V.A.F., which stands for Video Arcade Fighters, was created from scratch in Multimedia Fusion v1.2. V.A.F. Squadron began with a roster of six ships. The first ship is the original ship, the Amada Vipros, created and named by early contributor Isotoxin. The other five ships were guest fighters from other games. The Raiden mk-II and Judge Spear were included, as they are part of the Raiden Fighters guest roster. The other guest fighters are the two player ships from the 1987 Tecmo shmup, Gemini Wing, named Gemini Blue and Gemini Red, and the Solvalou from 1982's Xevious by Namco. When the name of the game was changed to Xeno Fighters, it was decided to add more original ships. Three new original ships were created and named by Isotoxin as well. They would replace three of the V.A.F. Squadron guest fighters. The Gemini Blue was replaced by the Phyxius, the Gemini Red was replaced by the Zaiva, and the Solvalou was replaced by the Xelcor. The Raiden mk-II and the Judge Spear remained as guest fighters, and the Vic Viper was added later. A fourth guest fighter was the second incarnation of the Solvalou, given new weaponry. |
