A polarity-switching vertical shooter from Treasure
The briefing
In Ikaruga, the island nation of Horai and its leader, Tenro Horai, wield the mysterious power of the Ubusunagami Okinokai to conquer other nations in the name of peace. The freedom federation Tenkaku is nearly destroyed, leaving the surviving pilot Shinra as its last hope.
Rescued and nursed back to health in the remote village of Ikaruga, Shinra is entrusted with the Ikaruga fighter. Built by the village with the guidance of former engineering genius Amanai, the craft is the first fighter designed to integrate both energy polarities and switch between them.
