Pilot a fighter through six vertical scrolling stages, destroying bosses to attack an enemy base.
Solar Striker was developed by Minakuchi Engineering and published by Nintendo exclusively for the Game Boy, first released in Japan on January 26, 1990, with North American and European releases later that same year. It is an original Game Boy title, not a port, so the original release year is also 1990.
Solar Striker is a vertical scrolling shooter for the Game Boy. The player pilots a fighter ship called the SolarStriker on a mission to destroy the Reticulon base.
Progress is made through six distinct stages, each culminating in a confrontation with a boss that must be defeated. The game is considered one of the early titles in its genre for the platform.
