Tyrian 2000

Tyrian 2000 is a fast and spectacular vertical shoot 'em up packed with enemy waves, huge explosions, weapon upgrades, and enough firepower to make subtlety completely unnecessary. Players pilot a spacecraft through a lengthy campaign, collecting money and equipment that can be used to improve their arsenal between missions. Multiple game modes and a huge selection of weapons give the experience considerable variety, while the colorful graphics and energetic soundtrack keep the action moving. The game combines traditional arcade shooting with a surprising amount of customization, allowing players to experiment with different weapon combinations and strategies. Tyrian 2000 remains one of the standout PC shoot 'em ups of its era, especially for anyone who enjoys games where the correct response to an enormous alien armada is simply to acquire a larger gun.
