Pulstar (パルスター) for the SNK Neo Geo CD. Developed by Aicom and published directly by SNK, this legendary horizontal shoot-’em-up made its high-profile retail debut on store shelves in Japan on October 27, 1995. SNK and Aicom unleash the absolute peak of 16-bit graphical simulation and space combat intensity with the staggeringly detailed side-scrolling mechanics of Pulstar on the Neo Geo CD. Stepping into the cockpit of the advanced Dino246 starfighter, players blast through a grueling, tactical campaign to defend humanity from a ruthless, hive-minded biomechanical alien armada. Moving away from brainless arcade bullet-hells, the tactical gameplay demands flawless spatial strategy: players collect weapon power-ups to modify their primary configurations, manipulate a front-mounted weapon pod module known as the "Voyager" to serve as an active shield or trailing weapon, and carefully master a two-tier charge shot engine. Showcasing an incredible, fully pre-rendered 3D visual backdrop alongside beautiful, console-exclusive animated cinematic cutscenes between stages and an upgraded high-fidelity CD audio soundstage, this masterpiece delivers an absolute crown jewel monument for elite shooter purists and retro software collectors worldwide
