In the 1980s and 1990s, an arcade game genre quietly emerged. They relied on their exciting gameplay. Once they were launched, they were sought after by a large number of old arcade game players. It has become the darling of almost all arcade halls, and flying shooting games have also become the eternal classics in the hearts of many post-80s players.
I believe that as long as you mention arcade flying shooting games, the first thing you think of should be thunder and lightning, yes, as one of the originators of global barrage games, Raiden does have an irreplaceable position in the hearts of many players. What other planes did you fly back then? Today, the editor will recall with you all!
Actually, in the early days when flying shooting arcade games appeared, they did not reach the corresponding height. Instead, appeared the fastest in the arcade hall and disappeared. The fastest game. It wasn't until the early nineties that shooting games really rose up, and a lot of classics appeared during this period.
and the most representative one is a shooting game developed by Seibu in 1990-"Raiden" , which is also this The representative work of flying shooting games is truly opening the door to shooting games for players.
In fact, the early "Raiden" well-known to players has two works, one is the first generation released in 1990, and the other is the sequel "Raiden 2" released in 1993. This game has really begun to push the barrage game to the world.
Since it comes to shooting games, the famous name of "Caijing" is naturally unforgettable , which has ruled the entire shooting game for more than ten years The long-standing leader, the word Caijing almost represents the arcade shooting game at that time in the hearts of many players.
In 1992, a shooting game "Four Kingdoms Fighter" launched by VIDEO SYSTEM suddenly exploded in the United States after a series of twists and turns, which also made this game popular. The chief creator Shin Nakamura became famous, and this young man declined the company’s high salary after achieving such a great success. resolutely established a studio of his own called PSIKYO, which translates to-"彩Beijing".
In the future, Caijing Studio said that the length is not long, and that the short is not short. In the past 10 years, it has brought us too many classic works. In the experience of After trying games like "Warring States ACE" and "Armed Flying Bird" , "Battery 1945", the masterpiece of Caijing Studio, finally appeared in front of the players.
Thanks to previous attempts in "Four Kingdoms Fighter", there are already three relatively mature attack methods in "Strikeman 1945": normal attack and charged attack And insurance. Moreover, the game also designed a different charging attack method for each fighter, which also made many players happy. In addition, the newly added gold coin system in this game also attracted many players who like to charge points.
As a major milestone in the history of flying shooting games, at that time, almost all large and small game halls will have the figure of "Batterer 1945". Although flying shooting games have appeared endlessly since then, the status of "Batterer 1945" in the hearts of players is still irreplaceable.
In 1996, Caijing took advantage of the heat and launched the sequel to "Warring States ACE", "Warring States Blade", which not only changed the game from vertical to horizontal scroll shooting, but also used the aircraft in the game. It becomes the character itself, and many optimizations have been made in the details of the game. For example, when the player controls the character, they can see their movements on the ground when they are in contact with the ground. Moreover, many players are refreshed in the interaction of characters and the setting of multiple endings.
Time until 2001, "Zero Fighter 2" came out, this is also Caijing’s last work , compared to the previous work, " "Zero Fighter 2" not only has a great degree of experimentation in the game mechanics, not only has its own machine been greatly adjusted, but also canceled the bomb system. Although it is the last work, "Zero Fighter 2" is still flying It has a good position in shooting games.
After 2002, with the rise of computers and the Internet, the arcade game industry has suffered an unprecedented blow, and Caijing games have since been sluggish and disappeared in the long history of arcade games. Among. Immediately afterwards, CAVE took the "Angry Boss Bee" to set off the third upsurge of flying shooting games , "Barrage STG" game, this nightmare of countless players appeared.
Although today’s flying shooting games are no longer glorious, the speed of the game field update is beyond our control. Therefore, I believe that flying shooting games are in After a period of dormancy, there will always be the day reappears in the center of the game field, because it carries the youthful memories of countless old arcade game players for 30 years!
Okay, that’s all for today. Because of the limited space, there must be many games that I couldn’t write. I don’t know if you still remember which ones were in the arcade. What about the "flying plane" game that impressed you in the hall? Welcome everyone to leave a message in the comment area, let's discuss it together!
