Synopsis

Tetrastar The Fighter is a 3D shooting game by Home Data and published by Taito. In the year 2089, humanity forms an alliance with the intergalactic empire Baal but soon Earth discovers the alien's true intentions. A resistance group assembles Project Tetrastar to prepare for the potential threat to come. But the project led by General Nelson was soon put on hold and a short-lived peace settled. But the whole thing was just a hostile invasion and the Baal Empire eventually breaks the alliance and attacks Earth. The player's first mission is to prevent the destruction of New York, then recover Omega, the faithful robot-navigator, to drift towards the alien world. The Tetrastar super fighter can move around the screen and fire a standard Vulcan gun. Special weapons are available later in the game: Bombs (WID), Homing Missiles (AAM), Napalm Bombs (NAP) and the powerful Bio Cannon (BIO) - these are accessed via the Select button and triggered by pressing A. They all come in limited quantities and must be refilled by picking up power pods along the way. Tetrastar features lovely scenes and cutscenes that reveal the game's episodic story.
