90's goodness the game has to offer.”
    • “Back to the game, the graphics are nice and sharp, the music is excellent.”
    • “Some people were getting burned out and it wasn't quite as possible and for a time we had real gems released in the genre like Lightning Force (Thunder Force 4 - best music in a shooter ever), M.U.S.H.”
    • “The sound and music aren't anything special, but work for the theme strikers are going for.”
    • “Nothing too exciting added and the soundtrack hasn't aged too well, but all-in-all you can't go wrong with this classic for $10.”
    • “The visuals, sound and music may not be to everyone's liking.”
  • graphics
    8 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The graphics are generally praised for being nice and sharp, complemented by great effects. However, the overall aesthetic, particularly the muted palette reminiscent of WWII, may not appeal to everyone. The accompanying music is also noted as excellent.

    • “Nice graphics, great effects.”
    • “Back to the game, the graphics are nice and sharp, the music is excellent.”
    • “I personally don't mind Strikers 1945's general WWII aesthetic and overall muted palette.”
    • “The visuals, sound, and music may not be to everyone's liking.”
    • “I personally don't mind the Strikers 1945 general WWII aesthetic and overall muted palette.”
  • gameplay
    6 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The gameplay has received mixed reviews, with some players finding it generic and unsatisfactory, while others praise its fun mechanics, great level design, and engaging boss battles. Overall, the experience seems to vary significantly among players, with a notable divide between those who enjoy the action and those who feel it lacks depth.

    • “Fun gameplay, great level design, cool bosses, epic action.”
    • “The gameplay is very generic and weak, and I already saw the whole game six times.”
  • story
    4 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's story is poorly conveyed, with minimal narrative elements presented through subpar English that resembles 90s machine translation. Players find the storytelling lacking, as it fails to integrate meaningfully into the gameplay experience.

    • “Nothing of the story is relayed in the game itself, and what writing it has is in terrible English, reminiscent of 90s machine translation.”
  • humor
    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Players find the humor in the game particularly enjoyable, with specific mention of the "monkey difficulty" being a standout source of amusement. The comedic elements contribute positively to the overall gaming experience.

    • “Ohhh and that monkey difficulty is just too funny!”
