Sega Saturn ~ Stellar Assault SS JPN ~ Mission 1

1st Mission of Stellar Assault SS for Sega Saturn. Craft used: Feather-01 - armed with heavy pulse lasers, swarming look-on missiles and the assault field.
Played with Saturn Mission Stick.

Released in early 1998 by Sims who also did the predecessor Stellar Assault on the Sega 32X system.
Technically impressive: lighting, particles and debris, dynamic missile trails, fully textured spacecrafts and environments, transparencies, fully voice-driven radio communication, catchy chip-generated soundtrack, battles with dozens of ships and next to no slowdown. Sims really did incredible things on the given hardware. add varied and interesting missions and an engrossing story that makes you want to play straight to the end - simply another hidden gem in the Sega Saturn import library.

unfortunately...acquiring a copy will tear a deep hole in your wallet as the game seems hard to come by these days, with prices starting from 11,000YEN/100USD minimum.

Mission 1:

Earth is being bombarded with asteroids from the asteroid belt. Hawk Squadron is send to perform scans of the unknown enemy and the device(known as Acceleration Gate) used to launch the asteroids.
Note that the Ships and Support Devices(carrier units) have thier own unique A.I.s
