is a three-dimensional shoot 'em up released by Konami in 1997. A spin-off of the long running ''Gradius'' series, the title retains most of the gameplay characteristics of its 2D counterparts including the same enemies, protagonists, the selection bar power-up system and familiar settings. The player takes control of one of three spaceships, battling enemies and bosses in settings like underground tunnels, planet surfaces, and space fields. The game came in three versions, two wide stand-up arcade cabinet (one Japanese and one American), and a SpeedKing deluxe simulator. The SpeedKing is an enclosed pod which tilts, using pneumatics, according to the action occurring on-screen. The American standard version had its cockpit permanently attached with the game monitor, while on the Japanese version there were separated pieces for each one of them. ==Gameplay== The game play is similar to other 3D shooters like ''Star Fox'', where the player must move both horizontally and vertically. Like the other games in the Gradius series, there is no health bar, meaning one hit ends up in death; however, this time the player may be able to collect a "shield" power up which can take one hit or two hits before the ship's destruction. The other major gameplay change is the ability to adjust the speed, which is necessary to time the avoidance of certain obstacles and enemies. There are three ships to choose from: *BP 592A Vic Viper *LS-379G Lord British *WC-672H Alpinia The original levels of the first Japanese release are the following: *River Styx *Abyssal Forest *Curse *Speed Demon *Solar Assault 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Solar Assault」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
