	L'histoire de Toaplan
		Toaplan est aujourd’hui une société légendaire pour les fans de jeux d’arcade, et ce statut de légende n’a pas été acquis par hasard.
		Toaplan a su s’entourer de compositeurs doués pour orchestrer les musiques de leurs jeux, comme Tatsuya Uemura, très connu dans le milieu du jeu-vidéo, qui composa les musiques de Tiger Heli, Flying Shark, Twin Cobra, Hellfire, Zero Wing, Dougyuun et Out Zone, puis partit plus tard chez Raizing en tant que développeur.
		Un autre compositeur reconnu ayant travaillé chez Toaplan est le talentueux Masanori Yuge ayant composé les musiques de Slap Fight, Truxton 1 et 2, Twin Hawk, Fire Shark, Vimana et V-Five, entre autres.

		Toaplan also released a year later a revised special version of Batsugun that is more manic than the original, with a whole host of extra features, inc extra game loops, more intricate scoring/experience mechanism, a one hit force field, more powerful bombs and an arranged soundtrack.
		Toaplan certainly reached their peak, graphically, with Batsugun, creating one of the most hateful bosses that have been encountered.
		With Toaplans final game the company saw fit to release not only their best shooter to date, but also a title that spawned a whole new sub genre of shooting game.

		In the spirit of Toaplan shooters from the 80's and early 90's Outzone is one tough cookie of a game.
		At that time, a message was posted to U.N. The message said that there were excellent cyborg soldiers who undertake battle with money in the remote region, so-called "Out Zone", of the galaxy system.
		Your task is to take command of one of two cyborg marines sent in to eradicate all the marauding alien scum from their homeworld - a region called the 'Outzone' - through 7 long and extremely challenging levels - complete with a full compliment of very tricky to defeat end-of-stage guardians.

		My worry is that games will move closer and closer to a cinematic experience so that all you can do in the end is select your camera angle and lose all freedom that games could have.

	Fire Shark - videogame classics
		Toaplan was the famed Japanese developer that probably did more to advance the vehicle shooter genre than anyone.
		Toaplan shooters cannot be easier to grasp – shoot or be shot – but they require a skillful combination of reflexes and memorization that punishes the casual.
		There are a string of classics created by Toaplan from 1986’s Slap Fight to 1993's Batsugun, each brilliant and somehow unique in its own way.

		At this time, there was still an atmosphere in Toaplan where characters in a shooter were not only unnecessary, but a pain.
		I was a "two-year graduate of Toaplan" (laughs).
		Sure there were some Toaplan fans that joined, but I think they would've been caught in the interview (laughs).

		Toaplan was the original publisher of Batsugun and many of you may recognize their name.
		Toaplan published the classics Truxton and Fire Shark which were later released on the Mega-Drive/Genesis console.
		The original Batsugun came out in the arcades in 1993 so you will excuse Toaplan if their graphics are not up to speed with today's rendered, glistening, prettier than thou game art.

		Toaplan was to shooters what Punk was to rock and roll.
		You don't need to be a god to play it, but it taps into this pre-human instinctive dodge/kill festival that will put a smile on anyone's face who has the patience to play a game made in 1989.
		Toaplan taught me how to dodge and weave and shoot the crap out of every living (and non-living) thing.

	Batsugun - GameInnovation (Site not responding. Last check: )
		Batsugun is a vertically scrolling shoot 'em up developed and published by Japanese game developer Toaplan, who have since gone out of business.
		Often in Manic shooters the collision zone of the player craft is greatly reduced, sometimes to as little as one pixel, to allow the players to maneuver through small gaps in the waves of bullets that can sometimes cover the entire screen.
		Many ex-employees of Batsugun's now defunct developer Toaplan went on to work for Japanese game developer Cave, who are well-known as one of the leading creators of Manic shooters.

	SHMUPS!
		Another excellent theme is "Blue Illumination", a slow-paced song that plays during the ending credits and really gives a sense of melancholy (after all, they're the ending credits of the last Toaplan shmup...damn,a sec, i need to wipe off the tears!).Now, the special version has the same BGM,but the Saturn port...
		The Arcade versions have a decent, "old skool" BGM with a vaguely pop/rock style,which suits fine the game without being too memorable.The Saturn port has a rearranged version which is musically better and closer to "normal" music, but it sounds a bit muffled.
		Toaplan and Cave have something else in common - a passion with bees.
