Fast Striker is a classic two-dimensional shoot'em up game, which was born as a fan project for Neo Geo and Dreamcast consoles. The production offers several gameplay modes, six levels, a comprehensive point system, as well as forty unique enemy types.
Fast Striker is a two-dimensional shoot-em'-up, in which we control a spacecraft fighting dozens of extremely dangerous aliens. The developer of this game is German studio NG:DEV.TEAM founded in 2001. The team specialized in homebrew productions for Neo Geo and Dreamcast retroconsoles. Fast Striker is the first work of the developer to be officially released on current-generation platforms.
This is a classic vertical shoot'em up. Like countless titles in the genre, players slowly travel through the linear level, fighting waves of enemies. The game offers a total of six different stages. Each of them ends with a duel with a large and powerful boss. In the course of the game, we fight a total of forty unique types of opponents.
The creators prepared a total of four difficulty levels, affecting the power and the number of opponents appearing on the screen. Going through the whole game using only one credit, you will get access to the bonus mini level, in which you will face the optional boss. After defeating it, we will unlock the true end of the title.
Fast Striker offers several gameplay modes. Each of them offers a slightly different point system or allows us to steer a different spacecraft with different combat capabilities and special attacks.
Fast Striker has full details and richly animated two-dimensional graphic design. The title operates at a constant speed of 60 frames per second.

Game Ratings for Fast Striker Video Game.
The Game Fanatics: 5.5 / 10
Fast Strikers is a title that is fun to play once or twice but doesn't have longevity or content to enjoy much longer than that.
Push Square: 5 / 10
In review, Fast Striker is a difficult, but scrappy homage to the shoot 'em ups of old. Its Neo Geo graphics, while nostalgic, don't particularly stand out, and use an ugly palette of colours. The lack of additional gameplay features, especially powerups is its most egregious sin, but the experience is still an enjoyable one, if only for ten minutes at a time. On a PS Vita and for short bursts, this could provide entertainment for a bus journey or two. On PS4, however, it doesn't cut the mustard, and fails to stand out from the many, many indie shoot 'em ups available on the Store.
Video Chums: 6.1 / 10 by A.J. Maciejewski
If you're a shoot 'em up aficionado who must play every single one in existence then Fast Striker will provide a worthwhile albeit unmemorable arcade-style experience.
