Triumphant Takeoff

StarFlipper

What fan of classic gaming could forget the inimitable Star Flipper, a shooter that put players in control of the Wild Space Patrol (W.A.S.P., the A. appearing intermittently and standing for nothing) in their efforts to vanquish all evildoers of the galaxy. Their primary weapon? Solid and lighthearted horizontal shooting that played like a mix of Stinger and Gradius.

Something always stood out about that exciting first stage, and a lot of it probably had to do with the music. It matched the exuberant feel provided by the ever-fading stratosphere, as our blue sky made way for deep space and a whole mess of nasty alien enemies. Relive those moments, brave spaceman!
