Description

 

 

Flying Shark is an arcade game developed by Toaplan published by Taito in 1987. (Its original title was Hishou Zame; the US title was Sky Shark [licensed to Romstar for distribution]).

Piloting a bi-plane, the player needs to take out land based targets such as tanks and turrets and shoot enemy airplanes in order to collect special pickups to increase the plane's firepower. According to the story of Batsugun, the pilot of the bi-plane was called Rom Schneider.

Flying Shark was converted to the Amiga, Commodore 64, ZX Spectrum, Amstrad CPC, Atari ST, and Nintendo Entertainment System.

There was also a sequel, Fire Shark (also distributed by Romstar in the US). It was released for the Sega Genesis and Arcade in 1990 and is called Same! Same! Same! in Japan.
