About

In 1945, the second world war ended. Soon, there was peace, but an organization of high-ranking military officers from all over the world form a global army known as CANY. Their mission was to conquer the world. CANY activity was found in areas like the Soviet Union, America, Japan, and even Germany. It is revealed that CANY had weapons never seen before from rockets to mechanical walkers. The world quickly formed a group of pilots and planes called the Strikers whose mission is to rid of CANY from the world.

AI-powered picks based on gameplay, mechanics & feel

Ikaruga

Like Strikers 1945, Ikaruga is a masterclass in the vertical-scrolling shoot 'em up genre, but it introduces a unique polarity-switching mechanic that adds a layer of strategic challenge beyond pure bullet dodging.

91% Match

Jamestown+

Jamestown+ provides a modern take on the classic vertical shmup formula, blending intense bullet-hell action with a compelling alternate-history narrative and robust cooperative play, echoing the arcade spirit of Strikers 1945.

85% Match

Cuphead

While not a shmup, Cuphead channels the same relentless, pattern-based boss battles and high-stakes action as Strikers 1945, wrapped in a stunning 1930s cartoon aesthetic that makes every death feel like a lesson.
