Solar Strike was a flash game I scored in 2010. Its full, ridiculously long name was Intergalactic Supernova Solar Strike Defender Versus The Evil Giant One Eyed Space Crab Of Doom. It's a space shooter, sort of a semi-three dimensional SHMUP.

This was one of my first game music commissions (only one track). It was produced before I got into using Cubase. The different parts were exported from Melody Assistant and then layered in Audacity. Listening to it now, I cringe a little bit at the audio quality, but the composition itself is nice.

I've provided the Flash file (a .SWF) on this page, since in-browser support for the Flash player has been discontinued.

I also interviewed the creator of this game, SantoNinoDeCebu. You can read his interview here.
